With the exam approaching, candidates should focus on revision, mock tests and improving their speed and accuracy. Studying for long hours is not always enough to get a good percentile. Aspirants also need to identify their weak areas, practise regularly and learn how to manage their time during the exam.
The Common Admission Test (CAT) 2026 is scheduled for November 29.
Mock tests help candidates understand the exam pattern and check their preparation level. However, simply taking tests without reviewing the results may not help them improve. After each test, candidates should check their wrong answers, questions that took too long and topics that need more practice. Every candidate has a different preparation level. Following another aspirant’s timetable without considering personal strengths and weaknesses may not be helpful. Candidates should make a study plan that suits their needs. They can track their mock-test scores, accuracy and time taken to solve questions to understand where they need to improve. With the exam approaching, candidates should focus on revising important topics, solving mock tests and analysing their performance. They should avoid changing their entire study plan at the last minute.
