greetings,

a systematic cat prep is very important for cracking it.

i would recommend you to join a coaching institute for the same.

buy quantitative aptitude books, verbal reasoning, analytical reasoning, general awareness and practice previous year question papers regularly.

read newspaper daily specially the editorial section.

hope this helps.

good luck

Hello

You have approx 9 months for this CAT. Let us see the things that you can do by spending approx 180 minutes everyday and with 24 hours per week of study.

1. Read a newspaper online daily. It can done in your spare time. It could be The Hindu or Firstpost. You can also read selective articles from NYTime or Washington Post. Also start Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis.

2. Start watching lectures online. The website of EduSaathi can help you in that. Watch videos of all topics sequentially and solve questions. This will help you to get your basics correct.

Continue the above two steps for 2 months. For self study, you can also go for the following books,

For Quant, you can go for either Arun Sharma or Nishith Sinha or Quantum CAT by Sarvesh Verma.

For LRDI, you can go for Arun Sharma or Nishith Sinha.

For Verbal Ability, you can look for Arun Sharma & Meenakshi Upadhaya.

For updates you can follow PagalGuy on web.

For Video Lectures and practise questions, you can follow Edusaathi on the web and Youtube.

Also, online practise Module "Test-Gym" of CL is also pretty good.

After that give 10-15 Mocks which will help you to access your standing. Do NOT give a new mock before analysing the previously give mock thoroughly. You may choose to join a coaching institute for regular classes in case you are not feeling up to the mark. If you have covered your fundamentals well, you can always hit your preparation at your coaching centre with full force. You would be able to enjoy your classes and demand good quality from them. It would also help you to access your own strengths and weaknesses related to the CAT exam.

Having said that, it is the teacher/ Mentor which is going to help you the most. So it will be your mentor who will be helping you down with the way of your preparation and helping you through all discouragements also. Good Mentorship is the only MOST IMPORTANT thing in any exam preparation. Find a suitable mentor to help you through your journey!!!

I hope it will help you
Good luck..
