The first thing you DON'T need to do when you are preparing for your CAT is to get worried and worked up about the approaching exam. Remain cool and calm, and prepare well in advance, so that you are familiar with the format and the type of questions that are asked.
What you DO need to do is to review the types of questions on each section, the format, and the directions that are given for each section, and then answer them, while at the same time taking extra care to time yourself.
DO review and study one section of the CAT at one time, and allow yourself at least two months of study and intense preparation before you attempt the sample tests.
DON'T skim through the questions, or the possible answers, even when you are simply practicing. This is because skimming will make you miss important and fine distinctions and nuances of each question, and unless you are familiar with them, you may well end up giving the wrong answers.
If, however, you feel that you are not sure of the correct answer, then what you can DO is quickly eliminate those choices that you know are definitely wrong, and select the answer that you think would be the best choice.
DON'T forget to try your very best to complete each section, before you move on to the next one. When you are attempting sample papers, DON'T forget to pace yourself, so that you can take the time to evaluate each answer, and choose the best one. DON't skip answers, and DON'T randomly and simply GUESS the answers; take the time to make a wise and informed choice. Remember, there is no need to fear your CAT; prepare well, practice well, and DON'T lose your cool at any time!
