Hi Arti Congrats.. I normally don%u2019t read this question answer page but today when I saw advise by a CAT Topper, I was curious to read it. Reason being that I also appeared for CAT 2003. I couldn%u2019t get through any of the CAT recognized colleges and finally cleared PG program in Fashion Management from NIFT. Today I am working in the fashion and retail industry. I am very Happy but I always wondered what went wrong in my CAT exam, as my father was very keen on me studying Finance. After reading your answers I agree that it is the mindset and the Temperament on the D-day that is very important. But don%u2019t you think that the intelligence and common sense is also a key player? All the best!!!
