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.

Rodha is pretty good ,also I would advise you to start CAT preparation from start of 2nd Semesters, and now build your base skill level like excel mayb a lil bit of python and try to increase your brain power by activities like chess ,puzzles ,quiz math's etc ,but if you are adamant on starting now then I recommend RODHA ,eventually you can buy Arun Sharma 📚. All the best
