i am a bcom prog. student and im in my third year and want to appear for cat exam this year. i have an option to opt for a fourth year. should i do fourth year if i also plan to give cat this year?

Mitali Sharma 17th Feb, 2025

Hello

If you are aiming for the CAT exam this year and considering joining the fourth year, it might be a good idea if you are confident in managing both your academic workload and CAT preparation .

However, the CAT exam is competitive and balancing your BCom studies and preparation might be challenging.

If you think you can handle the extra year and need more time for focused preparation , joining the fourth year could provide that but you should also evaluate your current academic commitments and your ability to stay consistent with CAT preparation .

Hope this gives you the clarity you need.

with 67 in SC cat .can i get sheet in nit

Prachi Kumari 13th Feb, 2025

Hello,

Securing a seat in a National Institute of Technology (NIT) with a JEE Main score of 67 as an SC category candidate is challenging. Consider the following points:

  • Qualifying Cutoff : The expected qualifying cutoff for SC candidates in JEE Main 2025 is around 65 marks.

  • Admission Prospects : While you may qualify for JEE Advanced, admission to NITs typically requires higher scores. For instance, in previous years, SC candidates needed higher marks to secure seats in NITs.

  • Improvement Opportunity : Consider preparing for the next JEE Main attempt to achieve a higher score, thereby enhancing admission prospects in subsequent counseling rounds.

You can also use the JEE Mains College Predictor Tool to predict which college you can get based on your score.

Hope you find it useful!

I got 88 precentilie cat: SC home state Karanakata, whcih strem i can NIT, IIIT, GFTI etc. to get computer since branch what shoulbe the precentilie i shoud be getting? thanks

Prachi Kumari 13th Feb, 2025

Hello,

With an 88 percentile in the JEE Main exam and belonging to the SC category from Karnataka, your chances of securing a Computer Science Engineering (CSE) seat in NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs are as follows:

  • NITs :

    • Top NITs like NIT Trichy or NIT Surathkal have higher cutoffs for CSE. For instance, in 2024, the closing rank for SC category in CSE at NIT Trichy was around 1,171.
    • With an 88 percentile, your rank might be higher than these cutoffs, making it challenging to secure a CSE seat in top NITs.
  • IIITs :

    • IIITs also have competitive cutoffs for CSE. For example, IIITM Gwalior had a closing rank of 11,494 in 2024, making it highly competitive.
    • Your current percentile may not meet the typical cutoffs for CSE in top IIITs.
  • GFTIs :

    • GFTIs generally have higher closing ranks compared to NITs and IIITs, providing a more accessible option.
    • You may have a better chance of securing a CSE seat in GFTIs with your current percentile.

Prachi Kumari 9th Feb, 2025

Hello,

According to the NIFT 2025 exam schedule , the General Ability Test (GAT) is from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, and the Creative Ability Test (CAT) is from 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM. This indicates a gap of 3.5 hours between the two tests.

The official guidelines do not specify whether candidates are allowed to leave the exam center during this interval. Therefore, it's advisable to:

  1. Check the Admit Card : Specific instructions regarding breaks may be mentioned.

  2. Contact the Exam Center : Reach out directly to confirm their policy on leaving during the interval.

By taking these steps, you can ensure compliance with the exam center's policies and plan your day effectively.

Yes, with a 99 percentile CAT score, you have a good chance of receiving a call from the top IIMs (including BLACKI - IIM Bangalore, IIM Calcutta, IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Lucknow, and IIM Indore) even with a relatively average academic profile like 8/7/8, despite lacking extracurricular activities; however, your chances will be significantly boosted by a strong performance in the Written Ability Test (WAT) and Personal Interview (PI) rounds where you can showcase your strengths and potential beyond just academics.
