HI,

Yes any graduate can give it may it be from medical background or engineering background.


The Common Admission Test (CAT) is a computer based test held in India. The test scores a candidate on the bases of Quantitative Ability (QA), Verbal Ability (VA) and Reading Comprehension (RC), Data Interpretation (DI) and Logical Reasoning (LR).


CAT is an all India examination for entrance to prestigious IIMs. Other MBA institute use CAT scorr as well for their admission Criteria. If you score well in CAT ,then it will definayely help you in securing admission in a good B-School. Although it is just a part of admission process, it has a considerable weightage in most admission processes.
