and practise. The more you are exposed to problems, the more likely youwill get through the CAT exam. Take full length question papers for test. Sitand take test similar to a CAT environment. Remember, you should reviewyour answers and analyse each and every mistake you did. This is themost important activity that most of us forget to do.

Lot of people ask a question, "Do I need a coaching centre forpreparation?". Answer depends on the type of person. If you are energeticand have an out-of-box strategy to work out your plans then you don't needa coaching centre. But, if you need someone to guide you then it is alwaysrecommended to enroll yourself.

While working on thequants section, keep in mind that, you should try to solve the problemlogically or through common sense without calculations. If it doesn't workthen go for calculations. This would save you a lot of time and make youstand out of others. One more point is you should always avoid your penand paper, which means you should calculate in your mind rather thanwriting down. If not 100%, try for atleast 70%. Concentrate more on numbersystems, geometry and progressions. Your questions will mostly stick on tonumbers.I recommend Arun Sharma's quantitative aps book. It is anamazing book.

LOGICAL REASONING & DI:

Reasoning and data sufficiency don't need much preparation but morepractice is necessary. It deals with the common problems that you face inyour day-to-day life like cricket matches, going to theatre with your friends,etc. In this section, data interpretation is most important. If you concentrate

on that and practice well, you will crack this section.ENGLISH:
