Here is a 10-day strategy for your CAT 2024 preparation– 

 

Take Mock Tests and Solve the Previous Year's Question Papers 

It is very important to take as many mock tests as you can. Solving previous year's question papers and sample papers helps you understand the type of question and exam pattern. Analyse previous Mock Tests for clarity about the type of questions and understanding of your preparation level. Set a timer before you start solving a question paper. 

 

Revise Basics 

Revise basic number conversions and quick calculation shortcuts, formulas, etc. You may likely get confused with these basic calculations and formulas under exam pressure. It is important to have a strong base of the fundamentals of mathematical concepts. A strong understanding of concepts like percentages, ratios & proportions, and averages, frequently used in DI problems for comparisons, data analysis, and summarisation is necessary. Make sure to revise these thoroughly.

 

Read Comprehension Passages 

Reading comprehension passages can help improve your verbal, critical thinking and analytical skills. It is advised to read the questions first and then read the passage. This will make it easier to find the answers to the questions while reading. 

We recommend covering the high-weightage topics first. While you prepare for the CAT 2024, also focus on time management as it will help you complete the paper on time. It is also very crucial to maintain your mental and physical well-being throughout the preparation. For detailed consultation, reach out to us on our social media.
