Can I prepare for XAT with CAT preparation material?

Yes, since the syllabus of the Xavier Aptitude Test and the Common Admission Test are similar, one can prepare for both exams from the same study material. The students will have to study separately only for the Decision Making section of the Xavier Aptitude Test as this section is not a part of the Common Admission Test syllabus. For more details, you may visit the Shiksha Xavier Aptitude Test syllabus page.

Yes, you can definitely use CAT (Common Admission Test) preparation material to prepare for XAT (Xavier Aptitude Test), as there is a significant overlap in the syllabus and level of difficulty between the two exams. Both CAT and XAT have sections on Quantitative Ability, Data Interpretation, Verbal Ability, and Logical Reasoning, which are common to both exams. However, XAT also has a separate section on Decision Making, and a section on General Knowledge, which is not present in CAT. So, while the preparation material for CAT can provide a good foundation for the common sections of XAT candidates should also practice specifically for Decision Making and General Knowledge sections, using appropriate study material and resources. In addition to CAT preparation material, candidates can also refer to XAT-specific preparation books and study material to get a better understanding of the exam pattern and type of questions asked in XAT. It's important to note that while the preparation material is important, the key to success in XAT is consistent practice and thorough understanding of concepts. So, candidates should focus on building their conceptual clarity, practicing regularly, and analyzing their performance to identify areas of improvement.

Yes, you can prepare XAT Quantitative techniques, Data interpretation, Logical reasoning, Language comprehension from CAT material. But for General awareness you have to take a Current Affairs book.
