    Jatin Tuteja - IIM Calcutta
    Please consider the following as my feedback for the time I spent at Tathagat : Tathagat was instrumental in helping me get to my dream college (IIM Calcutta). Right from the time I joined TG, I got immense support from everyone- something which stayed with me till the end. Be it the super-helpful and talented faculty, or the well-structured study material, or the excellent workshops to brush up various topics- everything contributed a lot in me getting a good percentile. And the support doesn't stop there. The GD-PI sessions helped transform me from someone who was terrible at GDs to someone who aced every one of them during the selection process. Tathagat is probably the best place for every serious CAT/XAT aspirant out there.
    Mahima Shah - IIM Lucknow
    I still feel indebted to the college senior who told me about TG while I was preparing for CAT. I was stressed about how I would be able to prepare for CAT along with the demanding office work. But the weekend classes' schedule suited my weekly routine well. Faculty members of TG are so well versed in their subjects that they have devised their own shortcuts for approaching questions. Also, classes, assignments, discussions and workshops are conducted religiously by TG. The habit of reading The Hindu and a novel every week is something I cherish even now. Post CAT, GD sessions and mock interviews are conducted for everyone and they helped me in more than one ways. After joining IIM Lucknow, while preparing for summers placement, I realised that my GD skills are way better than everyone else’s, only because of TG!

    Preparing for CAT is a journey which can transform you as a person. I joined Tathagat last year in June. Having experiences with other coaching institutes, I did not have many expectations apart from getting a good percentile. After a year and a half, I can say that this place has transformed me completely. Tathagat makes sure that you realise your true potential and not only get a good percentile but convert the calls that you have. I wholeheartedly thank Kumar Sir and other teachers who enabled me to convert my dreams.
    Pratishtha Gupta - XLRI Jamshedpur
    If I were to credit my success at cracking a top-notch B-school it would only be to Tathagat. The topics were taught in a way for one to understand the logic behind everything and then shortcuts were taught to be able to take the test easily. Every doubt of mine was given so much attention and time that I got my basics thoroughly cleared. The GD/PI sessions helped me find ways to answer any and every question that could be asked. Tathagat helped me not only learn what was to be learnt for CAT but also taught me lessons for the lifetime.
    Kush Saxena - FMS
    There are simply no words to describe the learning and experience that i had in Tathagat, the fact that it is being spearheaded by the best teacher of India (Kumar Sir) is itself a testimonial for this. Kumar Sir is surely the best verbal and soft skills teacher in India right now as in addition to Verbal. Even Neraj Sir and Rahul Sir are the best teachers of Quant. Tathagat has the potential to create a 100 Percentiler out of an average student. Also, the workshops and the study material provided by TathaGat is unmatched. Overall, Tathagat is the best CAT Preparation institute in India right now as everything that is needed for acing CAT is offered there including emphasis on reading through their book review practice and separate classes for GK.
    Drishti Agrawal - IIFT
    Joining TG for cat preparation was a great decision for me as it made my journey of preparation more unique and fruitful than I could have asked for. The classroom environment created by the teachers kept me motivated throughout. Something that sets TG apart from other coaching institutes in my opinion is that it helps us look at the bigger picture which ultimately helps in streamlining the preparation and make the students give their best. Rule of reading novels in TG has helped me develop a habit of reading and the concepts of quant developed here I feel will remain with me forever. The teachers I met here have inspired me for life and I can't thank them enough for the same.
