Figuring out your modus operandi

Ok, we are one semester away from placements,CAT, GRE and what not. Are we working towards what we want to achieve or just going with the flow to complete 6th semester?

It would be awesome if we had a success formula to reach our goal.

The probable options that we have are:
i) Being placed in :
a)Electrical core
b)Electronics core
c)the IT sector
d)a consultancy job
ii)To crack CAT and other MBA entrances
iii)To max GRE
iv)To top GATE

We should probably create a database of how and what we have to prepare from now on, so that we can win before its game, set and match.

Our seniors have gone through what we are going to go through. A team should be formed which will approach the seniors and find out what they did and what they want us to do to improve our chances. This information will be circulated to the entire class.

Its a cruel world out there and we surely don't want to jump into it blind folded, right?
