Answer
The best study materials for CAT 2026 cover all three sections VARC, DILR, and QA. For books, Arun Sharma's series (13th Edition, McGraw Hill) and Nishit K. Sinha's titles (Pearson) are the most recommended by CAT toppers. For fundamentals, use NCERT Mathematics (Class 6–10) for QA and Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis for vocabulary. For mock tests, IMS SimCATs, TIME AIMCATs, and Cracku mocks are top-rated paid options; free mock tests and previous year CAT papers are available on MBAUniverse.com. Supplement with free YouTube content — Rodha for QA, Gejo Srinivasan (VARC1000) for RC, and 2IIM for DILR.
