Re: CAT 2009 has come - Discuss your exam preparation ...

Hi!!

my strategy for taking the cat exam, is ,

I gor for quant (solve abt 30-40% of sums)

then i go for DI(again same, abt 30-40% of sums)

n atlast verbal

bt by the tym I reach verbal, i get drained even if ppr is simple.

I have solved many papers, so its nt lack of practice, bt may be i m nt intrstd in verbal part.....

n if I go for Verbal first, then i constantly creates fear in my mind of loosing tym, n again i cnnt solve verbal.

so which strategy shud i follow!!??

PLEASE MAKE LINES ON YOUR ROUGH PAPER..

IT DOESNT REALLY MATTER IN WHICH CHRONOLOGY DO YOU ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BUT WHICHEVER SECTION YOU CHOOSE YOU SHOULD FIRST GO THROUGH ALL THE QUESTIONS OF THAT RESPECTIVE SECTION. AND THEN START SOLVING THE MOST DIFFICULT 1ST WHICH WILL MAKE THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS EASIER

Re: CAT 2009 has come - Discuss your exam preparation ...

I generally face problems clearing the quant cut off's. So I will be devoting most of time to that section.

My game plan is like follows:-

0-45 Mins - Quant - Attempt at least 11 questions

45-70/75 Mins - Verbal - Attempt as many as possible. I generally score really well in this section. 

75-115/120 - DI - Attempt 12/13 question  to ensure a good score.

 120-end - Back to quant. A quick revision of the attempted questions plus try to get 2/3 more done, if time permits. 

 

I suggest attempting Verbal in between Quant & LRDI as it provides a break from number crunching and calculations and your mind relaxes a bit. I mean for VA you put down your paper and pen and just focus on the screen before you.  Ain't that easy?

You guys can also develop your strategy depending upon your weak/strong areas. See you in Ahemdabad !
