I’m keeping CAT as a backup exam. I need around 40–50 marks to score above the 90 percentile range, which means solving roughly 8 questions correctly in each of the 3 sections.

I scored 91% in 10th, but my 12th marks are quite bad. My basic math foundation up to Class 10 is clear.

I’m planning to dedicate 1 day per week to CAT preparation. What should I prioritize first — rebuilding fundamentals through NCERT/Class 10 maths, or starting sectional mocks directly?

My target is to score above 90 percentile. What strategy would you recommend, and what should I prioritize the most?

As a dropper, how important is it to prepare for both GATE DA and GATE CSE? I’m interested in pursuing an M.Tech in AI, but since I’m taking a drop, I want to choose the best possible strategy.

Should I prepare for both exams, or focus only on GATE CSE? Is GATE CSE alone enough for getting into AI-related M.Tech programs?

Also, if I start preparing for GATE DA from October, is it realistically possible to crack it?

(i have completed c and ds)
