Since the dates for CAT notification are out, heat has been turned up on the CAT students. With less than 2 months to go for the exam now, it is imperative that those serious about making it through to the IIMs change gears on their preparation. Some students would be wondering if they really have it in them to make it through the CAT exam, after the initial set of mocks that they have taken. But, if one can identify the weak areas and put in a focused effort to improve upon them, the CAT will be a much tamer animal than it would appear to be otherwise. It is now the Time to Strengthen on your STRONG areas rather than focussing on something NEW learnings.

Verbal Ability (VA)

This includes Para Jumbles correction in para/ vocabulary usage /sentence completion /critical reasoning / summary questions.

Following are a few approaches to answer these questions:

Identify the introductory statement (this statement would tell us what the paragraph is all about)
