The candidate must hold a Bachelor’s Degree, with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA [45% in the case of candidates belonging to the Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST) and Persons with Disability (PwD) categories].
Candidates appearing for the final year of a Bachelor’s degree/equivalent qualification examination and those who have completed degree requirements and are awaiting results can also apply.
First of all, understand the CAT inside out. Go through the past 5-6 years’ CAT papers to identify the most important topics and patterns across sections.
Secondly, enrol in a high-quality online coaching program that provides a structured study plan, comprehensive study material, and up-to-the-minute test series. Prefer an institute with experienced, passionate faculty who can deliver knowledge in the simplest manner.
Be consistent in your preparation and keep your approach simple: build a clear weekly study plan and stick to it. Complete your syllabus early and then dedicate yourself to practice.
A "reverse approach" to learning can be highly effective under time pressure, where you first write a test, do an in-depth analysis, identify weak areas and finally build relevant concepts.
This approach ensures that your preparation stays exam-oriented, adaptive, and effective.
