Strategy
and Preparation Tips
Correct
your basics for every section
The
foremost step to crack CAT is to know and understand the exam pattern
and syllabus. After knowing your exam pattern and syllabus, focus on
your basic concepts. Stop jumping from one topic to another, unless
you have the clarity with the fundamentals of that topics. Devote at
least three hour daily for your preparation of CAT 2016. Throw your
calculator away and try to grow the habit of mental calculations. You
can even practice NCERT books of Class 6 to 10 to get your basics
right. Make a flexible time table for study. Study something that
your heart wants and don’t be rigid.
Take
Analyzed Mock Tests
After
preparing your basics, start taking mock tests as these will help you
to access your standing. Start taking one proctored mock and one
previous year mock, analyze it very thoroughly. Don’t get
disappointed by mock results in the initial phase but analyze each
mock test that you take. The results of these mock tests helps you to
work on weak areas and further polish your strengths. Also, these
mock tests will help you learn time management skills and you will
know your pluses and minuses which will improve your speed and
accuracy gradually.
Analyze
your Strenghts & Weaknesses
Once
you know about CAT, analyze your strengths & weaknesses and
measure how much time you may be required to devote to your weak
areas. You will have to study and practice more on your weak points
and on the other hand there may be a few topics where you are
stronger enough and you may need less revision and practice sessions.
Strategically, you must find out such weak areas and segregate them
from the strong ones.
