ABOUT US
Our goal is to provide best CAT Training to students to help them achieve their career goals through quality training and guidance. The way we are different:
- All the lectures are taken by Patrick Dsouza and Rochelle Dsouza.
- We teach students with logical way to crack CAT instead of the usual Mathematical way. Almost all the sums that come in the CAT can be solved by our methods.
- Only small number of students are taken per batch so that individual guidance and mentoring can be provided.
We are experts in CAT and know how to crack CAT. Our Logical methods of cracking CAT not only helps students who are good, but has also ensured that average students have been able to ace the CAT exam. All our classes are taken by Patrick D’souza and Rochelle D’souza.

TESTIMONIALS
I am so grateful to Quoin academy because I learned so much in this one year. I remember the first day I went to class and I had no idea how to solve basic math questions and I was very scared to even try to solve on my own. Patrick sir was always very considerate and I felt very comfortable in asking silly doubts because there was no judgement from his side. I give all the credits to Rochelle ma’am for making me feel so confident and she changed my perception about interviews. I was motivated every single day to give my best, and now one year later, I was able to join the college of my choice and perform well in exams and all of this was able to come true because of the guidance from Patrick sir and Rochelle ma’am.
I am a mechanical engineer with 14 months of work experience in ZS associates. I have received admission offer to SP Jain for Operations and Supply Chain Management and I owe this to Quoin. I had enrolled for the mentorship program as well as the GD WAT PI preparation course. Three USPs of Quoin that really helped me were the Unique Methods, Personal Attention and In Depth Knowledge of the admissions process. The unique methods helped specially in Quants, where not following the traditional approach saved a lot of time, maximising the number of attempts. I felt the importance of personal attention during the GD, WAT, PI sessions. I was aided to identify unique points about myself that would help in the interview, and I was given specific feedback about my WATs so that I could write them according to my natural writing style. Also, I was introduced to the art of a appearing for an interview which will help me throughout my life.The third, in depth knowledge of the process, was especially useful for understanding what the different exams and interviewers look for in a candidate. Together these three USPs worked wonders for me and I thank Quoin to help me achieve what I have today!

I am a 2017 B.E. computer science passout, working at BNP Paribas since the last three years.
I was recommended quoin academy by a colleague at work. Initially I was a bit skeptical about joining classes for MBA but Quoin academy absolutely removed all my doubts.
The lectures on quants conducted by Patrick sir were very helpful. Even basic maths was covered followed by the tricks and the various ways of solving just one sum. Solving without pen and paper and all these tricks helped alot especially for time based tests.
For DILR, an extensive sets of questions were solved. The variety of questions was useful in preparing us for any type of DILR set asked during the tests.
The verbal sessions conducted by ma’am were extremely helpful too. Right from grammar, sentence correction to comprehension everything was covered by her. Different exams require different ways to attempt the same question. During Rochelle Ma’am’s session each off those ways were tried and tested.
Rochelle ma’am and Patrick sir not only help us with the academic part of exams but also helped us with the mental stress. They were available at all times for doubt resolutions, mock evaluations and even just helping us cope with the stress of the exams.
Each mock was personally analysed by Patrick sir and he provided different ways to improve scores.
At every step we were constantly guided by both of them on how to improve our scores and do better.
Post the exams, mock GDPI sessions were conducted by Rochelle ma’am and Patrick sir. Each GD session was closely monitored by both and we were given individual pointers on how to improve. Mock interviews were also very helpful and for every question we were given a detailed feedback on how to improve our answers.
Potential interview questions were discussed and the answers were broken down and analysed thoroughly by them.
Many of the GD topics and interview questions were asked in the actual GDPI rounds.
Quoin academy helped me convert colleges like IMT, MICA, Greatlakes and still awaiting a few more colleges.
My experience with Quoin academy has been a remarkable one.
Their pedagogy was by far the best and it helped me at every stage,
right from getting my concepts cleared to excelling in GDPI.
The personalized assistance provided by Patrick sir & Rochelle ma’am during mock analysis
and GDPI has been extremely beneficial.
Thank you Quoin academy for your support.

I would associate Quoin with thinking out of the box and coming up with easy, lazy solutions to otherwise complex questions. The fear of cracking quants section was put at bay with Patrick Sir’s no formulae approach.

