Hey folks......

We are about 3.5 months away from CAT 2026 (Nov 29). I am trying to keep my prep steady & not overload myself with too many resources....... My current routine looks like this

1. Quants : concepts from free Youtube playlists (EduShastra, 2IM) & CAT pyqs for topic wise practice

2. DILR : sectional sets from TIME material & some free caselets online available

3. VARC : daily reading (editorials, Aeon, Hindu np) + 2 RCs & para summary,para jumbles practice

I am focusing more on consistency - even 2-3 hrs daily study feels enough if I stick to it on regular

How all you are structuring their prep in these last 100+ days...... Do you prefer one source for concepts or mix multiple ? also could u plz tell me any underrated free material you have found useful for this final stretch ?

I have just started preparing for CAT 2026 and some days it feels like I am putting in the effort without seeing so much improvement.

For those who have been preparing for a long time while (or even appeared for CAT before)

1. After how many weeks or months did you notice a real improvement in your mock scores or accuracy ?

2. Was there any particular change in ur study routine that made the biggest difference for u ?

3. Did you focus on completing the syllabus first or start taking mocks early ?

I think it will help many beginners to select their path..
