Since you’ve already covered Functions, Quadratic Equations, Linear Equations and Exponents, and there are only 45 days left, I’d suggest prioritising these remaining Algebra topics for CAT 2026:
1. **Logarithms** – properties and equations.
2. **Sequences & Series** – AP, GP and special series.
3. **Inequalities** – quadratic inequalities and solution ranges.
4. **Modulus** – equations, inequalities and graphs.
5. **Polynomials** – roots, coefficients and relationships between roots.
6. **Surds and indices-based equations** – if not already covered.
7. **Maxima and Minima** – expressions, optimisation and range-based questions.
Focus on the basics and CAT PYQs rather than mastering every advanced concept. With 45 days left, prioritise topics you can learn and convert into marks quickly, alongside mocks and revision. Don’t let Algebra consume all your remaining preparation time!
