What can I do to clear CAT? I am from commerce background.

You can start preparing diligently for CAT. If you do not have much idea about CAT, I would suggest you to join a coaching institute with good faculty to help you get the basics right in DILR/Verbal/Quant. After the basics the next challenge is to solve the said question within a stipulated time. Hence, second stage of your preparation should deal with giving mocks and analyzing your mistake repeatedly till CAT.
