3 from IIT-B, BITS Pilani Girl Scored 100 Percentile in CAT!

In 2013, 8 students had nailed the CAT with 100 percentile. This year, the number of CAT 100 percentilers has doubled to 16. As many as 3 CAT 2014 100 percentile scorers are from IIT Bombay. Vibhu Gupta and Anurag Reddy are in the final year of their B.Tech course but already have admission letters in hand to join IIM Ahmedabad when they pass out from the institute in April 2015. Harshveer Jain graduated from IIT-B in 2014 itself and is working with a startup company right now.

BITS Pilani student Neha Manglik hails from Delhi. A student of Chemical Engineering, she is the only girl this year (and also the first one since 2009) to secure the perfect scores in CAT.  Another BITsian M D Riyaz Ahmed secured 99.8 percentile. A resident of Bengaluru, Riyaz is an alumnus of BITS Pilani Goa and had quit his job to concentrate on his studies. He wants to join MBA Finance and later start a new venture in the field of Education.

Vibhu is a resident of Kandivali in Mumbai suburbs. A Mechanical Engineering student at IIT-B, this was his first CAT attempt. With no access to full-time coaching, Vibhu depended on mock CAT tests and test series for his management exam preparation. The new CAT exam pattern worked in his favour too.

Anurag is from Nalgonda (near Hyderabad). He is pursuing Electrical Engineering from IIT Mumbai. He wants to specialize in Finance.

Harshveer is from Indore and studied Engineering Physics at IIT-B. He juggled work and CAT preparation to ace the test. Practice tests on weekends helped him to the top spot in CAT.

VJTI Mumbai student Pranay Shah scored a 99.59 percentile while VJTI alumnus Swapnil Nagare emerged as one of the CAT toppers with 99.91 percentile. This was Nagare’s third attempt to crack CAT.
