Geometry is seen regularly past 3 years in CAT and has been favorite. Request you to prepare thoroughly as it holds 4-5 percent weightage every year.
You also need to focus on following topics:-

Number System covers: Basics of Numbers, Divisibility Rules, Divisibility and Factors, HCF / LCM, Finding Out Last Digit, Finding Out Last Two Digits, Number of Trailing Zeroes, Highest Power of a Number in a Factorial, Finding out Remainders, Base Systems. (4-5% of CAT paper)

Algebra covers: Basics Algebraic Formulae, Linear Equations, Quadratic Equations, Higher Degree Equations, Inequalities, Logarithms, Functions (7-8% of total)

In Quants, under CAT exam, topics you can focus more upon are:



#Number System: Ensure that you are clear with the basic concepts of this topic.

#Arithmetic: Though Arithmetic has a vast number of sub-topics, in the last 3 years, only a couple of questions have featured from this topic.

#Algebra: Considering this has been one of the most dominant topics in CAT in the last three years, it makes a lot of sense to place extra emphasis on this topic.

#Geometry: Another topic which has featured quite a lot in the last few years.

#Permutation & Combination/Probability: This is another topic that contributes around one to two questions to the exam.

#Miscellaneous Topics: This includes Set Theory, Trigonometry, and Logarithms.

So most of the topics you have not done, take out some time to prepare for those as well because as I can see they are the important ones. If not all cover a few at least.



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.



Good Luck!!
