If you are doing under graduation and are keen to pursue an MBA immediately after it, then it is better that you appear for CAT during your final year of college. That is, if you are finishing your college in May 2019, then you should attempt for CAT 2018. As soon as you graduate out of college you will be having a valid CAT score and will be able to join a school of your choice the next academic year. On the other hand, there are aspirants who actually complete their graduation, take up a job and prepare for CAT alongside. This too is a cool idea because having work experience will add weight to your profile during your admission processes. But again it’s completely your choice. Choose your option without giving a break in your career path anytime. I should also mention that dropping a year after college to prepare only for CAT has its own disadvantages. You might not be able to completely justify as to why you needed a whole year to prepare for CAT instead of preparing in parallel with the job you would have got. In short, attempt for CAT in your final year of college, so that you can continue your higher studies without break, or take up a job, work for a few years preparing for CAT alongside and then join a B-school with work experience in addition.

It is better to prepare while you are in the college because you are in a habit of studying in the college. Also, you have advantage of doing joint studies with your batch mates who are also aiming for CAT. Following can be a good preparation strategy while you are in college or once you get into professional world after getting out of college. Preparation can be three types: Self, self plus coaching and coaching. It depends on whether you are working or a student. So, if you are working you have to prepare either by self-using the correspondence booklets or you can take option of taking weekend coaching classes or you can buy some famous books used for preparation of MBA entrance exams. But if you are a student then you have good amount of time to prepare so you can use the correspondence courses and books initially for self-preparation and later can join coaching classes for brushing up your preparation with added techniques. So, any MBA entrance exam have generally three sections - Quantitative aptitude, logical reasoning & data interpretation and Verbal reasoning along with study of general current affairs. So, depending upon your strengths, weakness and speed prepare the three sections accordingly and nail the exam.

You can prepare for CAT during undergraduate degree in the final year. If you are able to give 3-4 hours daily to studies and practice mocks, then you can crack CAT . All the best.

You can do anything you want. CAT is yet to come out of the bag but MBA aspirants aiming for a seat at a coveted B-School have already started planning on how to crack it. While some students take the safer route and start their preparations even before the notification is announced, some wait to plan their preparation strategy based on the official release of exam pattern. But there is another group, which is in a dilemma on when and how to start the preparation process. Those who are in college. I think starting the preparation during undergraduate is a good idea. You can start studying during the last two years of college. It will help you in cracking the exam. You will have an advantage over those who are waiting to pass out and start the course. But juggling between college and CAT preparation is not easy. So, be sure that it does not affect your college studies.

I think CAT preparation during undergraduate degree will be best idea. You can easily manage college subjects along with CAT preparation. You will have to make effective study plan for that. Here are some tips which you should follow for best outcome: 1. You can join a good coaching (if possible) for CAT preparation. TIME coaching institute is considered best for that. There is always an option of buying study materials if you can't join coaching. 2. You should make a group for discussion part. 3 Avoid using social networking sites like Facebook, WhatsApp, etc. 4. Read The Hindu editorial regularly. 5 Improve your grammar and increase your vocabulary (You can take help of mobile apps). 6. Solve previous year’s papers as well. 7. Don't lose hope .You should study your college subjects too. You will have to use your free times and weekends properly.
