CAT or Common Admission Test is primarily conducted for shortlisting candidates for the admission selection procedure of IIMs. However, CAT scores are also used by several non-IIMs for shortlisting candidates for their selection procedure for admission to MBA programmes. Justifiably so, CAT is considered to be one of the most vied MBA entrance exams.
It is also considered one of the toughest tests. CAT does not have a difficult syllabus but what sets it apart is that instead of testing memorizing power of a student, it tests their analytical and logical reasoning abilities.
Earlier CAT used to be largely dominated by candidates from engineering background. However, in the last couple of years, there has been a significant increase in the number of candidates who belong to non-engineering backgrounds.
