I graduated in 2016 with a BTech in Electronics and Communication engineering. I joined my current job in December 2016.
I had given the CAT in 2016, it's the preliminary Exam for getting into the Top BSchools in India. However I could not clear it in the first attempt, came out with a 91%ile.
The first few months in 2017 was hectic for me with the job and a new city. 3 months have flown off. Now I'm thinking of the GMAT.
I am planning to give the CAT too this year, and for those who know about CAT : Its hard, requires lot of prep and dedication and also has an element of luck.
So I wanted to ask is it too late for giving the GMAT now? I haven't started the prep yet though. Will it be unwise to Prep ONLY for GMAT for a whole 2.5 months, leaving CAT Prep, given the application timeline?
Should I attempt the GMAT next year, by March 2018, and only concentrate for the CAT now? Would my profile be affected when I write GMAT next year and apply to BSchools next year?Would it be too late?
Or should I grind it out this year, giving both the exams?
Could somebody please give me some advice on this and suggest a timeline?
Any suggestions are welcome.

Hey,
Don't put GMAT Prep into the long box.
GMAT is hard test too, so you'll need a lot of preparation to get sound score.
I'm recommending you to start your GMAT Prep journey ASAP. Just to be sure that you're aware of some nuances.
Good luck!

I was thinking if giving the GMAT in Jan 2018 would be too late? If I get a good score then by the time I apply to the colleges I would already have 2 Years of Experience. Wouldn't that weaken my chances of getting in?
