Concept Building Make sure that you have the understanding of all the basic concepts of the topics included in CAT. You should try to connect different topics and then work to simplify the connections using lateral thinking and common sense. You can refer the material to get an idea of the understanding required. Please note that you must focus on Concepts first rather than problem solving. Suggested Books For Concept Building: Quaint: How many of these are you genuinely comfortable with? How many of these were you good at in school? If the answer is most, you don't need to worry. Pick the one you are not comfortable with and attack that topic. If the answer is one or zero, well the alarm bells should be ringing. A simple scheduling tip for you: depending on the breadth and depth of topic, assign 3 to 5 weeks per topic from now onwards.
