3. Keep your Time Management on point – The way you manage your time in CAT can give you an edge over a lot of candidates. Most of the CAT Mock analysis will provide you the time you took in each question you attempted. Make full use of that data and pinpoint the type of questions you know you take less time in. Also, during the exam, don’t get stuck over a question. Learn to say no, learn to let go.
4. Revise all the important concepts and formulas – Apart from giving mocks and analysing them, focus your energies on the important concepts and formulas, especially your strength areas as ultimately your strength areas are the ones which will boost your CAT percentile. Some of the important topics as per the weightage –
- VARC – Majorly Reading Comprehension and in English usage based questions – paragraph jumble and completion
- QA – Apart from the formulas, focus on Geometry, Arithmetic and Algebra-based questions
- DILR – Trickiest section in CAT from past few years focus on Tournament based sets, Arrangement based puzzles, Calculation based DI sets
5. Stay calm and confident – The day before CAT is the day to relax. This is the day when you should tell yourself that you have prepared as much as you could have for the D-Day. Visualise yourself going to the exam centre and confidently acing all the questions you get. Read all the examination rules carefully and keep all the necessary things prepared. Make sure that you are aware of the location of your exam centre and reach there well in advance. Just believe in yourself. You got this!
Best of Luck for CAT 2017.
