Hello dear,

The CAT exam requires a significant amount of time for preparation, including brushing up on basic concepts and practicing advanced problem-solving. Starting too early can feel overwhelming and may not be sustainable with other academic commitments.

The CAT exam requires a level of focus and maturity that is not always present in class 9. Starting preparation at this stage can be challenging to maintain. At class 9, you're primarily focused on learning foundational concepts. So you just need to boost your fundamentals by practicing more and more at class 9 because the Quantitative Aptitude section of CAT syllabus includes all the topics of Mathematics from Class 9 to 10 such as Arithmetic, Geometry, Algebra, Trigonometry and Mensuration.

Start Preparation 12 Months Prior:

• Begin your CAT preparation around 12 months before the exam date.
• Dedicate 5 to 6 hours daily for studying, focusing on smart work rather than just hard work.

Identify Weak Sections:

• Recognize your weak section at the start of your preparation.
• Allocate more time and attention to improving your weak areas while maintaining practice in all sections

I hope you got your answer, That's all Thank you.

Hello Devansh,  With your VITEEE rank close to 42,000, it is very much possible for you to get CSE in VIT Vellore (CAT 1 or CAT 2) and possible for VIT AP contingent on the opening ranks for that year. CSE in VIT Vellore is very competitive, especially CAT 1, so it is more realistic to get a stream instead. VIT AP is growing, with areas of opportunity and growing, and better infrastructure than what was in the beginning. If you get CSE there as I indicated, the same thought process indicates that it is worth consideration.

Many students say to avoid VIT Bhopal due to it being new (less facilities) and less industry connections. It also does not compare, facility-wise and industry-wise, to VIT Vellore and VIT AP. However, getting CSE is most important and if everything else fails, braking VIT Bhopal is possible. My suggestion would be VIT Vellore (CAT 1 or CAT 2) if you got to sit for CSE or relevant stream. Otherwise, VIT AP is a strong second option. Avoid VIT Bhopal if you have better options.

Best of luck!

With 63% in 12th and 84 percentile in JEE Mains, and belonging to the BC-B category, you have a fair chance to get admission in some good government or private engineering colleges. Your JEE percentile is good, so you can try NITs with lower cutoffs or good state-level colleges in your category. Also, private colleges like VIT, SRM, or other reputed institutes are good options. Participate in counseling carefully and choose branches and colleges based on your rank and category for better chances.
