Needless to say, its gonna be very hard. But if you give your best, you may surprise yourself with the results.
Now the best material that I found along the road--
Quant Ability- Quantum CAT (very thorough & ideal for those weak in QA) + CL (short & exhaustive, exactly what u need 2 months before CAT).
Logical Reasoning - TIME (really very good, covers all the topics, CAT and NON-CAT as well, something that the CL material does not)+ Arun Sharma (really not that needed unless u still feel u are a bit weak even after 3 months of prep)
Verbal Ability-
- Don't ignored the flash cards & i request you PLZ DONT!!!
IN NMAT, IIFT, XAT, SNAP, antonyms & synonyms or "what is the meaning of the word used in the passage" inevitably comes, whose meanings are given in the flash cards. So it will essentially take u 15sec to solve 5 questions while your friends are still wondering what the answer can be, through trial and error. - Refer wren & martin from cover to cover. It really strengthens your grammar part & helps u develop almost a sort of sixth sense to the errors.
Plz do that along with the common book that EVERYONE does, Norman Lewis.
RC can only be improved ONLY by practise & you don't need anything specific for this. U can solve them from past year papers or CL material.
Data Interpretation- Arun Sharma+ Past year . It will test your patience, u will develop this habit of avoiding DI questions, whenever u see it. So PATIENCE is the key here.
If u do this rigorously, then by october, you'll be amazed at your reading speed + ability of picking the right questions. Plus coaching classes do provide u with tips like finding the KEYWORD for PJs, Reading the RC quickly, then going through questions, then again giving a read for greater efficiency etc---these tips are quite common & your teachers will groom you on this.
Your strategy should be completing these materials in the next two and half months thoroughly & then give 3 mock tests. If u see u are scoring 90+, then u r on the right track. If u see that u suck, then pick out the areas that are highlighted as ur weakness (mock test analysis does that) & go back to the basics. This road will be very testing but don't give up.
All the best :)
