How to Analyze Your CAT Mock Test Like a Pro?

 

Taking a CAT mock test is just the first step; what you do next makes all the difference. A smart analysis after every mock can level up your preparation and improve your score faster than just solving the questions.

Review Each Section Separately:

Check Quant, DILR, and VARC one by one. Note down your well-scored areas and where you struggled. Check how much time you spent and how accurate you were in each type of question.

Spot Your Strengths and Weak Spots:

Look at each section closely and deeply. Check what topics are easy and what topics are tough, and note down both topics that are easy and tough for you, and focus more on the tough topics.

Understand Your Mistakes:

This step is very important. For every wrong answer, ask yourself -

·       Was it a silly mistake?

·       Did you misread the question?

·       Didn’t know the concept?

Note down your reasons so you can fix it and avoid repeating the same mistake in the exam time.

Resolve without Pressure:

Take all the questions you got wrong or skipped and try them again, and this time without a timer. It helps you to understand the logic better and build more confidence without any pressure.

Track Your Progress:

Use a notebook to note down these things -

·       Topics you struggled with

·       Repeated mistakes

·       Strategies that help

Do this after every CAT mock test to see how you’re improving over time.
