Category A: Must-Do (High Weightage & Scoring) • Business Mathematics & Logic: Time Value of Money (Interest & Annuity), Ratios/Proportions/Indices/Logarithms, Equations (Linear, Quadratic, Cubic), Progressions (AP & GP), Sets/Relations/Functions, and core Logical Reasoning topics (Number Series, Coding/Decoding, Blood Relations, Direction Tests, Seating Arrangements). • Statistics: Measures of Central Tendency & Dispersion, Statistical Description of Data, and Index Numbers. Category B: Important (Moderate Priority) • Permutations & Combinations, Probability, Correlation & Regression, Theoretical Distributions, and quadratic/logarithmic sub-topics. Category C: Selective Study (Low Priority) • Calculus basics (Limits, Continuity, Differentiation, Integration), Linear Inequalities, and advanced Sampling Theory. Preparation Strategy • Phase 1 (Category A): Focus heavily on Category A topics as they yield the highest return and form 65–70% of the paper; prioritize calculator tricks and formulas. • Phase 2 (Category B): Move to Category B for moderate scoring and conceptual coverage. • Phase 3 (Category C): Touch upon Category C only if time permits.
