CAT is less to do with word meanings..Just read the meanings and jot them down separately if you find it necessary.Revisit every now and then. Its not knowing each word that counts but just having a general idea on most words that will help.
Of course mugging up all the words cant hurt , but would require an awful amount of time and a herculean effort.

and synonym, antonym kind of questions in IIFT , NMIMS , SNAP, TISS

Is this the right approach.

Junta who had already tasted CAT plz reply.

u are on right track boss...but the most important part is that u keep it consistently moving.Dont try too hard at the start...gradually you will develop the speed and the mantra for cracking sums,,,and one fine day u will say that how did i do that...:smilecol:

as in cricket ,the cricketers practise coverdrive for 1000 times..and finally get the more out of it in the real match...
brucely quotes: I AM NOT AFRAID OF MAN WHO KNOWS MANY STYLE OF KICKING..
BUT AFRAID OF THAT PERSON WHO HAS PRACTISED ON KICK 1000 TIMES..

SO IT S JUST PLAIN PRACTISE....

HOPE I DIDNT PUT U TO SLEEP
HAPPY CRACKING...ALL THE BEST
