Rai, who is doing BTech (Mechanical), did his schooling from Bhavan Vidyalaya, Chandigarh. His father is in a private job, while his mother is a homemaker. “Consistency and hard work are the keys. I worked daily for one or two hours and prepared for a year. My hobbies include graphic design, chess, and music. I aim to get to high leadership roles in the consulting space to drive impact on a large scale. In the long term, I intend to start a venture of my own in the social sector. For those aspiring to appear for CAT, it is important to start preparation timely and put in a consistent effort from the start. Set weekly targets as to not drift away from your goals on a bad day,” said Rai.
