Hear it from our Students
2IIM's course is not an offline course transitioned to online because of Covid, but a course originally designed to be online, and it shows! Fantastic video course with loads of tests to get you Game ready for CAT. Excellent peer group and instant doubt clarification is the cherry on the top.
2IIM's course had fantastic lectures from Rajesh. Whenever I had any doubts, the support received was instantaneous. I had a great experience with the course! You will too!
2IIM's course helped me get better in Quant by taking me from absolute basics to CAT level. VARC and DILR sections have tons of relevant practice material. Fantastic support system through WhatsApp. I would recommend 2IIM's CAT Online Coaching for all CAT Aspirants.
I am extremely grateful to 2IIM for keeping us calm during the chaos set by the pandemic. Would definitely recommend 2IIM's Live Online CAT Coaching to all the MBA aspirants.
If you are looking for a purposeful Online CAT Preparation platform that will help you gear up for CAT Exam without the pomp and splendor of a manic corporate driven agenda, then 2IIM is it!
Before enrolling with 2IIM CAT Online Preparation, I tried other prep providers. Had i known them before, would have saved hard earned money. In my opinion, Go for it, it is worth every penny. 2IIM is a community that will always have your back. They are the best CAT Online Coaching providers and will stand true to the fact that they offer the best CAT Online Preparation.
In one word : Amazing. I had hardly 100 solid days left for my CAT Preparation. I had to start from the scratch. Literally. Then I remembered about 2IIM CAT Online Preparation. They were Fantabulous. I would suggest anyone going for long term prep to religiously watch all the videos and solve all the problems from 2IIM's CAT online coaching website. :)
2IIM is famously known for providing free trials to their CAT Online Coaching courses. They are also quick to respond to your enquires and mails. Overall they provide a very personal and refreshingly new experience to one's CAT Online preparation journey. It will definitely be worth the effort to check out their website. As the saying goes - 'Pehle sab try karo. Fir sahi chunno'
2IIM team has a wonderful way of approaching the CAT exam and providing timely advice whenever asked for some. Time and time again I asked for advice from Bharathwaj, and I was reassured and encouraged through my CAT Online preparation in its entirety. Rajesh also casually reminded us to not give into percentile calculators, PagalGuy, and rumours.
Is Online CAT Coaching Worth it?
Here’s why you should go for it!
It is the teacher who makes the difference, not the classroom.
Learning, whether online or offline, is centred around the teacher. Cracking CAT is easier if you have a teacher who has been there and done that before. The biggest advantage of an Online CAT Coaching course is that it gives you access to the best CAT teaching out there- that highly experienced CAT 100%iler whose fantabulous classes you have heard about can now be your teacher!
Not all Online CAT coaching courses are equal; Content, testing and analytics are key.
Here are some questions which can help you evaluate and choose an excellent Online CAT coaching course:
1) Does the content start from the absolute basics and bring you up to CAT level?
2) Can you learn at your own pace through modularized content?
3) Is it accessible on any device, at any time, anywhere?
Advantages of Classroom coaching are NOT the disadvantages of Online CAT Coaching
When it comes to learning schedules, doubt clarification, peer learning etc., all of these are very much possible to get in an Online CAT Coaching as well.

The CAT Online Coaching Course will be sufficient for CAT 2023 preparation on a standalone basis. One need not use any other material for preparation.
Any recorded video of length more than 15 minutes is more or less worthless. Research tells us that people struggle to watch even entertainment videos if they are more than 12 minutes long. (Imagine that, if one struggles to watch Amitabh Bachchan for 12 minutes, what are odds of watching a tutor in a 60 minute long video?).
We have spent an inordinate amount of time and energy in designing this CAT online coaching. At every stage, we have worn the hat of a student and brought in the technology that works for each specific idea. The starting point has been the student requirement, and not the technology. This is why we went down the route of using screen capture videos and not live videos. Screen capture videos de-emphasize the teacher and bring the content to the forefront. (This hurts us while trying to market the product). But screen capture gives us two massive advantages - 1) Video size is small. Our videos on a per-minute basis are about one-fourth of the size of the videos on youtube. So, if you have an internet connection that lets you watch stuff of youtube you can most definitely take this course and 2) We can write equations and use a digital pen to highlight key ideas without worrying about camera focus...

Apart from this, there are on an average two checkpoint quizzes per topic, each with 6-8 questions inside the CAT 2023 - Online CAT preparation. These are simple practice questions to help consolidate the idea. For these also, detailed slide-deck presentations are available, but the student has the option of skipping these if the student is comfortable with the question.
Beyond this, there is a timed Prep-Edge quiz that gives questions at the level of difficulty seen in CAT. These also come with detailed slide-deck solutions. Some of the trickier ones have video solutions as well. Student can choose to skip the solution, rush through the slides, or listen to the videos.
Since we give so much choice over picking the medium for the student, the flexibility over speed is established. A beginner can go through all videos, all solutions in detail, both checkpoint quizzes at his/her own speed, and the prep edge questions after doing some more practice. If done this way, the time taken would be around 5 hours for the class in Online CAT preparation 2023.
Someone who has taken CAT before and knows most of the basics can rush through the slides, listen in on the 4 most critical videos, speed through the checkpoint quizzes and focus on taking the Prep Edge quizzes with utmost seriousness. This 'expert' can finish the topic in less than 75 minutes.
The flexibility over speed is particularly useful while revisiting a topic. You can directly zone in on the 2-3 topics and 4-5 questions that you want to revisit, see 3 key videos and be done with the topic. Some of our students have been absolutely thrilled with the pace at which one can revise with 2IIM's online CAT coaching.

Jokes apart, the largest value in the online CAT preparation course sits in the pedagogy. The value lies in
1) the way we have created the course,
2) the people who have created the course and
3) the quality of the course content.
We have built the entire Online CAT coaching content with a team of 3 teachers. They have distilled years of teaching experience to come up with a well-thought out pedagogy that uses technology well. We have not used technology for the sake of using some fancy bits. We have found the tech pieces that the course demanded, not the other way around. That value which our teachers bring to the table cannot be replicated easily.
