CAT Preparation

Hi Keshav,
The most common way to prepare for CAT is by joining an institute such as TIME or Tathagat. Depending on the region you stay in, you can find out the most renowned institute in your locality and choose. Also, there are multiple books that are available. You can also sign up for online courses to practice on your own.

Hi,
To improve your vocabulary the best way is to read as many books as you can. Mark the words and look for the simplest meaning in dictionary and coordinate accordingly.
All the best!

You should start your preparation right now to get decent scores in CAT.

You are eligible to appear for MBA. If you did not have a maths background, you may face challenges in getting a good percentile. It is recommended that you take CAT coaching to increase your chances to crack CAT.

Please refer to our institute website for applying

Hi,
You can start preparing from right now. It's better to join a reputed coaching institute. But, as you have almost 2 years to give CAT 2018, start with self-study and go through all the basic and after knowing about your strength and weakness in different areas join a good coaching institute. This would ease your preparation a lot. Be like the tortoise from the motivating story "The Tortoise & Hare". Have the zeal like the tortoise and succeed.
All the best!
