Hello

For this question the answers will be very subjective. The time required to crack depends upon your ability and interest to crack it. On an average 8-10 months are enough to be well prepared to crack CAT.

Time required to prepare for CAT also depends upon your study group, if all are willing to crack and prepare accordingly you will be one of them to crack the CAT.

It also depends upon the books and videos that you refer because an easily explained concept will take less time to understand and vice versa.

Ask as many students who cracked as possible and make your own technique and study plan and work accordingly. Study plans will give you an overall about how many months preparation you will need to do.

Do not compare yourself with others as everybody has their own different pace of learning and do keep motivating yourself by talking to students of various IIM.

I hope it will help you
Good luck...
