You can either go for self-preparation if you find the topics difficult or not able to regularly practice the problems than better to join a coaching institute. Also, do join a good test series to evaluate your performance. Test series will give you an idea of time management, section selection and performance comparison with others.

Number system: Basic topic of this.Arithmetic: Arithmetic has a vast number of sub-topics.Algebra: Considering this has been one of the most dominant topics in CAT in the last three years, it makes a lot of sense to place extra emphasis on this topic.
Geometry: Another topic which has featured quite a lot in the last few years.
Permutation and Combination/Probability: This is another topic that contributes around one to two questions to the exam.
Miscellaneous Topics: This includes Set Theory, Trigonometry and Logarithms.

You can go for self preparation. Along with that, you must join a good test series. Regular tests will help you evaluate your performance and work on the weaker topics. Just keep working hard and be determined. Keep notes of important formulas and short cuts.
