Since you can't be sure of your own accuracy in the VA-RC section, a good strategy is to attempt all questions. Even if you're not confident about the 4 parajumbles, you can at least solve the remaining 30 questions.
Reading speed is really important for cracking the VA-RC section in CAT since you've to attempt all 34 questions if you want to boost your score.
To prepare well for Quant, gain expertise over each topic first. After this, you can work on sectionals and mocks for prep.
You can attempt all 34 questions even for the Quant section, but this may compromise accuracy if the paper is tough. In this case, you can change your strategy and attempt the easy questions first.
To crack the LR-DI section, your strategy can be skimming through all the sets and picking 4-5 easy ones to solve. If time permits, you can work on the rest.
If you're well prepared and calm on CAT day, just answering a few extra questions will end up being the difference between someone who scores a 99 versus someone who scores a 99.91 percentile.
You may attempt fewer questions in CAT, but 100% accuracy is what's important.
