How should they plan their study on the basis of different sections in the paper and time management?
Time management is critical in an exam like CAT. First of all, you need to be aware which section you are good at and which section you are not. It is a well known fact that IIMs select people with balanced sectionals, so scoring really high in two sections while faltering in the third will not work. Hence time has to be apportioned to the different sections accordingly. Maximize your scores in your strongest sections, but definitely do not neglect your weaker sections. Often we have a mental block that we are weak in a particular section and this lowers our morale. Do not let that happen. Try and analyze in the mock tests the reason you are unable to score in your weaker section and improve on that.Q: 2009 onwards, CAT has gone computer based. In your view, how does this change the exam? A: The main change I see is that all the aspirants will not be taking the test on a single day. This means that people taking the test in the first one or two days might be slightly at a disadvantage
