One thing at first I want to say, as u r preparing for CAT dn plzz abolish d idea of attempting for 1st time..Im also a student like u..Ds is my first try..Bt CAT is so much competetive nw a days dt every time u have to think dt its my first & last attempt..Dn only U can put ur full effort..Otherwise it wud b really hard to open d knot of CAT..

Nyway:
For Q.A.
Books:(i)P.Pandey
(ii)N.Sinha
(iii)A.Sharma
(iv)Saveresh Kumar Verma
Study material of Coachin Institutes:
(i)Career Launcher
(ii)TIME
Bt IMS is not upto the mark regarding Q.A. section...

U can collect ny two books and study hard....But dont forget to clear all d concepts..Bcoz oflate CAT demands good concepts rather than just the application of FORMULE...

Ny commnts is highly acceptable...

Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u...

Dipanjan......

Hi Sneha,
Though due to sm problem I have not joined in any coaching institute but i think if ur basic is ok! dn u can easyly grab d Q.A.
I am not frm CBSE board,I am from WBSE..D book dt u used to practise during ur school day dts sufficent...U can collect also book of Amal K Bhoumik,S.N.Dey,S.P.Ghosh(QB type),Hall & Knight...

Bt dnt b tensed..Just work hard, do plethora of sums..Result shud come...

All d best 4 CAT@08

Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u....

Regards,
Dipanjan.....

Hi sneha,
I m also preparing for CAT 08. When I started, I 2 was having problem in Quant. But then I do my institute's Study Material. I think that it would be a great help to u also, If u first complete yours study material instead of going to other books.
When u r relying on that institute then give full confidence to that.
