Hi Shivangi,

CAT tests your aptitude, so candidates having High IQ also score well with limited preparation.

Since the syllabus of DAT is vast, I would recommend you to give maximum time to DAT. Also, if you are serious about DAT then it would be logical to divert your efforts towards the same.

MBA can be done at any point of time and at any age so don't worry you can go for an MBA later too. 

Now coming to the preparation part,

• Read newspapers daily. especially the editorials.
• For quat, focus on arithmetic and geometry. Practice quant for at least one hour daily.
• DI minimum 2 sets daily.
• Apart from this, take mock tests around 2 per week and sectional and topic wise mocks per day.

This will be enough for your Cat preparation.

All the best!
