Kanupriya Gupta 28th Jan, 2020

Dear Aspirant,

Preparing for CAT is a step towards fulfilling your dream of an MBA, so how you choose to prepare becomes the deciding factor of your exam. It is not an easy exam because of being one of the most competitive exams in the country. So here are some basic steps to prepare and ace it!

Know the exam pattern and syllabus in detail : The duration of the exam is 3 hours and you will roughly have an hour to complete each section. This will be a computer-based test with a total number of 100. Each correct answer will secure 3 marks and there will a negative marking of 1 mark for every wrong answer. There are three sections: Quantitative Ability (QA), Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension (VARC) and Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning (DILR). Out of this DILR will have 32 questions and the other two sections, i.e., QA and VARC will have 34 questions. There will be 7-10 non MCQ type questions in each section.

The syllabus is-

DILR- Bar Graphs, Caselets, Column Graphs, Tables, Blood Relations, Calendars, Cubes, Clocks, Number and Letter Series, Binary Logic, Seating Arrangement, Line Charts, Venn Diagrams, Pie Chart, Combination of two or more types linked to each other, Syllogism etc.

QA- Trigonometry, Arithmetic, Higher Maths, Mensuration, Algebra, Geometry, etc.

VARC- English Usage or Grammar, Jumbled Paragraph, Close Passage, Verbal Ability, Reading Comprehension, Synonyms Antonyms, Verbal Reasoning, Facts-Inferences-Judgements etc.

Choose your study material wisely : To prepare for CAT, here are some books you can consider.

  • Quantitative Aptitude for CAT by Nishit Saxena
  • Quantitative Aptitude Quantum CAT by Sarvesh Sharma

What should be my preparation strategy from Today onwards so that i become ready for a good score in jee mains and jee advanced if my jee main January score was 67.8 percentile.

Ayush 27th Jan, 2020
Hello!
The key strategy that one should follow to improve performance in any exam is to identify his weak areas and they can only be found by thorough practice of those topics. The following are a few guidelines you can follow for improvement of your performance in jee mains-
  • Solving past year papers of atleast last 10 years
  • Finding your strong and weak points through past year papers and then devoting your time accordingly
  • If by chance any topic remains unstudied in the vicinity of exam date than better than covering that topic revise your strong points and forget about that topic.
  • Every topic has different weightage, try to cover those topics which have more weightage like conic section in maths, mechanics and optics in physics etc.
  • Some topics which are there in jee mains are not in jee advanced like semiconductor, linear programming, reasoning etc so for advanced study smartly with knowledge of syllabus.
Careers 360 has came up with a new structured mock test+counselling related help content specially for that purpose you can also check out on that via-

where can I get syllabus of jeecup of group k [Information technology (lateral entry)] and also preparation book?

Suryashis Chakraborty 26th Jan, 2020

Hello Almas,

JEECUP happens to be the official gateway to the UP Polytechnic College. JEECUP 2020 is divided into groups (A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I, J and K) and the syllabus and the exam pattern differs from course to course. JEECUP is going to be held in offline mode. 100 questions are to be asked with the students needing to complete them in 3 hours.

For Group K5 (Information Technology), the syllabus is expected to be based on ITI (2 year’s course) trade-wise and Class 10 th , 11 th & 12 th as per the course syllabus of the UP Board.

Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics will carry a weightage of 40% while Information Technology will carry a weightage of 60%.

Since topics in JEECUP 2020 are mostly based on the UP Board Syllabus for Class 10 th & 12 th , the textbooks prescribed by the board are recommended.

Moreover, there are a few books available which can guide one properly:

1. Uttar Pradesh Polytechnic Entrance Exam by Dr. Lal and Jain

2.  UP Polytechnic  Entrance Exam Guide by Vidya Editorial Board

3. Uttar Pradesh  Polytechnic  Exam Physics/Chemistry/ Mathematics with Previous Years' Solved Papers by Arihant Publications

Hope this helps. Careers360 wishes you the best for your future endeavours!

Im an student of B. com part 2 carrying my CAT preparation along with my graduation degree i want to ask that i had got 82% on both of my boards exam and an average student at college level so is CAT exam is too tough for me ? Love to hear you suggestion thanks

Shivika Tyagi 25th Jan, 2020
Hello Ramisha,
There is nothing to worry about. As you said you are preparing for CAT along with your graduation. I think it's such a good start, keep going like this only. Don't take a lot of pressure and don't be negative like you can't do it. If you will just give only two hours a day for cat preparation sincerely than it's sufficient. Keep solving RC's on daily basis and LR/DI set and keep practising aptitude too.
All the best
