CAT Examination looses value

The latest Press release issued by IIM Ahmedabad today has announced that the “CAT 2009 result declaration has been deferred to end of February 2010”. Many of the CAT 2009 test takers were expecting the results to come out either today or tomorrow, as the IIMs had earlier announced that the results would be declared by the third week of February 2010.

This delay and uncertainty is raising the anxiety level of the CAT 2009 candidates. Thus many MBA aspirants are this year considering the MAT or the Management Aptitude Test and not the Common Admission Test to get admission in some of the top management institutes.

The MAT exam is held four times a year and is quite convenient to prepare for. Those who took the MAT exam in December were given their results within a month’s time. The results of the CAT exam though conducted in the same month have been delayed by yet another week…..So the results would be declared even after the next MAT....that is the February MAT results come out.

Due to this delay of the CAT results many MBA aspirants who have quit their jobs may have to take admission on the basis of scores of either the December or the upcoming February MAT results. The chaos that marked CAT online exams prompted many to not wait for the results, but to look for other opportunities.

Due to the failure of the online CAT there are also reports coming in that some non-IIM colleges are not considering CAT scores too seriously. This entire tedious process of the CAT 2009 has led to change of plans among many MBA aspirants. Those who thought of taking CAT next year are now apprehensive due to the unsatisfactory turn of events. They are now considering the MAT exam and other entrance tests to a greater extent. The CAT may finally be loosing its status as the ultimate MBA entrance test.

A.R.Rahman Wins Two Grammy Awards

A.R.Rahman has won two Grammy Awards, isn’t that quite an achievement. It’s not unbelievable though, considering what a big hit the movie, Slumdog Millionaire was and the Oscars Slumdog won last year. The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards was held in Los Angeles on Sunday night, and in India it has been quite a pleasant surprise to us on Monday morning. This is the first time Rahman has been nominated for a Grammy.

The other Award won by Rehman is for Best Compilation Soundtrack Album For Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media for Slumdog Millionaire, beating the others: Cadillac Records, Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds, True Blood and the Twilight.
This is what he had to say on being handed the Grammy: "Insane, eh? I never even dreamt about winning all these awards. I once again want to thank the Almighty, my spiritual Sufi teachers Ameen Peerullah Malik Sahib, Danny Boyle, Fox and the whole Slumdog creative team, all the awesome actors in the movie, MIA, Resul Pookutty, my whole team, Gulzaarji, Sukvinder Singh, Tanvi Shah and Vijay Prakaash.
