hi , i have written 5 Major MBA exams this year..I am awaiting the final results of IIT DELHI and IIT kharagpur -VGSOm...I would like to share some of the GYAAN i got while preparing for 18 months...
here are some of the books taht might prove helpful....
VOCAB: 1.norman lewis 2.IMS material wordlist- BRM 3.barron's wordlists.
For RC try reading as many novels as you can and make note of the tough words in them.In fact books by DAN brown has many words that come in BARRONS........try improving the reading speed to about 350 wpm......
QUANTS: 1.arun sharma 2.Trishna's book by TIME
DI: 1.arun sharma has a book for DI as well with lots of exercises.....
GK: 1.try reading the newspapaers. i know thats not easy .... 2.TIME AND IMS have their respective magazines with about 100 GK questions each ,onth GK proves helpful only for exams like IIFT,SNAP and MAT .......but GK is a scoring area where one can boost speed too...
ok all the best try doing the material of TIME and IMS... i might join u guys in the prep if i dont convert.... i have shared what i knew....
we can start a thread for shortcuts too. i have a list of 60-70 shortcuts .. i can post them if needed karthik

Hey deepak,
If you are looking for books for covering the syllabus of CAT then TWI is definitely not the book for u. 'Anyway syllabus of CAT' is something very vague and no book can cover it fully for u.
It just explains you to think differently , and how to reduce your dependency on pen and paper which is very important to tackle any mgmnt exam. The concepts are well supported with examples.
So it's worth taking a look at... hope that helps...;)
My name is Matthew and I am a new member in this forum. I come from Malta, Europe. Glad to now be part of this forum.
By any chance, is it possible for someone to send me an invite for filecatchers.com? I was a member of that site and since I spent some time off the net my account got deleted. I would be very grateful if someone would help me.
hi puys, have anyone of you gone through HOW TO READ BETTER AND FASTER by Norman-Lewis? how good is it? my reading speed is not that good and i want to improve on it. does this book really help in improving reading speed??
Such books don't help at all.The best way to improve your reading speed is to actually try to read fast. To start, you could read newspaper articles. Even in those, start with your favourite section.If your fav section is Sports, read the match previews and columns. Read them as fast as you can. If possible time your reading. Track your progress for one week. Try the same the next week, but focus on more sections of the newspaper. Keep tracking your progress. The next week start reading books written in simple English. Like Chetan Bhagat's books. Track your progress in that. Then start working out RC passages. Track your progress. Improve with every attempt. This exercise will take about 3 months to achieve near-complete perfection.
