The question paper will have three sections \u2013 Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension, Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning, and Quantitative Ability. The number of questions has been changing in the past 2 years. In a 3-hour paper, there were 34, 32 and 34 questions respectively. In 2020(2-hours paper), it was 26, 24, 26 respectively and in 2021(2-hours paper), it is expected to further decrease according to the latest CAT notification.<\/p>\n Now, that you know the structure of the question paper and also have a knowledge of what areas are tested, you can plan your preparation in that direction. Make a note of all the topics in the CAT 2022 syllabus and learn the fundamentals of each of these topics.

Refer to the basics of each of these topics again. Solving more problems will eventually help you come up with multiple approaches to solving a single question. Acquiring this skill will give you the luxury to choose the optimal approach among many others for a question.<\/p>\n Sectionals will be most influential in moulding your sectionwise performance across the paper. Sectionals are often noit given much importance, but that is the worst thing that an aspirant can do. Sectionals help you design a strategy, they help you in strengthening your weaker sections and they give you the flexibility to try out a number of approaches in each section. Take CAT sectionals<\/a> at regular intervals and between your mocks.<\/p>\n Take the right number of CAT mocks<\/span><\/p>\n Having a defined test strategy is very important for an aspirant’s successin the exam. In the last four to five months before CAT, start taking mock tests, at least once every week.Taking the right number of mocks is very necessary as far as the CAT is concerned. You can check out this blog<\/a> on the right number of mocks to be taken before CAT 2022. Make sure that you analyze them well and work on your errors before taking the next mock. You can try out 3 Free CAT Mocks<\/a> in our website.<\/p>\n Accuracy is a key factor in CAT. After every mock test, analyze your performance. Segregate the questions into three sets \u2013 Correct, Incorrect and Un-attempted. Learn the underlying concepts of all the questions that you have solved incorrectly. It is important to not repeat the same mistakes again. Decreasing the number of mistakes committed while keeping the number of questions attempted the same will improve your accuracy level, which in turn will increase your overall score.<\/p>\n Solve past years’ CAT papers<\/span><\/p>\n Solving Previous Year CAT Question papers<\/a> is very important as it helps you understand the level of difficulty of the questions asked in CAT. Having an idea of the type of questions that may appear in CAT will prepare you to tackle similar questions on the exam day.<\/p>\n Having a well defined approach to your CAT 2022 preparation will help you execute your plan well and ace the examination. Just make sure that you stick to your plan and strategy. Wish you all the best!<\/p>\nGet accustomed to the CAT Pattern<\/h2>\n
