Questions related to CAT

Hello there,

With a 97 percentile in CAT mocks, you have a strong chance of getting into a top MBA college, especially if you can maintain or improve this percentile in the actual exam. However, admission to top IIMs or other premier institutes (like IIM A, B, C, FMS, etc.) also considers factors like:

1. Academic Profile: Your 10th and 12th marks are somewhat below the typical benchmarks set by the top IIMs, but your B.Tech CGPA is strong.

2. Work Experience (if applicable): Relevant work experience can significantly boost your profile.

3. Diversity Factor: Some colleges give weightage to academic diversity or gender diversity, which could benefit you depending on your profile.


4. Interview and GD/PI Performance: Performing well in the group discussions, written ability test, and personal interviews is critical.

For Tier-1 MBA colleges, if your CAT score remains at or above 97 percentile, you have a fair chance, but your slightly lower 10th and 12th scores may be a minor disadvantage at top IIMs. However, you should still be competitive for other top institutes like MDI, SPJIMR, IITs (for MBA), and others. Keep focusing on your CAT preparation to secure the best percentile possible.

Hope it helps Thankyou!

Hello Student,
Uploading the certificate number instead of the serial number of your category certificate in the CAT application may not immediately nullify your admit card or affect your admission. However, discrepancies in the application form could cause issues later during the verification process, especially at the time of admission.

To avoid potential problems:
Contact CAT authorities: It's best to reach out to CAT helpdesk or authorities via their official helpline or email. Explain the error and ask for guidance on correcting it.
Check for correction windows : CAT sometimes provides a correction window after the application process closes, allowing applicants to fix errors like these.
Document the issue: Keep records of any communications with the authorities regarding this issue, in case it needs to be referenced later.

By addressing it early, you can reduce the risk of complications during the admission process.
Thankyou.
Unfortunately, you cannot change your CGPA after submitting the CAT 2024 form. The information provided in the form is final and cannot be modified.

While some institutions might allow you to update your CGPA during the admission process, this is not always the case. It's best to assume that the information you provided in the CAT form will be the basis for your application.

If your final CGPA is significantly higher than what you initially reported, you might want to consider retaking the CAT exam in the future. This will give you a chance to improve your score and provide a more accurate representation of your academic abilities. However, this is a decision that should be made carefully, as it will require additional time and effort.

It's important to consult with the admissions offices of the institutions you're interested in to determine their specific requirements and policies regarding CGPA updates. They can provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Hello Aspirant,
Common Aptitude Test (CAT) is a national-level exam, for MBA Programmes to get admissions in top management institutions in the country such as IIM's. Filling CAT Form is very crucial as the IIM selection and admission process will depend on this form. The IIM CAT 2024 registration process has started and the last date to apply is September 13.
The important point to note here is that the CAT application form cannot be edited once it is submitted.
Only certain fields can be edited that too when the CAT form correction window opens. Candidates can make changes in their CAT 2024 application form for free of cost when the form correction window opens. Candidates can only edit three fields photograph, signature and test city preference.

Once the CAT application form is submitted, candidates are not allowed to make changes in it. In case, you've made errors, you need to fill a fresh CAT application form and pay the fees again.

Thankyou.

Yes, you can fill the CAT form even if your second-year results are not out yet.

Most MBA programs require a graduation degree with a minimum percentage. While you may not have your final percentage, you can proceed with the application based on your first-year marks and expected performance.

Generally, the eligibility criteria for the CAT exam are quite straightforward:

  • Graduation: Candidates must hold a Bachelor's degree or equivalent qualification in any discipline from a recognized university or institute.
  • Appearing Candidates: Those in their final year of graduation can also apply.

Since you are in the final year of your graduation, you can appear for CAT

All the best
