The "Must-Keep" List: If you could only follow 5 MBA prep resources, which ones survive the wipeout?

Body

We have all been there bookmarking every YouTube video, saving every PDF, and joining every Telegram group, only to end up with digital clutter and zero actual progress. I have realized that the "content overload" phase is the biggest trap for CAT and XAT aspirants. I am currently trimming my own resources down to a definitive "Must-Keep" list. If you had to delete everything except 5 sources for your entire journey from concept basics to mock analysis who makes the cut and why? I am looking for channels or books that provide deep conceptual clarity rather than just quick hacks. Let’s debate.

    The problem isn't the number of resources, it is the lack of active study. People watch videos like they are watching Netflix. If you aren't pausing the video and solving before the teacher does, you are wasting your time.

    I agree on the clutter. I wasted two months just 'preparing to prepare.' My top 5 would be one standard book set, one core concept channel, and then GMATClub for DILR practice. The rest is just noise.

    Honestly, I think 5 is still too many. For me, it's just been Rodha for QA concepts and then straight to past year papers. Watching too many people teach the same concept just creates conflicting methods in my head
