There are a few common questions that all MBA aspirants ask themselves in the beginning. Am I too late to start CAT prep? Are 6 months enough to ace the CAT? What preparation plan should I follow to cover the whole CAT syllabus? How many mocks should I take? Which resources or coaching classes should I refer to during my CAT journey?
In this episode of CAT-apult, Debrup Poddar, a CAT 99+%iler, has shared the six-month preparation plan that helped him crack CAT 2020 and secure a B-school seat. He has broken down his journey month-by-month, highlighting the ups and downs in the path to CAT, the strategies he used to maintain consistency in mock test performances and the lessons he learnt from the regular analysis of those mocks to improve upon his weak areas. If you are a CAT 2021 aspirant preparing in an online mode, this video will be very useful to gauge your current performance, improve upon those mock test scores and catapult your CAT prep to the next level! To know more about Debrup’s journey to his preferred B-school and step by step approaches taken to crack CAT, follow his series CATapult only on InsideIIM.
