MAT Entrance Exam: The Ultimate Study Checklist
The MAT is a test that will determine whether you have the skills to be a successful engineer, scientist or mathematician. It can also help you make career choices if your results are poor. The MAT exam has changed over time, but the basics remain the same. The key concepts and topics covered on the MAT are similar to those covered on most other standardized tests. However, there are some differences that prepare students well for this challenging test by allowing them to understand what they don't know while they study for it as well as how they can use their preparation time effectively
Choosing your Career path
The first thing to consider is what type of career you want. This is the most important step, because it will dictate your study plan and affect how you approach the rest of this guide. If you choose a career path that doesn't interest or excite you, then it will be difficult for you to stay motivated through all four years of college (and beyond).
So what kinds of careers are there? There are many different types--you could become an engineer or doctor or lawyer; maybe even an astronaut! But one thing they all have in common is that they require specialized knowledge before entering into practice. In other words, none of these professions can be learned overnight; rather they require years upon years of training and practice before anyone can hope at becoming truly proficient in them.
Preparing for MAT
The MAT exam is a computer-based test and there are four sections:
Mathematical concepts - These include questions on geometry, number system and algebra. The questions are designed to test your understanding of these concepts.
Logical reasoning - In this section you will be asked various types of logical reasoning with different sets of data or information. This section tests your ability to understand the given information, analyze it and draw conclusions based on those findings.
Verbal reasoning - You will be given a passage followed by five statements that may or may not be true about the passage.
Quantitative aptitude - Questions in this section require you to calculate numbers using basic mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division etc., solve problems involving simple algebraic expressions; interpret graphs/charts/diagrams related to data interpretation; interpret tables containing real life examples such as distance travelled (km), time taken (secs) etc.
Plan the next 3 months for MAT
Start with the MAT syllabus.
Know the format of MAT.
Make a study schedule for yourself and stick to it! It's important to know when you are going to start your preparation and how much time you need for each topic, chapter or unit (depending on what kind of syllabus you have).
Try to study daily, even if it's only for 15 minutes a day at first; this will help build up momentum and keep your mind active in studying for the exam.
Don't leave any topic or chapter untouched as there may be questions from those areas on your paper that might seem very basic but could trip up someone who hasn't covered them thoroughly enough before taking their test day exam paper(s). If possible try solving practice papers along with taking notes while reading through each chapter so that they become second nature when writing answers down later on during actual testing sessions too!

You need to be prepared, focused and organized.
You need to have a study plan that covers all the areas of MAT in detail so that you can get an idea of how much time you will need to devote for each topic and also how much time you need for each section of Maths and English Language.
You should take regular breaks during your preparation as it helps in maintaining your concentration levels throughout the exam period which is crucial for success at this level!
