Incase you're left with ample of time go through below mentioned books.
There are plethora of books available but byfar the best have been mentioned below. 1.How to prepare for Quantitative Aptitude for the CAT by Arun Sharma. 2.Pearson Guide to Quantitative Aptitude for CAT by Nishit Sinha. Moreover, recommended to go through TIME Coaching Institute Material for solved examples and last 5year question sets for Quantitative aptitude.
For Easy level problems, or for CMAT and CET preparation you should go with Chandresh Agarwal and notes from CETKing Coaching classes where there is elaborate pattern.
A good strategy would be to practice topics alternately from the 2 parts so that the a balance is maintained.
Try to reduce the time for solving questions. 'Each second saved is a second earned!!'
If there is a particular topic which you think you won't get no matter how much efforts you put, it is okay to strategically leave such topics and focus on other topics.
Try not to miss out the Number systems and geometry as one can expect a good number of questions from these topics.
Lastly practice is a must, so appear for as many Mock tests as possible!
In case of analysing mock test you need to go through the solutions see why did you commit mistakes, why you were not able to attempt some questions. You also need to see whether you are following the right approach in attempting the questions which were correct for you. Because possibly there could be an alternate way which will be shorter and easier. You need to go through the solutions after every attempt of paper, figure out these things, note down if you find something which you can refer in future. This will help you in improving your speed and accuracy.
Also you can make upna strategy of attempting your paper by figuring out your strength and weakness. You can sort the paper into easy, medium and difficult questions and then attempt accordingly. This will again save time for you and help in improving your marks.
All the best for your preparations and exam!!
Make sure you revise these topics after one week. And keep last 10 days only for mocks.
