It isn't that educational materials are irrelevant or boring; it is more a matter of who teaches. Those that are great educators bring additional value to any material by painting a picture that links all learning to adaptation skills.

CAT / MBA - Guru Shikhar

MBAGuru | Guru Shikhar | Guru Disha | Be The Guru | AIRCAT Series | Fast Track Program

OVERVIEW

Guru Shikhar is a comprehensive classroom course for your preparation for first-part (online exam) of CAT and other B-school entrance examinations, with approximately 225 contact hours.

Weekly classroom sessions in each of the skills i.e. Reading Comprehension (RC), Verbal Ability (VA), Quantitative Ability (QA) and Data Analysis (DA), focus on concept strengthening and basic applications through topic-wise speed building modules. A few months into the program, enhanced applications including short-cut techniques are covered and your absolute progress is tracked by personalized skill-development tests.

While the skill-sessions in the second half of the classroom program continue to focus on personalized skill-development, your relative progress is tracked through a series of full-length tests that measure your performance against your toughest competitors from leading undergraduate institutes. Interactive sessions with IIM alumni are conducted to help you develop optimal strategies to crack the full-length tests.

This is how we go about preparing you:

 

COURSE COMPONENTS - DETAILED

English and Math concept strengthening

Basic and Advanced concepts in English (Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension) and Math (Quantitative Ability and Data Analysis) will be developed through interactive skill-sessions. The basis of the concept development is the Guru-fundae books. The VA sessions will focus on developing grammar, vocabulary and verbal reasoning fundamentals as applicable in the context of CAT/other MBA entrance exams. The RC sessions will focus on improving reading speed, developing passage comprehension and techniques to tackle the different question types in CAT / other MBA entrance exams. The QA sessions will focus on developing advanced techniques to tackle Arithmetic, Algebra and Geometry questions in CAT / other MBA entrance exams. The DA sessions will focus on developing Data Interpretation and Data Sufficiency skills, and the analytical skills to solve logical reasoning problems and techniques to tackle the different question types in CAT / other MBA entrance exams.

Speed development through topic-wise tests

Short and intense topic wise tests in VA, RC, QA and DA, every week, will assist you in applying the concept knowledge gained, in improving upon your speed and accuracy, and in identifying your strong and weak areas. The tests correspond to the concepts discussed in the class during a skill-session. The basis of your speed development is the Guru-gati Tests.

Personalized skill development (PSD) through absolute benchmarking

Your individual skill levels in VA, RC, QA and DA will be gauged every week through individualized skill tests and your tests for a particular week will be decided on your previous week's performance. In this way, the skill tests will adapt to your skill level and provide you with your absolute performance benchmark. The basis of your individual skill development is the YOUnique©.

Relative performance through full length tests

A series of 10 full-length tests, developed by management graduates from the IIMs and ISB and conducted over a period of 3 months, will measure your performance (with parameters such as your score, speed and accuracy in a test and over a period of time) against your real competitors. The initial frequency of one test per week will increase in the last few weeks to provide you intensive test practice just before CAT. With comprehensive online analysis available for each full-length test, and frequent feedbacks by the faculty, these tests will provide you with your relative performance benchmark. The basis of your relative performance will be the AIRCAT Series.
