The official website of the CAT 2024 reads, "The CAT 2024 advertisement has been published in several newspapers in multiple languages across the country, however the information contained in the CAT website shall be considered as final."
The exam is a prerequisite for admission to various postgraduate and fellow/doctorate programmes of IIMs. The scores are also allowed to be used by listed non-IIM member institutions.
CAT 2024 will be conducted on November 24 across 170 cities.
Calculation of marks
The percentage of marks a candidate has obtained will be calculated according to the method used by their respective university or institution. If grades or CGPA are awarded, the conversion to a percentage will follow the procedure specified by that university or institution. If the university or institution does not have a conversion scheme for CGPA, the equivalent percentage will be determined by dividing the candidate's CGPA by the maximum possible CGPA and multiplying the result by 100.
