F it, we ball.
CAT 2023 was horrendous for me. Gave up my job to prepare for CAT and ended up with a 81 percentile score. It was expected, given my best scores in the 15 odd mocks I took was 35.
Fast forward to today, I gave my first mock of the season. I don't think if it is the same for all the repeaters but the first mock you give after performing horribly in CAT is as nerve wrecking as the actual exam. My only goal was to breach the 40 mark range.
Ended up with 63 (33-18-12). From thinking about quitting at one point to preparing with a full time job, this gives me hope that I can still do it. I know this score means shit and chances are, I'll end up with a 20 in the next mocks but atleast I won't curse myself to sleep tonight saying I should've given the CA final exam instead of wasting my time solving puzzles everyday.
If I do end up with bad scores again, you know how it goes -
Fuck it, we ball.
