Introduction: Why Waiting Can Cost You Big

You’ve been thinking about it for weeks. Maybe you even bookmarked the CAT 2025 registration page, but every day you push it to “tomorrow.” If that’s you, here’s a reality check: procrastination at this stage can derail months of preparation.

The clock is ticking: registration started on August 1, 2025, and ends at 5:00 PM on September 13, 2025. There are no exceptions. If you miss it, there’s no second chance until the next year—and your entire year of preparation becomes meaningless without this crucial step.

CAT 2025 isn’t just another exam. With IIM Kozhikode conducting it this year, expect surprises in the exam pattern. Students who get their logistics in place early—registration, photo, documents—free themselves to focus on what truly matters: cracking the exam.

And if you’re unsure about the form itself—what to fill, what to avoid—Quantifiers CAT Academy is here to guide you. Don’t hesitate to reach out. Let’s first ensure your form is submitted, and then let’s talk strategy.

Step 1: CAT 2025 Registration — No More Excuses

Let’s cut to the chase: if the CAT 2025 form isn’t submitted yet, you’re playing with fire. The registration window closes on September 13, 2025, at 5:00 PM IST. After that, there’s no turning back—not even for a moment.

What You Need on Your Side

Here’s your no-nonsense checklist:

Step

What to Do

1

Visit the official CAT 2025 registration portal: iimcat.ac.in

2

Click ‘New Registration’ and complete the form with your personal and academic details.

3

Upload clean, compliant scans: your photo, signature, Class 10, 12, and graduation mark sheets, and category/PwD documents if applicable.

4

Pay the application fee—₹2,600 for General/OBC/EWS; ₹1,300 for SC/ST/PwD candidates.

5

Hit submit, download a snapshot or PDF of your confirmation page, and bookmark it.

Pro Tip: Aim to submit at least 5-7 days before the deadline. This not only gives you a buffer to catch mistakes but may increase your chances of getting a preferred test city.

And remember—if you get stuck, our team at Quantifiers has guided countless aspirants through this process. Reach out, and we’ll make sure your form is good to go.

Step 2: What to Expect from CAT 2025 (IIM Kozhikode Factor)

CAT 2025 will be conducted by IIM Kozhikode (IIM K) — and that’s an important detail for aspirants. The last time IIM K conducted CAT was in 2019, and their paper-setting style gives us some hints about what might come this year.

Section

Expected No. of Questions

Difficulty Level

Notes

VARC (Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension)

24

Moderate–High

Long RCs are Kozhikode’s signature. Expect dense passages.

DILR (Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning)

20

Tough

Known for unconventional sets; practicing puzzles is crucial.

QA (Quantitative Ability)

22

Moderate

Arithmetic-heavy, but don’t ignore Geometry & Algebra.

Pro Tip: If you’re planning your strategy, build extra stamina for RCs and tricky DILR sets. Don’t just solve routine practice questions—simulate real test environments.

If you’re unsure how to adapt to IIM K’s possible exam style, Quantifiers’ faculty has decoded past CAT papers and can help you prepare with mock tests designed to mimic IIM K’s surprises.

Step 3: The 90-Day CAT 2025 Plan (Your Roadmap)

You’ve submitted your form (hopefully by now 👀), and that’s step one out of the way. But here’s the real deal: the next 90 days will make or break your CAT attempt. With the exam scheduled for November 30, 2025, you have just three months to move from preparation mode to performance mode. That’s why your prep needs to be phased, realistic, and built for stamina.

Here’s a practical breakdown:

Phase 1: September – Lay the Foundation & Build Consistency

September is where you set the tone. This month should be about getting the basics right and testing the waters with mocks.

  • Mocks: Attempt 1 mock per week. Don’t obsess over scores—your goal is to understand strengths and weaknesses.
  • Study Plan: Revisit the fundamentals:
    • Arithmetic & Algebra in QA
    • Daily Reading Practice for VARC (editorials, opinion pieces, philosophy articles)
    • Familiarize yourself with at least 1–2 DILR sets daily
  • Analysis: Spend 2–3 hours after each mock breaking down why you lost marks.

Phase 2: October – Accelerate & Strengthen Weak Spots

October is crunch time. By now, you know your weak areas; this month is about sharpening them while building speed.
  • Mocks: Push up to 2–3 mocks per week.
  • Focus Areas:
    • VARC: Practice para-jumbles and inference-based questions (Kozhikode loves these).
    • DILR: Work on unconventional puzzles, not just typical bar graphs and tables.
    • QA: Time-bound sectional tests—20–30 mins per topic.
  • Strategy Building: Learn how to skip questions. CAT is a selection game, not a completion exam.
👉 Don’t just practice blindly — attempt Free Mocks by Quantifiers and see where you actually stand. Use them to refine your strategy, plug the gaps, and build confidence before the real exam.

Phase 3: November – Simulate the Exam & Refine Strategy

This is the month of simulation, not learning new topics. Train yourself to perform under exam-day pressure.

  • Mocks: 3+ per week. Take them at the exact slot timing you expect on exam day—morning, afternoon, or evening.
  • Revision: Revise from our a Quant Formula Book, summarize key RC strategies, and compile a “DILR toolkit” of common patterns.
  • Stamina Building: CAT isn’t just knowledge—it’s endurance. Practice sitting for 2-hour stretches with zero distractions.
  • Micro Adjustments: Fine-tune your test-taking approach: question selection, pacing, and accuracy vs. attempt trade-offs.
