I Have a 87% marks in 12th exam. can I crack the CAT?
Dear Urvish, CAT is an entrance examination for admission to MBA courses. Which means it is a Post Graduation course and for being eligible for that course, you need to complete your Bachelor's degree and secure a minimum aggregate of 50%. It is 50% for General Category and 45% for Reserved Categories. To be honest, your 12th score has got nothing to do with cracking CAT. Yes, your 12th score is instrumental in you being shortlisted for CAT. Because IIMs and top B schools shortlist Candidates based on the Candidate's Academic profile. That is where your 10th, 12th and Graduation marks are considered. You haven't mentioned your highest qualification but you need to complete your Bachelor's degree to be eligible to appear and crack CAT.
Yes you can obviously crack CAT and even get into the IIMs that consider previous academic performances, because your score is very good. However, class 12 scores wre unrelated to CAT. By your score one can easily predict that you sre a hard-working student, so keep working hard and practicing. All the best!
