The Common Admission Test 2023 is in full swing! The third and final shift started today at 4.30 pm and is expected to end at 6.30 pm.
Reports from the first slot of the exam suggest that the difficulty level was moderate. The afternoon shift is said to have been between moderate and difficult.
The CAT consists of three sections: Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension, Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning, and Quantitative Ability. It is a prerequisite for enrollment in MBA programmes by the 20 IIMs and more than 1,200 B-schools across India.
IIM Mumbai has laid out its admission policy for the three MBA programmes based on CAT scores. The programmes are: Master of Business Administration, MBA, and MBA. IIM Bangalore is also giving greater weight to the personal interview round for admission to its MBA programmes.
The registration process for CAT 2023 saw a huge turnout, with over 3.3 lakh students registering for the exam. Last year, the number of registrations was 11 per cent higher than this year.
The first shift of the exam was held between 8:30 and 10:30 am, while the second shift began at 12:30 pm and ended at 2:30 pm. The third and last shift started at 4:30 pm and is expected to finish at 6:30 pm.
An unfortunate incident occurred in Gujarat's Ahmedabad, where few students were not allowed to enter the examination hall as they were late by one minute. A post on X reported that the students' train was delayed by two hours due to heavy rainfall in Ahmedabad.
The CAT 2023 answer key is expected to be released in the second week of January 2024 at the official CAT 2023 website — iimcat.ac.in. The result is likely to be declared at the same time.
