Hello sir,
I want to know that I'm an Economics student , got 48% in BSc and above 50% in MSc can I give CAT examination?
Though i have got less than 50% in BSc?
Another question is i have heard about the students who have statistics in their combination in economics they considered less 5% cut of marks. Is their anysystem like this?

Hi,
The basic eligibelity criteria for writing CAT examination is securing 35% pass in graduation,so you are eligible to give Cat exam.

You need to have a minimum of 50% in your Bachelor's from a recognized university.
Since you have scored less than 50% your not eligible for CAT.

If your from SC/ST category you just need 45% in your Bachelor's degree due to the relaxation provided.

all the best,keep working hard.

Common Admission Test (commonly known as CAT) is stepping stone for MBA seekers to get admitted in the reputed management schools of India.

The minimum requirement for a candidate is to pass with at least 50% marks at the graduation level.

Since you are currently in MSc and applying from Msc and in that you have 50% so you are eligible no need to worry.

and their is nothing like statistics in their combination in economics they considered less 5% cut of marks!!!!

yea you may appear in CAT examination although you have less marks in your graduation.

any graduate student may appear in CAT examination. but you may face problem at the time of admission. some institution give criterion that you mast have minimum of 50% marks in graduation to take admission in that particular institution.

i do not think that there is any system like that the students who have statistics in their combination in economics they considered less 5% cut of marks.

best wishes.

Eligibility for CAT:

For general candidates: A candidate should have got atleast 50% or equivalent CGPA in Graduation.

For SC/ST candidates: A candidate should have got atleast 45% or equivalent CGPA in Graduation.

Final year candidates who will complete their gradudation in 2011 can also apply.

I am not sure about the system.You need to confirm from confirm it from IIMs.

All the best.

Hello,
The eligibility for CAT is- The candidate must have a Bachelor’s Degree, with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA.
For SC/ST/DA candidates it is 45%.
Candidates in final year can also apply.

But regarding your percentage,if you belong to SC/ST category,then only you would be eligible.

And on the second part of your question,as far as iam concerned there is no such relaxation for those having combinations of statistics in economics.

Hey ,
CAT does not have any stringent rules on your graduation marks all you need to have a pass mark and the ability to crack the numbers and words which they give on the day of exam.

But be sure that unless you have a high percentile in CAT is is difficult for you to enter a reputed college.

So be happy that you are now eligible and kindly start your homework now.


TIME books are really comprehensive and please refer to their content to score high marks.

Other institutions also offer quite good books, but the former is better in terms of understanding.

All the best.
