We can use PG and other forums and also share documents and xls using Google Docs.

For e.g We can have a xls which has different sections from QA in different Sheets. People can then add different Questions they find, to the xls in one of the columns and the possible ans/easy method to solve it , in the other. Use PG for discussion and store the ans in one updated xls. As i am new, not sure if we can store the an xls in pg and update it every now and then.

nyways All the best for people who are targeting 2007.

In my opinion you should decide which books to start with on the basis of your strength and weakness. For me when I had the look at Arun Sharma I found that it is enough for brushing up the basics before starting the sectional. Have a look at the books and see which provide you basics required...dont waste your time with too many books becz u have time... u can utilize your time for strengthening the other areas.

Yes we have some time here... as suggested by some of puys in the earlier post it will be good idea to utilize this time strategically by strengthing the weak areas and focusing on RC's which are considered to be tough...

My advice to all dont be carried away with the amount of time in hand becoz specifically the working junta like me cant devote the whole of there time for studies.... My suggestion let be slow and steady we can win the CAT race.

Arun Sharma is a gr8 book if u jus want 2 revise ur basics...The first 5-6 chapters r pretty good.It teaches u sme good techniques, a few short cuts plus their numericals r tough & pretty much upto the cat standard.... bt thts it...aftr tht the rest of the book i think is a waste....
