Bharath’s Curated Reading List for CAT Exam

I am Bharathwaj from 2IIM. I have taken 8 CATs in the last 10 years, have been associated with CAT Preparation since 2015. I have managed to score a 99.21 percentile in the Verbal Section of CAT 2019. I attribute my score to Reading from a wide variety of sources and ability to not be under pressure during the exam (having completed an MBA helps in handling pressure, but to know more about my take on how to handle pressure better, head on here).

What is this CAT Reading List?

This CAT Reading list is created by me, as a result of spending several thousand hours in reading thousands of articles and picking articles that can help a CAT Aspirant in VARC Preparation for CAT, and has about 1000+ articles in this collection. Most of the articles in this list are going to be much longer than your passage that appears in CAT. It is done intentionally to help one retain the understanding from reading an article and not facts. It is a collection of all articles I have shared across since 2018 on a daily basis. This will also get updated as and when I post new articles. We are also planning to have a weekly list of articles.

How to Make use of CAT Reading List?

Bookmark this CAT Reading List page. (press ctrl + D if on a PC, or press the star on the right of the url bar, if on chrome either on mobile or pc). Keep coming back to it on a daily basis. Reading everyday helps tremendously in your CAT Preparation in two ways to start with:
1. Your VARC Prep takes care of itself.
2. You get more time to spend on Quantitative Aptitude and DI LR Sections.

This page provides you with meticulously curated articles to improve your English Comprehension, especially if you are preparing for Management entrance exams such as CAT, XAT, IIFT etc.

Find articles classified broadly under 6 different major categories. Click on the Category button to view collection of hand picked articles under that category. You can also scroll down to find recent articles from each category listed under tabs.

      Glad the Reading List if of use, Netra. The articles are carefully curated. A lot of effort goes into picking and choosing the right kind of articles while also keeping in mind diversity in genres and themes. These kinds of positive feedback are really important to us 😀

      Going to CAT exam on the D-day with 400 to 500 hours worth solid reading is better than anything else. Read vigorously and continuously, even if there are articles or passages that make you feel like you do not understand anything.

but they, while their companions slept,
were toiling upward in the night.
