Communication is a very important tool in management education. The quality of english has been improving day by day in CAT. To score well in CAT one must follow the following guidelines.  

     1. Understand the meaning of each of the words used.

     2. Understand the explicit message conveyed.

     3. Understand the implicit undertones of the passage or sentence.

     4. Analyse the correctness of grammar.

     5. Follow the direction of sentence or the passage.

Thus in order to do well  in  this section,  we need to demonstrate competence on the  above guildelines.  It is easy to see that each question type asked in the CAT paper is trying to test us on one or more of the above.Since the reading comprehension section of the CAT employs almost all these skills in parallel it poses the most hazard to a student.

It is also known that students who are voracious readers do well in this section. This is now clear since they have honed their above skills for years. Hence, in order to excel in Verbal one should start well in time.
