If you want to prepared for CAT exams, then you can easily take a break to prepare for CAT exams because for CAT entrance exams, you have to prepared in advance. If you prepared for this exams for 1 year, you will definately get good marks and you will get
good colleges of MBA............

you can prepare side by side and give exam,if u succeed,your one year will be saved,if not, then you can try next year
all the best...

hi, u told that ur just completed 3rd year. it is better to prepare for CAT from now onwards. because one year is so valuable. with personal experience am saying.it is not good to drop.
all the best.

I dont think so !

Why to drop a year when you can prepare for same without droping, just appear for it if you cant get good then fo next time, while doing any part time work you can also prepare for it side by side. Dont forget you are an Engineer and Work experiance will make your career prospect even better and much better.

So, I think first time you have to appear for CAT when you have given your finals then if not good rank get into some part time work related to you field, and prepare for it simultaneously, it would be better.

Check out if you think by Droping you can deliver your best then its Ok not problem, but if you have even a little doubt then so as I explained.

However, decision is your's Remember no one can Judge you better then yourself.

taking one year gap is accepted but don't devote the entire time for study....do a job side by side as well so that you can gain valuable work ex and if you don't get into good college you can continue working....also start preparing now as it will give you more practice.....

Hmmm...Dropping One year for a CAT is worth given..Donn think You are going to crack it in 2 to 3 months time period...But yes you can do one thing if you are almost done aiming for a CAT then do Join top class Institutes for the preperation lke career launcher in delhi, T.I.M.E in bangalore and I.M.S in chennai....and it could be even better to do job along with it related to your science veritcal...And yes Mind mah words , you will only get into Top six IIM'S when you have scored atleast 99.6 percentile in your C.A.T. exam...So road ahead is full of bumps but you can cross it dilligently with proper dedication ....

all the best in all your Endeavours...

Well I must say you could do even better if you drop your year for the preps..But do one thing like u said you are a 3rd year B tech. student go for a CAT 2010 exam also ..Hence it will assess your overall performance about where you stand in all the sections and which part is your strength and which one is your weakness and after that work hard on your strengths to turn them into personality add and do the same for weakness too...after then prepare for CAT 2011 with best coaching Institutes.


Sincerity ,Accuracy, Dedication ,time management, Leniency , Strong fundamentals and Regular practice are the keys for dynamic performance....Always remember you are not the stronger one in your town hence it will lead you to become overrated and over confident personality and you will not get what exactly you are looking for in all your Endeavour but still you are not the weaker one so Start preparing for it and BELL THE C.A.T......

if you drop one year then your preparation will be good and you can easily clear CAT exam and get admission in a good mba college. But you must also try this year. May be you will get a good college without wasting one year.

dear,
if you want, then obviously do so for your better preparation. but don't lose time in this gap.
all the luck.

hey, u hv completed ur 3rd year,,now u hv one year..why dont u start preparing today ?? if you do so then you can save your one year....

i want to know more details bou CAT

u can take a yr off. but make sure u work during that time, get 1yr work experience,, then u can write CAT and do MBS... doing MBA after getting work experience is better..

being enrolled in btech programme, when is the perfect time to start preparing for cat?

hello friend
it is completely depend on your skills and capability that when you start your preparation

i would sugges that as you are in 3rd year you must have started your preparation
you donot need to waste a year to prepare for cat exam
you must go for preparations from now only and do well
hope you will be selected in the first attempt

if you are not able to do then you can go for a job and side by side prepare for the cat exam

i think that being a btech student u should not drop a year
u should prepare along ur college and if not selected should join the job and then again try after 1 yaera

hi friend
as your preparation is not very well then it is really good for you to take gap after your graduation so that you can score well in the exam,but i will suggest one thing that take coaching for the prepration

hi friend.
actually its upto your will power that how much effort you can give on your studies and how much do you have self confidence on youurself.its good to drop one year if you like,go to tuitions and study more and more.then you will get your result and reward respectively.

dear friend,
as you are in 3rd year you must have started your preparationyou do not need to waste a year to prepare for cat exam,you must go for preparations from now only and do well,hope you will be selected in the first attempt

no,its fully wrong.
yes,one thing you can do,that is you can join some job.
cat is a very tough exam.

dear friend,


CAT is a very tough exam.......... for preparing CAT u can drop one year.

but u have to take good preparation for CAT. for that u have to study well

throughout the year.. u have to solve many competitive books to crack these

type of exam. if u work hard from now then i hope u can do it in first attempt.

all the best.

dear student,
u know CAT conduct one of the toughest exam,but at the same if u able to qualify as a fresher it will a big bonus to u,so it is upto u,go according to your strength..
with best wishes

No, Never try to drop any year in between the academic because it shows a bad impression towards the interviewer.

You can try the CAT exan while you are in the job ,jost do it simultaneously..

Or try to start te preparation while you are in the final year of your academics...

