CAT 2024 is the second-most-recent paper and an indispensable part of any CAT 2026 preparation plan. Here is why it deserves a permanent spot in your practice schedule:
VARC — Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension
VARC in CAT 2024 followed the now-standard 24-question format with 4 RC passages and 8 VA questions. Slot 3 VARC was notably harder, with RC passages that required careful tracking of the author's logical progression across paragraphs. VA questions across all three slots leaned toward parajumbles and para-summary.
Quick strategy tip: In CAT 2024, para-summary questions appeared alongside standard parajumbles. Read the summary options carefully — two often seem correct. The right one will be both accurate and complete without adding information not in the paragraph.
