HI,

You need to appear for entrance exam namely CAT

CAT is not a knowledge intensive exam. It is all about one’s basic quantitative, analytical, logical reasoning and English language skills. You can read and learn the concepts, but it needs a good amount of practice to develop these skills. You can very well prepare on your own given that you remain sincere to your preparation. But, joining a test series and regularly attempting mock tests is important.

For those preparing by themselves, be dedicated and regular. Take as many mock tests as you can, analyse each one and work on your weak areas. Read a lot of books and most important, be self-motivated.

It is all about practice, practice and practice,Apart from practice, reading was the key for verbal ability

During the exam, be calm and do not think about attempting any particular number of questions. You have to focus on accuracy while trying to attempt as many questions as possible. At the end of the day, it is just an exam and your attitude towards it will define how well you perform.

WAT-PI round is the next stage of the selection process.

No such syllabus for WAT ,A good way to start with would be to read up on all the current news, be it of national or international importance.

The WAT topic will never be something that candidates are not aware of, as usually general abstract concepts are asked. In case it is not a familiar topic,  examples or daily life incidents that can be correlated with the topic, could be used to build the essay. Her WAT topic was ‘Why should people in metro cities be encouraged to use public transport?’

'Is having many good friends better than having a 1-2 best friends?'

practising how to write argumentative essays is a good idea. While some need to work harder on their verbal and writing skills,

one should always stick to the point, and not writing unnecessary content to increase the length of the essay, as it will be judged on the quality and not the quantity of work.

GOOD LUCK
