CAT Exam Preparation

1. Know your Exam

The first thing you prepare for is getting to know the exam pattern and syllabus of CAT in detail. Next, a comprehensive plan needs to be in place before you start preparing for the exam. To do this, you need to go through last years’ question papers and analysis so you can understand the significance of each topic and set your priorities accordingly. Broadly the exam is a multiple choice test with main focus on 4 major parts, viz. Quantitative Ability, Verbal Ability, Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning.

2. Right Study Material

There is ample study material available with Cat Coaching in Chandigarh and even for those who do not take CAT coaching classes. A lot of books, question banks, preparatory books, and sample question papers are available in book stores as well as the online market. Getting the right material is important for systematic studies.

3. Online Mock Tests

Once you are done with your basic preparation it is essential for you to take online mock tests to understand where you stand on the ladder of preparation. This analysis is very significant as it helps you to change or continue on your path of action accordingly. Start with one to two tests a week initially and then move up to 3-4 tests a week. Write down your silly and common blunders in each test you take so you can avoid them in the future. There are lots of CAT coaching institutes in Chandigarh where you can enroll for the test series without attending the CAT classes there.

4. Study Group

Anything can be achieved if you join forces. You can form a little study group where you can bounce off ideas on how to prepare for a particular topic in CAT or which is the best way to deal with a topic, etc. Conversing problems, sharing your queries and strategies helps you prepare better. If your study group has people who have taken up coaching, the better. They get to clear your doubts by getting them answered by experts. Take mock tests and solve practice papers together to better your understanding of a topic.

5. Buddy up with the Internet

Educational websites, news websites, and social media groups can be of great help. Articles, sample papers, study materials are available on most of these websites and can be downloaded for free as well. Follow and join different forums and groups related to CAT preparation to always be updated with the latest on CAT.
