Preparation:

The preparation began early in May as I was working and hence, maintaining time was the major issue. I studied for almost 2 hours a day and solved TIME test papers and a lot of MOCK tests. CAT was on my mind and cracking it was my goal. Though, I didn’t manage to convert the calls but the preparation did help me choose the college which is in the top 20 and has got great placements. As I had a good command on my English especially grammar and Logical reasoning, I invested my majority of the time solving Quant questions as it is my weakness. Solving more than 10 Mock JMET papers and almost all the past CAT papers, I got IIT Kharagpur as my institution.

Advice to juniors:

Coaching classes are not necessary; however joining a good Mock test series is a must. All the best!
