CAT is conducted for admission to postgraduate, fellowship, or doctoral-level business programs at Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) and other top business schools in India.
The CAT exam will include three sections: data interpretation and logical reasoning, verbal and reading comprehension, and quantitative aptitude. The 2024 CAT question paper will feature two types of questions: multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and type-in-the-answer (TITA), with a total score of 198 marks.
There are 21 IIMs and over 1,000 other MBA institutions that accept CAT scores. Notable non-IIM B-schools include FMS Delhi, SJMSoM IIT Mumbai, MDI Gurgaon, DoMS IIT Delhi, and SPJIMR Mumbai.
In the previous year, 3.28 lakh candidates registered for the exam, with 2.88 lakh sitting for it. MBA entrance exam registrations saw a notable increase in 2023, with CAT registrations rising by 30%, SNAP by 25%, and MAT by 18% compared to 2022.
