Dear Student,
A year is too much for an exam like CPT. As per my opinion, 2 months are enough for it as to get through, one needs to score 50% in aggregate considering negative marking.
For that, I would suggest you to clear all your basic concepts and fasten your calculations with respect to maths. This will be sufficient.
As in accounts, law and economics the questions will be based on the basic concepts and when it comes to maths what all one need is faster calculating speed.
Refer only institute's books as those are the best guides for CPT exams. Generally, questions come from the practice manuals only.
All the very best for your exam.
Good luck!
