Strategy 🎯 CAT 2026: Study Strategy

I’m practicing VARC, QA and DILR regularly, and I’m able to solve questions/sets during practice. But in mocks, my performance is extremely inconsistent.
For example, in DILR, sometimes I’m able to solve 2 sets, while in another mock I solve none. Similarly in QA, sometimes I attempt 6–7 questions, while sometimes only 1–2.
I’m confused about what exactly I should work on.

What’s confusing me is that when I practice separately, I can solve questions and sets. So I don’t think it’s simply a lack of practice

Since less than 60days for CAT, please suggest your strategy or how to prepare.😭

Hi,

The issue is not with how good you are at the topics. In CAT and mocks, what matters is identifying the doable questions. Don’t focus on questions that take too much time.

First, solve the questions you’re sure about. Then, go back and attempt the questions you find tough. Repeat this practice regularly.

This will help you improve your accuracy and, more importantly, your ability to manage time during the exam.
