The only way out is practice and practice via mock exams from test series like TestFunda, Oliveboard, etc.
For Preparation you can check below 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 Logical Reasoning , Verbal Ability, Data Interpretation of solved examples and last 5year question sets for Quantitative aptitude. For Easy level problems, or for beginner level preparation you should go with Chandresh Agarwal and notes from CATKing Coaching classes where there is elaborate pattern.

Quantitative Section of CAT exam is usually the most feared section among CAT aspirants. The level of difficulty of Quant and DI questions has been increasing each year in CAT exam and the best strategy is to improve the accuracy. Getting your concepts clear is the key for Quant. It is important for the candidates to start by learning the concepts which are used to solve questions in this section.

When you know the basic concepts, you must practice via examples. It is important to follow the concepts learned, and practice each concept by solving simple examples first, and gradually moving towards the difficult ones.

Besides learning the concepts for Quant, it is equally important that you do not leave any topic uncovered. One of the important strategies to cover each topic is to make a Day-wise preparation plan and schedule some number of days to prepare for that topic.

Mock tests are essential. After taking a mock test, a candidate can evaluate his performance and check in which areas he requires hard work.

Focus on weak topics- The thumb rule of a great preparation is to focus and maximize your efforts on your weak areas. While preparation, one must focus on learning, practicing and revising the QA topics they are weak in.

Books recommended for Quant section:

All the best.
