Many top scorers spend the first 8-10 minutes tackling independent VA questions, including Odd One Out and Para Summary, before settling into long RC passages.
Candidates preparing for CAT must devise a exam day plan based on how they perform during mocks.

Choose a coaching institute that will minimise daily travel time, as daily traffic across major corridors can cause commute fatigue. Centres near metro stations (such as Central, Park Street, or Salt Lake Sector V) are usually the easiest to reach.
