Updated: Jun 29, 2020

Amidst the scare of Covid-19, a lot of you might be short of resources to prepare for the CAT 2020 exam. I spent some time on finding some free resources online that you can use to prepare for Quantitative Aptitude at home. This time calls for some amount of innovation on your part to design your own timetable for CAT:

 

Let's discuss the resources that are available online for free preparation of QA:


Quantitative Aptitude


For QA, there are the following main areas of concern:


Conceptual Clarity


  • Takshzila Shikshak - This is one of the best YouTube channels that offers free video content on different topics of QA. All you need to do is to search in their playlist for a topic and then watch the videos. I used their videos for Number System and Geometry revision and since I had attended TIME classes beforehand, I can tell you that the quality of teaching is the same. They have 2 YouTube channels:

  1. Old Channel

  2. New Channel

  • PrepCha - This is a YouTube channel powered by TathaGat coaching institute and has some good content on tricks and vedic maths. You can access their channel's playlist here.

  • HitBullsEye - This YouTube channel provides ample questions in each of its videos divided on the basis of QA chapters. It actually shows how questions from that topic are to be solved - click here for link.

For any doubts that you may have, the best resource available online is PagalGuy. Year after year, aspirants, especially the CAT toppers keep a close watch on the active CAT handles of PagalGuy and help their peers in solving their doubts.

You may use these resources for your preparation. This should tell you that there are ample amount of resources available online if you want to prepare seriously. Also, don't feel overwhelmed by the amount of material you can cover. Just move step-by-step, use the existing material (if you have any) and keep smaller targets. Then, pick any resources from the above-mentioned and use them to improve on your existing level of preparation.
