Guys my slot is 3pm on 17 at accurate institute, greater noida. can anyone tell me how can i reach there from delhi bus stand??

Guys,

My Cat Exam is on 16 NOv:

I have just seen my Admit Card properly and found two problem:


1. In my Admit Card Date of Birth : 22march 1984
But actual is 23 march 1984 and in my all document it is 23 march 1984 only.


2. I have filled my name "Gaurav Kumar Srivastava" same printed in my

10th Board Certificate But in my all ID Proof Name is: "Gaurav Srivastav"

I removed the unneccessary middle name.

In my Driving Licence only the name is Gaurav Kumar Srivastava but it is not visible properly and they are very strict this time.

Should I go for Affidavit/ notary for date of birth as well as Name.

Please reply as i have very less time and i feel little tensed.

It's better that you take Affidavit. It clearly states that in case of name change (sirname change), one should bring appropriate proof; in your case it's not change, but still an ambiguity. Also, contact the test organizers for clarification regarding the date of birth issue.

"The first section is Quantitative Ability & Data Interpretation; the second section is Verbal Ability & Logical Reasoning. These two sections will be implemented sequentially with separate time limits."This clearly states that one cannot choose between two sections i.e. which one to do first..He/She will have to do QA & DI first & then VA & LR.

Like gmat & gre score is valid for next few months.. likewise cat score is also valid or not??

I have registered for CAT by the name: CH VEERRAJU

my first name is 'VEERRAJU' and last name is 'CH'.

so it should display my name as VEERRAJU CH

I was just wondering if i filled the first name and last name columns correctly or not?
Can anyone clarify whether the admitcard displays firstname first and last name last or otherwise?

Thankyou sir ...I m doing that but weak at quant, trying hard...

If you are weak at quants, give more time to quants in preps. Tackle each topic separately. List down all concepts at one place and then try doing questions on that concept more than once. Revise regularly. Hard work at this point of time is the only key to success. All the best..

Thankyou sir ...I m doing that but weak at quant, trying hard...

Hi
I m Monika...
Plz tell me sum last minute tips to crack CAT...I m scoring 70-76 in my mocks...

Do last years CAT questions (1994 onwards). That will help you a lot.

Don't panic on the D Day. If the question is tough, it's for all.. Try to do as much as you can. At least browse every question. There should not be any question unseen.

All the best.

Hi friends,

I see a form for PGP-ABM available in IIM Lucknow's website . Should we fill it and mail it to IIM Lucknow's address ?

Please help me.

There is a Final year certificate format available on CAT website. Though in instructions, final year students are not instructed to fill such forms, what exactly is the need of having this format on website?

Or am I missing something? Does it need to be filled and taken on the day of exam?
This is it: http://www.catiim.in/pdf/final_certi.pdf

my profile
10th-76%
12th-54.6%
b.tech-72%
m getting good mock scores in the range of 92-95...
what are the colleges that i should apply for????

U can apply to FORE,LBSIM,IMI..... n also apply to IIT-D, IIT-M, IIT-KGP

Thanx

hi friends i know i may sound little sarcastic and emotional. but my simple question is can an extensive study plan till 18 nov help me score 80-85 percentile. i know you may not be the best person to judje but now i am ready to give all for scoring. actually i was not serious till now. i have come to know about nibm and want to get into it at any cost. i have my exam on 18th nov. i scored 70 odd percentile last year and they were without any preaparations.

sorry for disturbing the continuity of this thread but i need your advice. thanks in advance

Hi, Is CAT voucher Mandatory for this cat ? I think i have lost it . . My exam is on 22nd October (First Day First Slot). What should i do. . .Please some oine Help. . .

No, not this time :)

1. You will need to bring at least one original and valid (not expired) photo identification to the test centre. The name on your photo identification must match your name as entered in the CAT registration. Acceptable forms of photo identification are limited to Driver's license, Passport, PAN Card, Voter ID, College ID (supported with a valid ATM/credit/debit card with your name), Employee identification card, or a notarized Affidavit with Photo, Signature, Date of Birth and Residential Address. Photocopies of the original are not acceptable. Candidates will not be permitted to take the test if photo identification is not presented.
   
2. If you are a candidate belonging to the SC/ST category and paid the discount fees, then please bring a valid document as proof of your SC/ST eligibility. Without proper documentation, you may not be permitted to take the test.
   
3. You should bring a printed copy of this Admit Card with you to the test center.

I applied (had to check boxes) for different courses during registration. I'm asking if there's any other separate applcation for IIMs, or CAT itself is complete, and no other application needs to be submitted.

Yup it is complete for IIMs.

did not u apply for the different courses in different IIMs when you completing the application? If not, then do it immediately...

Hey i have abt 68% in my UG(upto 4th smester) and i am damn sure it will definitely touch abv 72% by the time i complete my 5th semester(nov'11)...... Can i write 68.1% as my percentage, as the marks come out by november ending and interviews will be after january only.....pls do reply, i want IIM udaipur and 68 or 68.1% make a difference of abt 2 crucial mks!
Also, is it possible to UPDATE our scores in December??

afaik, u can only provide those data which is available to you, not those which will be available in the near future...so provide upto that semester marks which u have...in the interview time u can have your cv with your marks updated...
regarding update in cat application form, nothing can be done after the deadline...

I have submitted the CAT form online, I received my admit card as well on email. Is there any other formality? Do we have to apply separately for IIMs as well? Please tell. Thank you

Hi please clear this.
My name is "ABCDEFG. Y"
Y is the initial.
For CAT reg i have given the name as the same mentioned above. For ID proof i ought to show PAN CARD as i dont have license card.
In pan card it appears as "ABCDEFG"
Means Y is expanded to fathers name.
Since they asked to enter as per SSLC mark sheet i have entered the same that appears in tenth mark sheet as "ABCDEFG. Y"
Now the question is, since i cant show ma tenth marksheet for Primary ID proof. i ought to show only PAN CARD. In pan card the "Y" is expanded. But in CAT Application i didnt expand Y (Since ma tenth marksheet has that initial Y not expanded). Is this a problem
In short ma name appears in CAT application in coherence to tenth mark sheet, but in PAN CARD that initial is expanded.

Please reply

Hi,

Just enter how it is in your X marksheet. It won't be a problem. Even I have done the same thing in my previous attempts. If you are still not convinced, just contact CAT helpline.

How can i reschedule my slot?? Is there any fee for that??

Hi,
You can reschedule your slot without any rescheduling fees. Just go to the site where u registered and you will see the options to reschedule and the good thing is...Your previous appointment doesn't get nulled till you select and accept a new slot.

Hey guys, i have registered for cat 2011...in the registeration process, there was no question asking our extra curricular activities...
IIM-B gives profile based calls on work ex,cat,acads and extra cul.....
So my quesy is how will they be able to shortlist the ppl in the first stage(cat90% as per its notificacation), as they dont know one's extra-cul achievements....pls do clarify....
PS: i dont have work ex and am looking to convert IIMB based on other parametres

For giving out calls only X,XII and graduation marks along with work ex are considered......extra curriculars come into play dring the interview stage......

Hey I filled my CAT application earlier and ticked all the courses offered by all IIMs as they could be edited later. Now I want to withdraw a few. However am doubtful about my eligibility regarding a few of them. I am a B.Tech 4th yr student. Am I eligible for FPM programmes, IIM C's PGDCM (am a non CS guy), IIM B's PGPPM and PGSEM?

Another doubt is how their selection procedure are carried out after CAT? Is there any separate process??

U r not eligible for FPM programmes, they r of doctorate level..
