  1. 1. Focus on Revision, Not New Topics  CAT Toppers unanimously agree that in the final month, revising familiar concepts that you have already covered is much more effective than trying to learn new topics. For Srishti Yadav, a VJTI Mumbai engineer who scored 99.69 percentile in CAT 2022 and secured admission to IIM Kozhikode, the final weeks were all about “light preparation”. "I kept my preparation light in the final few days. Rather than starting new topics, I focused on brushing up on Quant formulas and RC strategies," she told MBAUniverse.com. 

  2. 2. Use Mock Tests to Perfect Strategy  CAT Topper Pooja Sudhakar, who gained practical exposure through her marketing role at a startup and now pursues an MBA at SPJIMR Mumbai, told us that her mock analysis was a “game-changer” for her. "Mocks give a clear picture of your preparation, but analyzing them thoroughly is more important. I spent more time reviewing my mistakes than taking new tests," she recalls. Check 20+ Free Online CAT Mock Tests available on MBAUniverse.com. They are 100% based on last 10 Years’ Actual CAT Papers.

  3. 3. Fine-Tune Your Sectional Strategy • Srishti Yadav shares how she finetuned her approach to maximize score in VARC section. "I tried different strategies, like attempting VA questions first in some mocks and RCs first in others. Eventually, I stuck with the one that gave me the highest accuracy," she told MBAUniverse.com. • Similarly, for In the DILR section, Soumik Banerjee emphasizes the importance of “set selection”. "The key to do well in CAT is to quickly choose which sets to solve. I used my mocks to master the art of smart selection," he said. 

  4. 4. Manage Stress and Avoid Burnout Shreyasee Sarkar, an IT professional who cracked CAT with 99.68 percentile to join IIM Calcutta, advocates a “balanced approach” in last few weeks to CAT. "Taking short breaks between study sessions helped me stay productive. Burnout can negatively impact your performance on exam day," she said.   Pooja Sudhakar, who managed to balance her CAT preperation with a full-time job, highlights the importance of taking regular breaks. "I made sure to take one day off every week. Watching a movie or spending time with friends kept me motivated and refreshed," she says.  

  5. 5. Take a break before D-Day!  Soumik Banerjee said, "I did not study the day before the exam. Instead, I focused on relaxing and ensuring everything was in order for exam day," he recalls. Srishti Yadav added, “The last 2-3 days are about staying calm. If your mind is clear, your chances of executing well on exam day are higher."
