Apart from that start reading articles, books, etc on whatever topic you are interested to know about. Read not just for the sake of cracking an exam. Start enjoying the process and you will reap the benefits in the long run. There are lots of reading lists available for VARC in our website itself. Some of them are given below:

2) RC practice/Topic tests:
Even after being an avid reader, some aspirants might have trouble solving actual CAT VARC questions. That’s why it is important to practice RCs from various sources and acquaint ourselves with the various type of questions asked in the examination. There are lots of free sources available on the internet which can be used for this purpose. You can also solve Para Jumbles, Odd one out to increase your chances of getting them right. For Para summaries your RC practice should suffice, but you can practice further if you would like to.
Lots of coaching institutes provide topic tests along with their subscription. If you are someone who has joined coaching, please make use of these topic tests which can be done in a very small duration.
3) Mocks:
I am sure everyone would be already aware of mocks and their importance in the CAT preparation. Especially with regards to VARC, after each mock read all the passages again and try to answer the questions without a time limit. Try to understand what your thought process was when you chose an answer. For VA, check whether you are able to solve them correctly without time limit.
Even if you get low mock scores initially, don’t lose hope. Keep practicing and improve on your mistakes. Also keep in mind that CAT is known for surprises and you should be able to keep your calm not matter what happens during the exam.
ALL THE BEST FOR CAT 2021!!
Stay Home, Stay Safe [And prepare :)]
