- Hello,
- A one word answer to your question could have been - LOTS. But let us see the difference under some heads which are pertinent to the preparation:
- ABOUT EXAMS : CAT is an exam conducted by IIMs for admission to the 20 IIMs and several CAT allied institutions. While CET is an exam conducted by individual state professional examination boards or universitites- such as CET of Maharashtra or CET conducted by DAVV Indore.
- LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY: CAT is the tougher of the two exams. Tough , in terms of the nature of questions asked and tough in terms of competition that you will have to face. Any aspirant for admissions to top B schools in India will write CAT, but may or may not write CET.
