It is recommended to give 1 year for thorough preparation for CAT but number of hours of study may vary for different candidates preparing for CAT. If you are giving more than 8 hours daily, then you can even complete the preparation in 6 months. There are different approaches that many people follow to prepare for CAT. It completely depends on candidate's ability to learn and grasp concepts and the number of hours per day a candidate is giving to study. Some candidates complete the entire syllabus and then they go for Mocks but some directly start from mocks. People who do not have an year time for preparation, they usually take the second approach to save time. They give mocks, analyze them, identify their strengths and weaknesses, they work on those topics in which they are weak and refine their strengths, increase their answering speed per question along with th accuracy. They monitor and analyze each and every mock. They also focus on solVING previous year question papers of CAT as much as possible.
