Hi All,

Well i am here to post the most common working grievance for the working junta, of which i am a victim too :(

Its getting difficult for me to squeeze time off work...can anyone suggest how you are managing time from work...

Like i am away from home for 12hrs including office and commuting !!! now cant think of doinmg much from office, at max reading paper and some magazines during lunch breaks!!

i leave office by 9:30 and its almost that time in the evening when i come back. Well i know i'll find 2 hrs for study even after watching TV and having food, even after starting at say 11:00PM to sleep by 1:00AM...i can stretch it to 2 thats not a problem...

i know it sounds kiddish to narrate my schedule but since its become a genuine concern for me so i thought of taking puys' advice.

and if its just 2 hrs what i get then where the hell do i have time for rwading those editorials and papers and magazines and ofocurse NOVELS!!! can anyone manage this for me? ...sorry for the trouble folks...but its important for the CAT journey as you all must have realised by now!!

Thanks in advance!!

Well, as you said yourself, you can manage reading papers and magazines during the lunch break etc.... Apart from this, 2-3 hrs per day should be sufficient, provided you do it regularly and utilize every minute of your study sessions.

In fact, I would say that you're probably one of the few persons who already has a plan in place, and a good one as well

Hey rajvedi,

You can easily squeeze out time and take out around 5 hours for CAT.
I have been in situation like yours before.
Only thing you need to compromise on is your sleep.
You need to reduce it to 5-6 Hrs.:sarcasm: You may feel uncomfortable initially but it would be fine once you get used to it.

Take out atleast 2-2.5 Hrs before you leave for office.
As we are fresh in morning, this is the best time to study because there will not be any thoughts wandering in mind about the day to day activities.
As you had already started prep.. you would realise when you are studying late night, you would be thinking about the day at office, how bad your manager is and all the same stuff..
The point is you should take out the quality time and use freshness of your mind for the preparation of CAT.

One more thing you could do is to utilize your commuting time.
You can do the following things::
1) Vocab
2) Speed Calculation
3) Revision of concepts
4) Solve questions orally from material. (Improves speed)
5) Puzzles (George Summer)

Even if you are out for 12 hours that means you are at home for 12 Hours.:hurray:
You just need to manage this time. Time Management is very important.
If you can manage these 12 Hours, you will be able to manage those 2.5 Hours also. ATB

Hi,

welcome to pagalguy

Both books are good. I think trishna scores on number of solved questions front while Arun sharma scores on popularity front (personal opinion).There is even a thread dedicated to quant by Arun sharma. Do refer that.

ps: Please do browse this page 's archives before posting a new query.Check a post by avinav 5-6 pages back . There he has compared Trishna and Arun Sharma
