""""this thread is for those who believe 1 month is enough to crack CAT..
those who believe in them selves and their abilties... those who are confident and willing to hard work... 15 hours a day....




hello everyone this is Anshul Agarwal
Academics
10th class 88% (cbse board)
12th class 84% (cbse board)
B.E 74% J.E.C jabalpur EC

CAT'08# 80 percentile

CL proc. never scored above 90 percentile
TIME AIMCAT same

actually I was waiting for my TCS joinin... but since they delayed my joinin I am gonna crack CAT this year...

I have 1 month to prepare and revise everythings...

CAT 09 I am coming... beware PG dream team.... although I may be under under dog but.. it is going to beat the captain of Dream Team... remember CAT is just about confidence in you.... hahaha.. watchout..


weekly target:
CAT is all about scoring high.. what I personally feel is that you just need to clear cutoff for quant and score high in D.I and verbal. Talking about quant we gonna start preparing for Quant from 1 NOVEMBER ONWARD... THIS WEEK IS DEDICATED TO verbal and D.I ( scoring sections)
this may look a very hectic schedule.... but you need to work hard to crack cat ..remember each second is important...

remember to always Time urself before solving any of the aimcat...
what I do is give approx 8-10 min to single passage ..
and 15 min to D.I set...


Time Table (24oct - 31 oct)

D.I and Verbal Sections

{LEAVE GRAMMER APART.. IF YOU DONT LIKE IT
ALSO LEAVE VERY HIGH DIFFICULTY LEVEL D.I SETS WHICH YOU FEEL ITS REALLY HARD TO CRACK AND ARE TIME CONSUMING }

24 oct Aimcat 1020 1019

25 oct Aimcat 1018 1017

26 oct Aimcat 1016 1015

27 oct Aimcat 1014 1013

28 oct Aimcat 1012 1011

29 oct Aimcat 1010 1009

30 oct Aimcat 1008 1007

31 oct Aimcat 1006 1005

Congrats you have done with your Aimcats ...


hey I more important thing.... I want you all to seperately note down all the homonymes and important vocabulary words given in Aimcat.. that will be very helpful... last 3 years continuously CAT is asking homonymes... so why to leave such simple scoring topic...

make a list nd whenever you get time revise them...

Also i would like you to categorize D.I sets in 3 main categories:
1)calculation based.
2)logic based (arrangements etc)
3)iterative (incomplete information, multiple cases)

we gonna Select and attempt D.I sets in same order."""

Thanks Ganesh !!!

There are many ups and downs as far as mock performance is concerned. Consistency still eludes many of us...

We are into the last phase of our preparation. With less than a month to go for CAT what would be your advice ? What was your plan during last phase of your preparation??

Thoda general Gyan de do yar.....

Thanks !!!
