Last Day tips for MAT Exam



Now MAT is coming and it’s important that you get serious and prepare well, here we are giving you some tips for preparing for MAT.

Break Exam  day

1. Expectation of the Paper:
                Don’t be sure of the format of the question paper this year because this year in CAT exam also none of us had any idea about the format. Hence please always remember that going into an exam with a fixed mind set does not help a lot.
2. Cracking the First question:
                Try to solve first few questions correctly which will give you the boost for rest of the paper and help you in your confidence level. It could be a good strategy to solve the GK towards the end rather than at the beginning because of the above reason. Also the issue of a person being fresh also adds credence to this point
3. MAT is Different : Traditionally MAT was the same format as CAT, but over the last few years there has been a consious decision to differentiate between XLRI and IIMs. Hence please be very careful in the preparation for this exam as the format and the content of this exam is vastly different from CAT.
It’s preferable to  arrive at the exam hall well in advance for the exam . Even had a short nap also!!! Though we would not advice the nap, please get to the Exam hall atleast 30 minutes in advance. Also the standard advice of pencils and erasers should hold true.
One final experience, when you attended the MAT exam, don’t  get at first ’’ Pschyed out ’’ looking at the crowd. But please remember that not all the people who shall appear will have put in the same effort as you have and be always confident of cracking the exam.
Good Luck for MAT exam.
