Dear Smriti, if you are in your 2nd year, then unfortunately you cannot appear for CAT. This is for 2 reasons. One being the validity of CAT score is 1 year which means by the time you complete your 3rd year, your CAT score validity will expire and secondly CAT requires Bachelor's degree as the highest qualification. If you are still in your 2nd year of graduation, your highest qualification will still remain 10+2. You may have to wait until next year to appear for CAT.

Hello,

Only Candidates in their final year and those who have completed their graduation and awaiting results are eligible to apply for CAT. One needs to have passed Bachelor's Degree with 50% in any discipline from a recognized university. However, there's relaxation for reserved category,Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST) and Persons with Disability (PWD), should secure minimum 45 percentage regarding this. There's no age limit in terms of appearing for CAT.
