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.

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
