The CAT Result!!!!

The buzz about the CAT results had been on Pagalguy for almost 5-6 days…. I was part of the speculation there... also papers were talking about it… I … VA section was such that no one was at all sure what is going to happen… As always I came to the shukla library yesterday…. I was doing a mock XAT paper… decided to just check out pagalguy… my god… it said that CAT results were out on IIM-K website… Initially, I thought only people who had sent their forms to IIM-K would get their results there…

Suddenly on Pagalguy, I saw a guy from Mumbai posting…. My heartbeat went up… maybe actually skipped one beat… went on the IIM-K website… not opening… refresh refresh refresh… opens after 15 minutes… I key in my number and Date of birth…. “Page not found” appears… refresh refresh… nothing happens

After 30 minutes of trying this appears…



My first glance went to overall percentile…. 99.2… Could not believe my eyes….. Then I checked the name (omitted here)… It was mine… yes I did it.. wait what are the sectionals… did I screw up verbal… no 99.01 in verbal!!!!! I was so happy… eyes went moist…. Heart was beating out of my chest…..

Took a printout… came out of the lib… called mom… she was in siddhivinayak…. She was so happy… congratsbeta … called up dad and sis… then came inside the lib again…. Checked no calls were out as yet…

IIM A results were out after some time… My name was there… now I have to go for the acclaimed great IIM A GD PI…

What a feeling man…. It feels nice when your hard work materializes into results…

Thank you God!!!