Best wishes..

dear friend,
actually this matter totally depends upon you.
but,i'm giving you an idea if you capable to take preparation side by side in your running study,it will be better for you.
if you drop in between your academic it may be bad in future.
so, friend keep hard work.i think you will be succed in future.
best of luck

Dear friend,
yes you can drop one year for CAT preparation if you are that much dedicated for CAT exam.you can join any Coaching institute and start preparing for the exam.one full year preparation will definetely give you good result for MBA.
Good Luck!

dear friend
if you want to crack CAT exam then you will prepared from btech third year.......one year gap is not good ....you can join the industry after Btech and prepared for CAT ........your industrial experience will provide you benefits at the time of campusing....................

best of luck...................

In my opinion It will be a good idea to drop For 1 year for CAT preparation beacause ITs the time when you are in a flow to study...Because once you start to do a job...You wont get enough time to prepare for CAT...So try waiting an study sincerely for CAT...YOU will surely crack CAT easily and then you can join MBA...And increase you salary to a great Extent...

some of the Good coaching Centres for CAT are ..

IMS http://www.imsindia.com

TIME etc.

Good luck !!

dear friend

as you are in third year now and you want to prepare for CAT 2011.

you have time in your hand now you can prepare well for the future.

but if you got failed to do well .

then you can take a year drop for preparation.

as we all know that CAT is one of the toughest exam. so iot is not that easy to prepare well.

all the best.

Dear friend;

Education is for life but life is not for education.

So how you think to lapse one year of your

life . So without droping one year after btech

you crack the CAT Exam.

dear friend,

you have enough time for the preparation of CAT exam.

do hard labour from now.if you do preparation well from now then there will be no need to drop for one year.

but if you won't get success in CAT exam then you should drop for one year.it will benefits you lot.

all the best.

CAT is one of the toughest exam. so it is not that easy to prepare well.you have time in your hand now you can prepare well for the future.you can prepare for same without dropping, just appear for it if you cant get good then for next time, while doing any part time work you can also prepare for it side by side.

Very well, said Rajesh.

I agree with you, even I am not in the support of droping a year because "A MAn can wait for Right Time in his Life, but Time never waits for anyone"

dear friend,

no, it is not good to drop one year for CAT exam.

all the best.

dear friend,

i think it will not be in your interest to drop one year for CAT.

you have lot of time.do hard labour to clear CAT exam in first attempt.you can do it.don't waste your valuable time.

all the best.

Dear friend,
In my opinion it is a good idea to drop noe year for CAT preparations after b.tech.you can dedicate full one year for CAT preparations and join any coaching institute and you wil definately do good result.
All The Best!!!!!!

dropping a year after Btech all depends on you. As how is your financial condition whether it supports you or not and how keen you are to crack the exam. If really sincere and you think you can, but think you will have to give your 1 precious year for it. it should not proove a wastage.
As today to beat any competetion is very tough and hard work is required in every field. When it comes to build up a good carer you have to make many crucial decisions of life. Many are there who after certain period of time attain there goal through their hard work and devotion. But others just keep on wandering and wasting the time and year and year again.
Being a Btech you can even join the job but all upto you how you want to mould your careera nd fate.

yes, if you are really keen to prepare for CAT exam you can drop your 1 year but you need to prepare well because your you will be sacrificing your precious 1 year.
Remember it is one of the tough exam
So best of luck!

i dont think that you waste 1 year for cat preparation.................as u have just completed 3rd yr b.tech.....so dont waste enough time by doing the non-sense project......by the way
in 4th year workload is less............so as you have decided your objective...start the mission from today..............you can start your mission by ordering the materials of ims.............
good luck!!

it is a good idea to take a drop if u want to join top colleges

For CAT u should be regular in your studies nd if u have enough stamina to cope up with job as well as CAT preparation it is best option to not to drop a year

because cat is one of the toughest exam in the country.
best of luck

hi,
i think you should start serious preparations from the start of third year,its considered to be the best time.
you should also go for coaching after the completion of third year in institutes like TIME.
all the best

dear friend,
Droping one precious year is not a wise thinking.
You will face some common problem that why you took one year after completion of your B.Tech. something like that.

So,i suggest you to take preparation for CAT during the B.tech course.
But if you will get IIM after taking one year drop then it may be affordable.

good luck.

hi friend,

There is some different story happens in case of CAT exam, since this exam is conducted in the month of november, you may easily see that even if you drop for the year , you are basically dropping for only 4 months(because you will only have 4 months after your engineering to prepare for CAT exam) . Which are quite a few, and I dont think so that one who really wants to prepare for a year will prepare in this short spam of time.
So you can follow two plans:
Either you start preparing now by taking a weekend tuition and join a test series weekly at the end of engineering.
Or you start your preparation after your engineering both regular classes as well as test series for the period of 4 months.

It is not a good idea of taking drop after Btech for cat preparation.
You can carry your prepare from 3rd year and can clear CAT in final year number of student follow this way for CAT and save time.
If you already clear your BE then you can join company for showing you are not free during 1 year and have genuine reason to show that you have not any year gap.

after btech there is no need of dropping year coz after one year u think that there is no need to study more

Hey please don't think of wasting one precious year for CAT training.

You can go through CAT training from institutes like TIMES which offer you a good training course for 1 year/6 months.

You can go through the training when your in the fourth year because the 2nd semester comprises of project so better go for training in the fourth year.

all the best
