Your average score of all the 4 years combined should be 50 percent marks to be eligible for the Common Admission Test. If you are sure on meeting this criteria only then apply for the Common Admission Test.

Otherwise there is no harm is waiting for one year to apply for Common Admission Test. Therefore you must ensure that 50 percent marks are within your reach to apply for Common Admission Test.

At this moment you can definitely appear for the Common Admission Test. Final year students are not stopped from appearing for the Common Admission Test. You have to ensure that by the end of June next year, you must have necessary documents to take admission.

Which means that you must have degree/mark sheet by the end of June next year. If you failed to provide these documents then no college would offer you admission and therefore you will have to once again appear for the Common Admission Test.

At the same time if you provided the documents but failed to meet the marks criteria, you will be disqualified. Keep these things in mind before applying. If you are still confident of meeting the criteria, then go ahead and apply for the Common Admission Test.


CAT Eligibility

1. The candidate should have completed graduation.

2. Final year students are also eligible.

3. Must have 50 percent marks in graduation.

4. SC/ST need 45 percent marks.

5. There is no relaxation for OBC.


Despite the confidence, in case you missed the marks criteria for CAT, then consider appearing for the Management Aptitude Test to get admission. MAT is also conducted for admission in MBA. There is no marks criteria to appear for Management Aptitude Test.
