How GP Ka Funda Helps You Improve Your Quant Score in CAT?

by CL Educate Ltd on Jul 07, 2025
How GP Ka Funda Helps You Improve Your Quant Score in CAT?

The Quantitative Aptitude section of the Common Admission Test (CAT) has long been a make-or-break component for MBA aspirants. With its focus on mathematical reasoning, problem-solving skills, and time management, it demands more than just conceptual clarity. You need sharp accuracy, speed, and the ability to decode complex problems under pressure. And this is where GP Ka Funda emerges as a game-changer.

If you're preparing for CAT, you've likely heard of Gautam Puri, popularly known as GP Sir. A pioneer in MBA entrance coaching and co-founder of Career Launcher (CL), GP has become a trusted name in the field. His blog, GP Ka Funda, and his specially curated study resources have guided lakhs of students to success in competitive exams. The latest addition to his academic arsenal, "GP Ka Funda Quantitative Aptitude for CAT | Topic-wise Video Solutions 2017-24 for 500+ Questions", is a book designed to transform your Quant preparation.

This blog delves deep into how this book and the philosophy behind GP Ka Funda can help you elevate your Quantitative Aptitude score, not just for CAT but for other management exams like XAT, IIFT, and SNAP too.

Understanding the CAT Quant Section: What's at Stake?

Before we dive into how GP Ka Funda helps, let’s understand the nature of the Quant section:

  • Weightage: Approximately 34 questions (depending on the year)
  • Topics Covered: Arithmetic, Algebra, Number System, Geometry, Mensuration, Modern Maths
  • Level of Difficulty: Moderate to Difficult
  • Skills Tested: Conceptual clarity, application, speed, accuracy, time management

Every mark counts. A strong performance in this section not only improves your overall percentile but also boosts your chances of clearing sectional cutoffs crucial for top IIM calls.

Why GP Ka Funda is the Ideal Prep Companion for Quant?

1.      Topic-Wise Structure: Tame the Syllabus One Step at a Time

GP understands the importance of breaking down the vast syllabus into manageable parts. This book covers CAT questions from 2017 to 2024, organized topic-wise. Whether it's Time-Speed-Distance or Permutations & Combinations, each section begins with problems from actual CAT papers followed by detailed explanations.

Benefits:

  • Master one topic before moving to the next.
  • Identify weak areas and focus your practice accordingly.
  • Use it as a revision tool closer to the exam date.

2.      500+ CAT Questions: Real Practice from Real Exams

Practicing from previous years' CAT papers is essential to understand the pattern and level of difficulty. The book offers more than 500 questions from CAT 2017 to 2024 – all meticulously selected to offer a comprehensive mix of easy, moderate, and difficult problems.

Benefits:

  • Real exam exposure
  • Benchmark your performance against past CAT trends
  • Understand recurring concepts and patterns

3.      Detailed Step-by-Step Video Explanations for Every Question

Perhaps the biggest USP of the book is the video solution for every question. Each solution isn’t just a dry mathematical calculation; it's a mini-lesson where GP sir or a trusted faculty walks you through:

  • Understanding the problem
  • Applying the right formula
  • Alternative methods (shortcuts or logical reasoning)
  • Common traps to avoid

Benefits:

  • Learn visually and reinforce concepts
  • Understand how toppers approach questions
  • Build better time-saving strategies

4.      Proven Strategies & Techniques from the Aptitude Guru

GP sir’s years of experience shine through every page. Throughout the book and videos, you’ll find:

  • Tips on choosing the right questions
  • When to skip a problem
  • Techniques like approximation, elimination, and reverse solving
  • Mindset hacks to stay calm under pressure

These are insights you won’t find in generic prep material.

Benefits:

  • Save crucial minutes during the test
  • Improve accuracy by avoiding common mistakes
  • Develop a winning test-taking strategy

5.      Strengthens Fundamentals While Boosting Exam Readiness

The book ensures that you're not just memorizing formulas but building a deep understanding of concepts. Each chapter builds from simple applications to complex multi-step questions.

Benefits:

  • Clarity in fundamentals
  • Smoother transition to tougher problems
  • Increased confidence in tackling any variation

6.      Curated with the Changing CAT Pattern in Mind

CAT isn’t static. Its structure, weightage, and even difficulty level change year to year. GP’s book is designed with a deep understanding of these changes. The selection of problems reflects the evolving trends, especially with the increase in logic-based quant questions in recent years.

Benefits:

  • Stay relevant to the current CAT pattern
  • Avoid wasting time on outdated question types
  • Better exam strategy

How to Use the Book Effectively?

Here’s a strategic approach to make the most of this guide:

Step 1: Diagnostic Assessment

Start by solving a few questions from different topics without looking at solutions. Identify where you stand.

Step 2: Topic-Wise Deep Dives

Pick one topic at a time, solve the questions, and watch the video explanations for those you got wrong or guessed.

Step 3: Maintain a Mistake Log

Track the questions you consistently get wrong. Write down the error types and learnings from each.

Step 4: Time-Bound Practice

Once you're comfortable with a topic, solve questions with a timer. Try to match the speed needed for CAT.

Step 5: Revision Before Mocks

Use the book as a revision guide closer to the exam. Quickly go through key questions and video solutions for reinforcement.

GP Ka Funda: More Than Just a Book, It’s a Mindset

What truly sets GP Ka Funda apart is the approach it builds within you:

  • Focus on selection, not just solving: You don’t need to solve all questions in CAT, just the right ones.
  • Think like the examiner: Learn to recognize how questions are framed to mislead you.
  • Consistency over cramming: The book builds habits of daily practice and iterative improvement.
  • Learn from your mistakes: Each solution shows not just what to do, but what NOT to do.

Why This Book is a Must for CAT Aspirants?

  • Bridges the gap between practice and application
  • Makes self-study more efficient and effective
  • Acts as a revision guide, practice workbook, and mentor all in one
  • Suited for both first-timers and retakers

GP Ka Funda is Your Secret Weapon

There is no dearth of CAT prep material, but few stand out the way GP Ka Funda Quantitative Aptitude for CAT does. It brings together the essence of over a decade’s CAT papers, expert mentorship, strategic thinking, and detailed visual learning.

If you are serious about improving your Quant score, cracking sectional cut-offs, and pushing your overall percentile higher, then this book isn’t just helpful—it’s essential.

Equip yourself with this master resource and embrace a smarter way to prepare. Let the Aptitude Guru walk you through the toughest terrain, and you’ll soon find yourself not just solving problems, but mastering them.

So, are you ready to elevate your Quant prep with GP Ka Funda?

Get the book. Watch the videos.

Practice the right way. And own the CAT.
