When should I start preparing for the CAT 2017? ?

CAT Preparation may take 10–12 months for a person with average past academic record, 6–8 months for a person with above average past academic record and 3–4 months for a person with excellent past academic record. As CAT’17 is held in end of November/December, December’16 or January’17 is the best time to start your preparation. Divide the preparation in phases. The reason to divide the preparation in phases is that you need to have clear goals for every month/phase. Phase 1: Till December Develop reading Skills Develop your reading skills by reading daily newspaper editorials and business news so that you can simultaneously improve your reading speed and knowledge which shall help you during your GD-PI process.
