best of luck...@@

MAT is divided into 5 sections-
1) reading comphrension
2) data interpretation/ sufficiency
3) quantitative aptitude
4) logical and critical reasoning
5) general awareness
negative marking is there. marks of GA are not added in the total marks.

Should go for coaching or take some books of good publisher to know the tricky methods.Be updated with the short methods as TIME will the main factor in exam

u must have basic english,aptitude and problem solving skills... U practice well to answer comprehension questitions.... Refer some aptitude books and work out more problems... then u ll practice well... R.S.Agarwal book u can follow...

preparing for mat is really just like preparing any other business school exam.
you take an good book with reasoning,quant and verbal sections and practice as many questions as possible,all the best

basic knowledge of suject like english,maths is enough...i dont think coaching class will make any difference...go for any guide book of MAT like arihant guide or any other...this is enough for MAT to get good percentile.generally question paper is not tough but it need practice to complete it with in time constraint...their are mainly four categories of questions
maths,english,reasoning,and data intrepretation....general awareness is optional.
there will be 200 questions....and 80-90 correct answers are enough for a very good MAT score...so strong ur basics and go for good guide book rather than coaching.

Prepare for all the sections thoroughly practice all the aptitude and solved previous year papers so as to have an idea of the paper. Try with some MAT books available in the market or can go to some good coaching center to cope well.

All the best do well.

As MAT is divided into 5 sections you need to first set your priority Section wise, the more tougher the section you should give more time and preference to that section which you think is the most toughest, take mock test.

Pattern of MAT Test:

Having multiple-choice answers, It is an objective type test. There are 150 minutes given to the candidates to answer 200 questions, which are divided into five sections, which are Quantitative Aptitude and Maths, Data Analysis and Sufficiency, reasoning and Logic, General Knowledge, and English Comprehension and Understanding.

just be regular to newspaper for general world events for current affairs topic & english, for maths practice tricks on maths by sakuntala devi ,for reasoning & comprehension follow arihant guide for gmat

join TIME institute if possible. otherwise do following things below:
1: every week read one novel
2: read newspaper for 2 hours
3: try doing Vedic Maths
4: give atleast 6 to 7 hours of study for MAT everyday
5: if vacations are going on then give 11 to 12 hours of study
best of luck dear

keep practise of mat papers regularly.

Clear you basic Maths Concepts. The best place to start is the text books for Class 10 or some study material provided by an institute. Learn as many formulas as possible and find some shortcuts.

2. Work on you vocabulary. Read a lot and observe how a word in used in different contexts.

3. Develop the habit of reading. Newspapers, Magazines and TV can be a great help here.

4. Reasoning skills can be improved by solving puzzles

5. Practice a lot. Solve sets of questions within a time frame. Concentrate on each section and devote equal time.

6. Once you know your strengths and weaknesses, go for some full-length tests. Observe how you improve your score with each passing test.

7. Revise. This is what most of the students miss out on

just get a coaching, if not possible then pepared in home by the help of mat special book. just clear your basics and work hard.

for mat exams you have to prepare in advance with the help of coaching. without coaching you will not clear the exams with good percentage.
