  • Hi Sagnik, 
    As you're in your 2nd year, you have plenty of time and chances to score high in the exam.
    I would suggest you to start making a habit of reading novels and newspapers. It will increase words in your vocabulary and speed to read fast. For quant, if you're not able to study, I would suggest starting solving the puzzle. It will give you exposure and develops thinking and reasoning ability. Preparation of exams like CAT cannot be done in 1 night but you need to study daily.

  • Try to solve Logical Reasoning problems from UPSC exam's previous years questions. Refer any book like Arun Sharma for CAT. I think DAta Interpreation,Quantitative aptitude and Logical reasoning are topics to be coverd directly from the books.
