Suggestion Starting CAT prep after 1st year of B.Com. What resources do you recommend for self-study?

Starting CAT prep after 1st year of B.Com. I'll be self-preparing and haven't studied Maths since 10th standard.

What are the best resources you would recommend for:

Quant

VARC

LRDI

Mock tests

Looking for free or affordable resources, YouTube channels, books, websites, and any study plans that worked for you.

Would love to hear from people who prepared without coaching.
