What is the full form of CAT?

The full form of CAT is the Common Admission Test. CAT is a computer-based test for graduate management degree admission. Three sections make up the test.

• VARC (Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension)
• DILR (Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning) and
• QA(Quantitative Ability).

The three-hour online exam is divided into one hour for each section. The IIMs (Indian Management Institutes) started this test and are using it to choose applicants for their PGDM and MBA business administration programmes. One of the IIMs administers the test yearly based on a rotational schedule.

Additionally, the HRD Ministry, Government of India, has approved the institution to be regarded as a university under Section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956, or to possess an equivalent degree.
• Candidates who are beginning their final year of a bachelor’s degree programme or an equivalent qualification exam, as well as those who have completed the requirements for the degree and are awaiting results, may also apply.
