Hi,
Firstly, it is good to start preparing early. It will give you an edge over others later for sure. So, to begin the preparations, divide and manage your time so as to devote equal time for all the sections. For Verbal Ability, Quant, Data Interpretation, practice Arun sharma for each or use any good coaching study material. I recommend TIME. Their material might seem a little difficult, but it will be worth the pain. Also, start using 'Word Power Made Easy'. Lastly, join a test series, be it TIME, IMS or Career Launcher. I would again recommend taking AIMCATs, i.e Time test series. Keep taking these tests seriously, and analyze each test thoroughly so that you don't repeat the same mistakes again in the next test. Hope it helps. All the best.
