CAT will get you closer to your goal of getting your MBA degree from a good B-School.In fact, the most important reason why students do not make it to the prestigious Indian Institutes of Management is the lack of confidence in themselves. More often than not, this lack of confidence stems from inadequate preparation. Here is the opening salvo which will help you arm yourself for D Day. Discuss your views

Pre-CAT Preparation for D-day..

idea posted by Dayanand Deshpande Senior Consultant, Ernst & Young

According to me, a candidate must have pre-CAT preparation of the Actual D-day situation so as to be at ease on that day. I think cracking the CAT takes rigorous preparation and consistent hard work with time management is the key.
Follow the 3 principles:-
1) Solve every question 3 times; first time would be the attempt, second would be a solution and finally for the purpose of revision. The 3 times principle would help you in understanding the concept better
2) You should know what to leave for later during the exam. Solve the questions which you think you can answer correctly. Leave complex questions for later. Also in the first attempt, answer only those questions which would take less than a minute.
3) Long and difficult questions should be reserved for later. Mark such questions and solve them after completing the simpler and less time consuming answers.

Concentration on Logical Thinking

idea posted by Anil Kumar Singh Senior Consultant, GKC

As per my view you have to concentrate more on the logical, Analytical,and mathematics of your twelfth and tenth syllabus is more sufficient for you and don't waste your time in doing those problems which are so easy to solve. Just solve the problems with the use of pen and paper and then make a practice of not doing them on paper but try to do them orally.

Believers believe and non-believers don't . No one can tell what will happen tomorrow but we want to get assurity which makes us feel more secure and so we want to believe in it. All the astrologers are taking advantage of this mentality.
