Does The Early Bird Cat The Worm?
A lot of CAT aspirants do begin their preparation about 15-16 months in advance. The reasons can be many Students from the middle belt of India, like Jhark- hand and Bihar understand their linguistic weakness. Therefore, an early effort to prepare wW in time, bring them at least at par with an average English speaking student of Delhi Uni- versity Then there are students who genuinely understand their weakness at theory based application and want to start from foundation building. But, on an average, as Shivnani tells us, a maximum of six to eight months, with a dedicated effort of five hours everyday is enough to crack the CAT. In case you decide to prepare late, the number of hours required per day increases to 10. If you have it in you to put in that much time, besides the three hours of your test preparation classes, then the CAT is yours to take back home. The fact is vehement ly supportedby Shivnani, who himself started preparation in September and made it to IIMAhmedabad. Howeve
