“A quick intro about me : Class X 9.6CGPA, Class XII 93.8%(CBSE), B.E. EEE at SSN College of Engineering, Chennai (CGPA 7.7 until 7th semester). Cat 2016 : 96.19 Percentile I am fresher. I have just completed my under graduation. Got calls from IIM A,C,L,I,K and new IIMs. Converted Calcutta and Lucknow as of now. My college gives students a lot of freedom to pursue what they want to inside the campus. The student run culturals, Techfests, Melas let me try my hand at marketing. I loved it. I thought I would be happy pursuing marketing as my career. That's when I came to know about CAT. I went through the portions and I knew I was quite comfortable with the portions as such, but CAT is a competitive examination. The competition is unbelievable. So I knew more than just a tutor, I wanted a mentor to guide me through my preparation. That's when I came to know about Mr.Sri Ganesh sir. I spoke to him and immediately realised that he is the type of mentor I was looking for. Mr.Sri Ganesh is a huge source of motivation. Whenever you feel low (If you do not feel low during your course of preparation, it means you aren't preparing well), just give him a call and you will feel much better. He believes in hardwork. We students at Dream Chasers got individual attention. Whenever I was wasting time , he was there to tell me that I was lagging behind. He calls you at 10 pm at night to ask if I am following the time table. We hardly get such attention from teachers nowadays. This is where Dreamchasers stands out from the crowd. Except for few self motivated students, majority of us will not sit at home and study for 10 hours on weekends. But sir made us sit in the class for 10 hours each (on Saturday and Sunday) weekend after weekend.These are the little things which help us edge ahead of the competition. In my opinion, time spent studying at home will be crucial for success in CAT or any competitive exams for that reason. So to have a mentor guiding you in your preparation at home, is an added advantage. I don't see that happening in other leading coaching centers. These things might seem intimidating for an aspirant just starting his preparation . So to just let you guys know, we enjoyed our preparation. The Dream Chasers centre in T Nagar is where we spent our weekends in, we had fun great fun during the breaks and at times during the preparation time too. We helped each other even though we were all competing with each other. I loved my days at DC. Thanks to Agni anna and Ganga akka too for being there. Finally thanks to Sri Ganesh sir for being my mentor and not just a tutor. I am happy being your junior at IIM C sir. You will definitely scale great heights sir. Best wishes..”
