Going from 95th percentile to 99th percentile is the toughest. Going from 9000th in the Country to being in the top 1800 or so cannot be easy. So, what do the top 1800 do differently? Or, put differently, what should you do to give yourself the best chance for doing this? In this article we go on to list down <strong>10 <\/strong><em>must do <\/em>things to cross the <strong>99th<\/strong> percentile barrier.<\/amp-fit-text><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Accuracy is Everything<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">The most important point here is straightforward. Be anal about accuracy. Not some notionally brilliant 80% types, but nigh on 100% accuracy.<br>The big difference between 93rd-94th percentile to 98th-99th percentile is accuracy. Having a high accuracy rate is a necessary but not sufficient condition. So, from day 1 aim for near 100% accuracy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Point-1_Spark.png?resize=567%2C319&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Accuracy is everything - 99th percentile\" class=\"wp-image-382\" width=\"567\" height=\"319\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Point-1_Spark.png?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Point-1_Spark.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Point-1_Spark.png?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Point-1_Spark.png?resize=750%2C420&amp;ssl=1 750w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Point-1_Spark.png?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 567px) 100vw, 567px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption>Accuracy is everything!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Read A Lot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">If you have the reading habit, build on it. Read all kinds of nonsense. If you don\u2019t have the reading habit, build it. Read all kinds of nonsense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large\"><p>Reading. <strong><em>always. <\/em><\/strong>pays. off.<\/p><cite>Rajesh Balasubramanian &#8211; IITM, IIMB, Director 2IIM.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">Some folks will tell you that Reading for the last two months alone won\u2019t help. Run from them. Run like the wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Prepare in a Cocoon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">In the last few weeks, every Tom, Dick and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quora.com\/profile\/Rajesh-Balasubramanian-8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Rajesh  (opens in a new tab)\">Rajesh <\/a>will want to give you gyaan and tips on preparation. They might be good (some are great, you know who). But you still need to tune out of this and focus on your preparation. You need to come up with <strong>YOUR <\/strong>plan, <strong>YOUR <\/strong>exam-strategy and build <strong>YOUR <\/strong>routine to crack it. A lot can be outsourced in life, but not this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Take n mocks. And then some more.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mockcat.2iim.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Taking mocks (opens in a new tab)\">Taking mocks<\/a> should become second nature. Take lots and lots of mocks. Preferably from more than one provider. You should reach a point where taking a mock just does not take much out of you. And then start at zero and throw so much into a mock that you get tired at the end of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Build A Strength<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">It really helps if you can tell yourself that no matter how tough the paper is, you will get 99.8 percentile in Quant <strong>definitely<\/strong>. That kind of strength can anchor an assault on 99.5 wonderfully. If you can have one of the three sections nailed in, that\u2019s brilliant. If you are strong in one section, set the bar high. Very high.<br>Note: It should not become an obsession and lead to you chasing a mirage and getting too hung up over your strong suit. Keep that in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Attention to Detail<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">Very crucial. The difference between the 95th and the 99th percentile is a bunch of <strong>small <\/strong>things. If you make these small things a matter of <em>habit<\/em>, the big things will fall in place automatically. As the saying goes, the devil lies in the details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Big-things-Small-things_spark.png?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Big-things-Small-things_spark.png?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Big-things-Small-things_spark.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Big-things-Small-things_spark.png?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/online.2iim.com\/cat-exam\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Big-things-Small-things_spark.png?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the small things?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Computing to the last decimal in DI.<\/li><li>Carefully eliminating the last choice in RC. Instead of saying \u201cthis is a one-out-of-two choice. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not\u201d<\/li><li>Worrying about \u2018another\u2019 way of filling the grid in LR AFTER you have got one solution.<\/li><li>Reading the paragraph in the sequence you have chosen in para jumbles. Just to make sure it reads well.<\/li><li>Continuing to read slowly. Even under time pressure.<\/li><li>Taking a deep breath and pausing to tell yourself you are on the right track even after <strong>skipping <\/strong>4 questions in a row.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Stamina is Critical<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">A lot of students get burnt out during the exam. Make sure you build stamina carefully from day 1. You need to have a sense of when your fatigue errors happen and counter them. Stamina automatically gets <strong>built <\/strong>when you take a bunch of mocks. But focusing on it specifically also gives good returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to build stamina?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go step by step. Create an artificial target. 2 passages from the Hindu, 2 Sudokus and 6 questions from the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"2IIM question bank (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/iim-cat-questions-answers.2iim.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">2IIM question bank<\/a> at break-neck speed. Don\u2019t time yourself and plan to optimise. Pace yourself and promise to remain switched on.<\/li><li>Rattle your weakness area: If you hate DI, tell yourself you will do <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"10 high quality DI sets (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/online.2iim.com\/CAT-question-paper\/\" target=\"_blank\">10 high quality DI sets<\/a> without getting into a murderous mood. Again, don\u2019t tell yourself you will do DI for 1 hour. Tell yourself, you will stay switched on for however long it takes to complete 10 DI sets.<\/li><li>Play around with strategy: One of our students took back-to-back mocks in order to combat fatigue. His reasoning was \u201cIf I can last 6 hours at a stretch even twice. I will have the belief to stay alert for 3 hours easily\u201d. Crazy idea, but it worked for him.<\/li><li>Most importantly, have <strong><em>fun <\/em><\/strong>while preparing. This is a fabulously fun exam to prepare for. You read 4-5 readable passages, solve 25 fun questions and 3-4 interesting puzzles. Become the person who thinks this is a fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Not the one who has a feeling of impending doom.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Push yourself harder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">This is broadly an extension from whatever we have spoken of thus far. Apologies if we are entering into <strong><em>self-help gyaan <\/em><\/strong>territory. But truth is, the guys who crack this exam are the ones who set <em>high demands <\/em>of themselves. If you work till 8 pm but are behind on your mock count. Freshen up, have a light dinner and take a mock from 9pm to 12. Might not be your best performance, but will give you <em>new belief <\/em>that you <strong>CAN DO<\/strong> this stuff. Chances are you will get a decent score and then tell yourself that \u201cIf this is what I can do when I am this tired. I will bl00dly kill this exam when I am fresh\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Try your best to handle pressure.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">This ain\u2019t <strong>easy<\/strong>. There are no easy fixes for this. Make sure that you acknowledge that this is a high-pressure exam and take every effort to de-emphasize that. You need to carry \u2018<em>josh<\/em>\u2019 into the exam hall, not anxiety.<br>Read <a href=\"https:\/\/catscores.2iim.com\/the-road-to-pressure-free-cat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"this article (opens in a new tab)\">this article<\/a>.

Do your favorite things in the run-up to the exam.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">I take the exam, practically, every year. Every-time I take the exam, I would work myself up with all kinds of fun thoughts and stuff the day before the exam and the day of the exam. Chocolates \u2013 yes. Planning for extravagant lunch after the&nbsp;exam \u2013 Yes. Favorite attire \u2013 Yes. Day-dreaming about <strong>smashing <\/strong>the paper out of sight. Yes, oh yes.<br><br>Drink lots of water, get copious amounts of rest and gee yourself up really well. Think of Virendra Sehwag and how he does not care about the opposition players, think of Dhoni and how he stays cool, think of Usain Bolt and about how he comes alive on big occasions.
