CAT 2022: The Common Admission Test (CAT) 2022 examination is about to begin soon on November 27 and so studying from the best book is necessary to score well in the exam. Before selecting a book we need to check that the books provide in-depth details of all the topics specifically of the three main sections- Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension (VARC), Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning (DILR) and Quantitative Aptitude (QA). To qualify for the CAT exam and get admission to the Indian Institute of Management (IIMs), and other B-schools candidates need to follow a proper strategy and study the best books that are recommended by toppers and experts.
As stated by an expert, “CAT tests your skills more than your knowledge. Students should stick to their stronger areas and not try to over-attempt in the exam. They should take a few mock tests in the run-up to the final day and revise their concepts of mathematics. It is a battle of nerves and hence carrying a cool head to the exam centre is very critical”.
Though experts and toppers prefer the study materials provided by coaching institutes but there are also certain books by top authors which are highly recommended by them.