Getting into XLRI is a dream come true, and I don’t think this would be possible without the guidance of Patrick Sir and Rochelle Ma’am. The methods used by Patrick Sir to solve sums are simply mind-boggling and yet so simple. The guidance provided by Rochelle Ma’am throughout the entire process was spectacular. I am really grateful to them for guiding and motivating me and making my dream come true!
I could get into XLRI Jamshedpur only because of the personal attention that I received at quoin from Patrick sir and Rochelle Ma’am. Their unique method of teaching makes you believe that what you already know is enough to get through CAT and XAT. Their concern and involvement in your preparation is beyond the 4 walls of a classroom. I will always be extremely thankful to Patrick Sir and Rochelle Ma’am for making this entire process one of the best learning experiences ever.
Quoin academy has been a boon for me in the B-School entrance exam prep. Patrick Sir helped me unlearn conventional methods and learn quick but effective methods in Quantitative aptitude and LR-DI section which improved my speed and accuracy, giving me an edge in all the competitive examinations. Rochelle Ma’am helped me overcome my fear in reading comprehension with excellent techniques and helpful reading material for practice. Patrick sir and Rochelle Ma’am were the cornerstones at the time of GD-PI prep as well.
I credit Patrick Sir and Rochelle ma’am for changing the course of my career. The best part about Quoin academy is its comprehensive learning program – right from strengthening our basics, to prepping us with the right kind of strategies for different exams and having rigorous practice GDs and interview sessions.All I can say is that I feel immensely privileged to have been under the tutelage of Patrick Sir and Rochelle ma’am.
JBIMS wouldn’t have been possible without Quoin. Patrick Sir and Rochelle Ma’am constantly mentored and motivated throughout the journey. Mock Analysis by Patrick Sir, helped eliminate the mistakes and improvise the speed, accuracy and number of attempts. Rochelle Ma’am’s friendly nature always helped relieve the stress and boost confidence. She reviewed the applications even at the last moment.
One thing that is most unique about Quoin academy, Patrick sir and Rochelle Ma’am apart from perfect academic coaching is the extreme amount of positive energy that is pumped into the minds of students.There is no match to Patrick Sir’s unique teaching methods and Rochelle Ma’am’s command on her topics.
The route to JBIMS with Quoin Academy has been an incredible journey of my life. Patrick sir’s mock analysis and Rochelle Ma’am’s technique of eliminating the options had made things simpler for me, constant mentoring by Rochelle Ma’am played an important role during my ups and downs. Quoin’s strong Alumni network helped me gauge practical scenario.
JBIMS was possible only because of the positive motivation provided throughout the Quoin Academy’s classroom learning sessions. Patrick Sir’s and Rochelle Ma’am’s strategies for the Aptitude section were very helpful. A methodical approach to GDPI sessions helped a lot during the actual exam. I am really thankful to Quoin Academy to help me achieve my dream.
It has been a great journey under the guidance of Patrick Sir and Rochelle Ma’am at Quoin academy. Patrick sir’s methodology to solve problems logically rather than by traditional methods gave me an edge and helped me to solve more problems in less time with more accuracy. Also, Rochelle Madam’s constant efforts to get to know you and helping you in the areas where you might lack are second to none.
Quoin Academy has not only helped me prepare well for the entrance exams but has also prepared me for various other challenges that I could face in life. As in, it has changed my approach towards any situation and that helps in understanding and finding a better solution for any problem. As far as my experience is concerned, I have got attention by both Sir and Ma’am personally and have been provided with valuable insights about my strategy or approach or any doubt, all the time. It was a great learning experience.
Quoin Academy has been much more than just coaching centre for me. While preparing for MBA entrance, it’s not just the Quant, Verbal and LR skills that is required; but what you need is the mental and emotional strength to sustain through the entire process. Patrick Sir and Rochelle Mam make the extra effort to go an extra mile. Not only do they help you with the academics but also help in keeping you motivated throughout and ensure personal attention. Its not only teaching but mentorship, a guidance which extends not only till your CAT but even further in life.
After giving CAT in 2016, I thought my dream of getting into a premier B School would have to pause for another year. And then I got a profile call for SPJIMR. Immediately I called up Patrick Sir and got enrolled for the GDPI course at Quoin. This was the best decision I took. Rochelle ma’am and Patrick Sir guided me personally for the form writing session and were always available. Their inputs were very valuable. What I liked the most about Quoin was that we weren’t given a fixed set of Qs Answers to learn for the interviews. Instead our own personal strengths and weaknesses were focused on and I went for the interview as my authentic self, not a fake interviewee that the college would have liked. Ma’am and Sir were always approachable and available to help. It is because of them that I converted both calls I had and am studying at a premier B school like SPJIMR. Thank you for all your support
Quoin helped me not only with my academics but with being motivated throughout the preparation process. They tweak their approach for every student on the basis of his/her individual strengths and weaknesses. This personal attention is their USP against all other competitors.
I joined Quoin, for WAT & PI preparation, after reading some exemplary reviews about Ma’am and Sir on the internet and I must say they exceeded my expectations in the very first meeting itself. Their mentoring is highly personalised unlike the “big coaching centres” and their experience is immense in this field. However, the most striking part about them is they genuinely wish good for you and put their best effort to bring out the best in you. You will rarely find these qualities in the highly commercialized market for exam preparations today. Just meet them once to find it yourself.
