FAQs About CAT Preparation Strategy

Begin by understanding the CAT syllabus and exam pattern. Build a daily study plan and start with basics before moving to advanced topics.

On average, 3–4 focused hours per day are enough if you start early. Closer to the exam, you may need 5–6 hours.

Coaching helps with structured guidance, but many students crack CAT with self-study if they are disciplined.

Create a fixed schedule—study 2–3 hours daily on weekdays and 5–6 hours on weekends. Use short breaks for quick revisions.

Very important. Reading editorials improves comprehension, speed, and vocabulary which are crucial for VARC.

Start with arithmetic and algebra basics. Practice daily and solve sectional tests for accuracy and speed.

Practice different puzzle types daily. Focus on choosing the right sets rather than solving all of them.

At least 20–25 full-length mocks before the exam, along with regular sectional tests for each subject.

Stay consistent, take breaks, and practice meditation. Regular mocks will reduce exam-day anxiety.
