yes indeed...no changes in the test timing...and like IIMA...which has declared that the minimum criteria for selection would be 25% in each section and 33% on the whole( which may be higher depending on the performance of all candidates in the CAT), IIMcChas also mentioned that the minimum criteria is 20% in QA and DI and 10% in verbal...(which may again be higher based on the performance of all candidates in the CAT)....

The notification in today's Times of India explicitly mentions " Three sections". So no ambiguity about that.

BOX 9: Work Experience ( in months as on 31/08/07)
Indicate only paid and full-time work experience, acquired after completing the Bachelor's Degree, as on August 31, 2007
didn't they ask for work experience till 31st December, for last year's cat?
will this change make any difference?

now i'll have to fill the form's work experience box with an embarassing 2 months

Re: [CAT 2007] Notification released,discussions on application related queries - 15-07-2007, 02:48 PM

i have a problem .Iam a final yr engg student and i missed a exam last sem because of illness and in rules it counts as an F, so i can appear for that exam only in the comig holidays .
How do i fill up the form .They would have a box for filling out each sem marks right ? leave the second sem gpa blank ? . apart from that i have no problems with the requirements but i have this doubt .
Does that mean i stand ineligible to apply for cat ?
Anyone had a similar problem or how should i go about it ?

thanks
