Re: Is there any consideration for OBC candidate in CAT examination? Dear There,
CAT stands for Common Admission Test. The exam is conducted for getting admission in the IIM's and in top Management colleges for pursuing management courses. * Eligibility criteria for CAT: A candidate must secure 50% and above marks to take CAT examinations. There is no marks relaxation granted to General and OBC category candidates, But SC/ST candidates with 45% marks in graduation are eligible for taking this exam. Candidates in the graduation part 3rd are also eligible to take this examination. As you mentioned you have secured 46% marks in part 2 of graduation you have to work hard to achieve at least 50% marks aggregate in graduation to be eligible for the exam, cause i have mentioned above that there is no any marks relaxation for OBC candidates. Reservation: The govt. has reserved 27% seats for the OBC category candidates. * The pattern of selection in CAT : Written Ability Test. Group Discussion. Personal Interview. * Syllabus for CAT exam is mentioned below : 1st Paper) Time Duration - 1 Hour and 10 Minutes. a) Quantitative Ability. b) Data Interpretation. 2nd Paper) Time Duration - 1 Hour and 10 Minutes. a) Verbal Ability. b) Logical Reasoning.

The selection procedure for this exam usually consists of Written Examination, Personal Interview and Group Discussion round. Apart from CAT scores weightage is also given to academic performance, work experience, group discussion, written assessment and interview performance. Exam Pattern:-
There is relaxation available but only for the SC/ST candidates and PWD candidates. So the relaxation that you are hoping for is not available for the OBC candidates. For the rest of the category 50% of marks is the criteria. Please Note:- Now the marks secured by you is the aggregate marks of two year. You have just appeared for the third year and the result is yet to come out. So if your third year marks in anyway is capable of bridging that 4% marks gap then you will be definitely eligible to sit for the CAT examination. Hope this helps :-> :-> |

Re: Is there any consideration for OBC candidate in CAT examination? Common Admission Test is conducted for MBA admission. The primary goal of candidates is to take admission for the Indian Institutes of Management that are considered as the best business schools in the country. The Master of Business Administration is 2 years post graduation course that can be pursued in various streams such as: Finance Banking IT Economics Aviation Hotel Management Retail Management Marketing Human Resources The requirement for the Common Admission Test as you rightly pointed out is 50 percent. Unfortunately there is no relaxation for the Other Backward Classes. Only the SC and ST are eligible for 5 percent relaxation. Which means that if you failed to score 50 percent, you can't appear for the Common Admission Test. Therefore you should work hard to get those extra 4 percentage. But if you still failed to do so, then you must consider appearing for other entrance exams. For example Management Aptitude Test. There is no percentage criteria for MAT therefore no matter how much you have scored in graduation you can always appear for the MAT. It is conducted 4 times a year. |
