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.
