For fourth year B-Tech student <keyword id="4048862" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="yash-choudhari">Yash Choudhari</keyword>, who hails from Maharashtra, scoring a 100 percentile in the CAT exam meant he would get his big ticket to his dream college - IIM Ahmedabad or Bangalore. 
 
<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/cat-2016-toppers-reveal-how-they-scored-100-percentile-in-one-of-indias-toughest-exam/articleshow/56425007.cms">If he does, he is ready to turn down the job offer he already has from placements in his college</a>. 
 But it's a different story for another topper <keyword id="13079" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rahul-Sharma">Rahul Sharma</keyword> who hails from Delhi. Sharma didn't want to get into an IIM, because he is already an IIM-Ahmedabad Graduate. That means he was taking the CAT test for the second time, but he had an entirely different purpose to appear for the exams this year. 
 Ask him, and he says he wanted to teach his students how to score well. Having successfully cleared the CAT exam earlier, and graduating from IIM Ahmedabad in 2011, Rahul spends his time counselling and coaching students at <keyword id="70041" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Career-Launcher">Career Launcher</keyword> institute in Delhi. 
 
He took the exam to score a perfect 100, because till he didn't have it to his credit, how would his students consider him to be their idol. 
 
Now, meet another CAT topper from Kolkata- Nilanjan Dutta. He too scored a perfect 100 percentile in CAT 2016. 
 
An XLRI Jamshedhpur passout, Dutta currently works as Business Consultant with an IT Firm. He too topped the CAT exams, but says he has no plans of taking admissions in any of the IIMs. Satisfied with his current job, he says he just appeared for the exam for his self-satisfaction! 
 
Dutta did not taking any coaching on purpose, and wanted to prove his self-worth. "In 2011, I gave my first attempt and scored 99.43 percentile. I just wanted to get 100 percentile for once." 
 
His takeaway from CAT 2016 and a sincere advice to future aspirants is -“A lot of students often end up wasting time over tough questions and become over-ambitious about attempting more questions. Instead, think of it carefully and attempt just the number of questions needed.” 
 
Choudhari, meanwhile, feels that the CAT test has become easier over the years. When he appeared for it back in 2008, "it was still on pen and paper. Now, it has to be taken online". He didn't have too much of an advice for students, but his takeaway was - there is a need for teachers/coaches to keep up with the times. 
 
"I need to know what I'm teaching my students..."

Reasons why these 2 CAT Toppers took the exam this year will leave you stunned. No, they didn't want to get into the IIMs

RCB will host CSK in the 68th fixture <keyword id="19911541" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="IPL-2024" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="IPL 2024" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="IPL 2024">IPL 2024</keyword> encounter at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday. There is a lot of threat of rain in an all-important clash between RCB-CSK. This encounter is supposed to be crucial as it will decide the fourth and final team for the playoffs of the ongoing 17th edition of the cash-rich league. The evening views remain dull with a 60% chance of rain around the match's start time of 7.30 pm. The Indian Meteorological Department has predicted that it would be generally cloudy with one or two spells of rain or thundershowers. Even if it rains, the Chinnaswamy Stadium has a good drainage system and is one of the few grounds in India with a subsurface aeration system, allowing play to resume within 30 minutes after the rain stops. RCB is coming into the match with five wins on the trot after losing seven of the first eight matches this season but have a great chance to make the IPL playoffs for the ninth time. On the other hand, defending champions CSK have been more consistent throughout the season and are better placed to make their 13th playoff appearance. The five-time champions beat RCB in the season's first clash by six wickets. Chennai Super Kings are fourth on the points table with 14 points from 13 matches while Royal Challengers Bengaluru are at sixth with 12 points from as many games. CSK also have a better net run rate of 0.528 than RCB's 0.387. To replace the Super Kings in the top four, RCB needs to win the match by at least 18 runs if they score a minimum of 200 runs batting first or win in 18.1 overs if they are chasing 200. Chennai Super Kings, meanwhile, will qualify for the IPL 2024 playoffs if they win the match, regardless of the margin of victory. The last time CSK and RCB met in the inaugural match of the IPL 2024, the Super Kings clinched a six-wicket win over Faf du Plessis' side. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Squad: Faf du Plessis (c), Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, Mahipal Lomror, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Karn Sharma, Mohammed Siraj, Lockie Ferguson, Yash Dayal, Swapnil Singh, Anuj Rawat, Suyash Prabhudessai, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Himanshu Sharma, Mayank Dagar, Manoj Bhandage, Tom Curran, Alzarri Joseph, Akash Deep, Saurav Chauhan, Rajan Kumar.

IPL 2024: Will rain play spoilsport in much-awaited blockbuster CSK vs RCB clash?

<keyword id="4046372" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="avidipto-chakraborty">Avidipto Chakraborty</keyword> from Mumbai not only cracked the CAT examination in his first attempt itself, he emerges as this year's topper. Almost 20 students including him have scored 100 percentile in CAT exams this time. 
 
This BITS-Pilani student attributed his success to the number of mock tests he had taken while preparing for the test. 
 
“I completely relied on self-studies and did not take get enrolled in any coaching centres,” The Indian Express quoted Chakraborty, who is working with a private finance services company as an intern. 
 
“I took 86 mock tests for preparation and trusted almost 90 per cent on the analysis,” he said. 
 He kept the balance between his studies and CAT preparation by utilising his free time during weekends. He would attempt three mock tests in two days to gain confidence. This young lad now sees his future in entrepreneurship and aspires to pursue MBA from IIM-Ahmedabad, but not too soon. In his final year, Chakraborty got an offer from his dream company — <keyword id="574638" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="McKinsey-Company">McKinsey &amp; Company</keyword>. 
 
“I may opt for the deferred admission policy and will join the Indian Institute of Management later. I wish to become a consultant,” he said. 
 Meanwhile, Unlike Chakraborty, another topper Yash Choudhari has decided to turn down his job offer if he makes it to <keyword id="19483" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="IIM-ahmedabad">IIM Ahmedabad</keyword> or IIM Bangalore. He hails from <keyword id="49077" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kolhapur">Kolhapur</keyword> in Maharashtra. 
 
For this fourth year B-Tech student from College of Engineering in Pune, securing a 100 percentile in CAT in his first attempt wasn't a surprising moment. 
 
"I had been preparing for the exam for 7-8 months, and I was expecting a 100 percentile," he said. While solving test series and mocks for the CAT, Choudhari said he would always score the highest in Quant, while Verbal was his weakest area. Ironically, he secured the highest score in the Verbal section, and second highest in Quant. 
 
His word of advice to CAT aspirants is - “No matter how much ever you prepare, CAT will always be a step ahead of you. There is always an element of surprise. Do not try to solve all the questions in a set. It is sheer waste of time." 
 
He concluded saying - "A smart student would know which section is tougher than the previous years' papers. So, don't waste your time. Solve what you know and move ahead..."
