MAT Syllabus

It is possible to study for the MAT exam in three months, but it will require significant effort and time commitment. A three-month preparation strategy for the MAT should be followed, which should cover the course and involve practice sessions. You can't wait to finish the MAT syllabus because you don't have much time, and then you can start working on sample questions and mock exams. You must do both tasks concurrently. Create a list of subjects where the most questions on the MAT exam are asked. Prioritise them first. To be sure you have understood both theory and application, study the material and work through a few sample questions on the same day. You will also have adequate practice in this method.

All topics in MAT Examination are equally important however some of the topics to keep in fingertips are as follows:

1)  Data Analysis and Sufficiency : Texts, tables, graphs, charts, and Venn diagrams should be learned to observe and interpret the data. 

2) Language Comprehension: Grammar Vocabulary Reading Comprehension, Phrases/Idioms Para Jumbles Sentence Completion, One Word Substitution Antonyms/Synonyms Sentence Correction, Parts of Speech Verbal Ability. 

3) Mathematical Skills: LCM and HCF Profit and Loss Speed, Time and Distance, Commercial Maths Sequence And Series Triangles, Complex Numbers Surds and Indices Set Theory, Percentages Interest (Simple and Compound) Number System, Permutation and Combinations Heights and Distance Circles, Binomial Theorem Inequalities Mixtures and Alligations, Geometry Trigonometry Linear Programming, Elementary Mathematics Venn Diagrams Equations. 

4) Intelligence and Critical Reasoning : Family Tree, Arrangement Calendars, Strong and Weak Arguments Series Coding & Decoding, Multi-Dimensional Arrangements Numeric Grid Syllogisms, Course of Action Pie Chart Statement Conclusions, Puzzles Blood Relations, Column Graphs, Visual Reasoning, Critical Reasoning, Graphs Representing Area. 

5) General Awareness: Current Affairs, Company Punchlines, Sports, World Records, History, Finance, Business, International Organisation, Corporate News, CEOs Statements & Quotations Science, Awards and Winners, Social issues, Entertainment, Books and Authors, Geography, Politics.
