Amit, to be eligible for both GMAT and CAT, you should have complwted your Bachelor's degree. But if you have a Diploma, it is not equivalent to a Bachelor's degree and hence you might not be eligible for both GMAT and CAT. Technically both GMAT and CAT are both entrance examinatioms for Post Graduation Programmes.

Hello,

No, you need to have a bachelor's degree to apply for GMAT/CAT exam. The Graduate Management Admission Test is a computer adaptive test for admission to a graduate management program, such as an MBA program. Eligibility Criteria for it is as follows:

ACADEMICS - Candidate must be a graduate from a recognized University.

NATIONALITY - There are NO boundaries to the nationality of a candidate.

AGE LIMIT - Candidate must be 18 years of age.

You can go for B.Sc in Nautical science first. You might get 1 year of relaxation in B.Sc as diploma courses are of 3 years. You will have the sufficient time for the preparation of your GMAT/CAT during B.Sc. Then you can give the exam.
