It\u2019s being conducted by a computer-based system in two session\u2019s i.e. morning and the afternoon session.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/studysid.com\/blog\/how-to-prepare-for-cat-from-scratch\/\">CAT<\/a> is for all those aspiring candidates who want to go for post-graduation program from the world-famous IIMs. It\u2019s an entrance exam to enter into the 2 year MBA program.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has 3 sections:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b> Quantitative Ability<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b> Verbal Ability &amp; Reading Comprehension<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b> Data Interpretation &amp; Logical Reasoning<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Why CAT?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The CAT is a very prestigious exam and the scope of the CAT exam is unmatched. The difficulty arises due to the immense levels of competition as more than 240,000 (as per 2018 registrations) candidates sit for a seat in about 18 or so IIMs each having a batch strength that varies from 200 to 400.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any competitive exam is a measure of your ability and skills, the more so when it comes to CAT in specific. Hence a good performance in the examination will always be a sign and measure of your potential and competence. The score will be with you for the rest of your life and contribute to building a great profile.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Getting a Postgraduate degree in management has the potential to accelerate your career, or can be an efficient way for you to switch career paths. The CAT exam is the way to go if you\u2019re aiming to get into any of the top Indian B Schools as the scope of the CAT exam is boundless. Keep in mind that B school is not another degree to prove your employability, it is a means to re-direct and boost your existing career, hence you must have a specialised field of knowledge with experience to back it up. Getting experience after your bachelor&#8217;s programme isn\u2019t to satisfy the criteria for MBA, but it is for you to build a career before attempting to turn it around.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Now, after successfully giving the CAT, here are the top IIMs you can apply to.<\/strong> ( <a
