Hello Bhagyashri,

There is no different cutoff for engineering and non engineering candidates. All of them are at equal scale, when students appear for CAT exam, as it has three main sections, namely, Logical Reasoning, Quantitative Aptitude, Reading Comprehension. For more information on CAT, you can visit the following website:

I hope this clears your doubt.

All the best..!!!

Hello Bhagyashri,

Yes, definitely, there are advantages for a non engineering student to be an aspirant of CAT. CAT is a national level entrance test to get admission into B schools (MBA). MBA gives a broader aspect of corporate world, irrespective of whether you are from engineering background or not. MBA deals with your aspiration to handle the corporate business world effectively and efficiently. It makes you open for different fields like Marketing, Operations, Finance, Human Resources, etc. Also non engineering candidates are good in aptitude skills, which help them during their MBA, to hone their soft skills. 

If you have any more queries, do write them in the comments section. I hope that the above information is helpful to you.

All the best..!!! 

Hello Bhagyashri. Well CAT is equally fair for applicants of all streams. For engineers, reasoning and quant section can be easy as compared to applicants from other stream. While verbal can be dicey for all streams. Even though the exam pattern gives engineers an advantage, but shortlisting parameters evens the field. So, few IIMs shortlist engineers for interview at 99.5+, while applicants from other stream can be shortlisted at 97-98 percentile. Hence, the whole  process makes it fair for all applicants.

All the best.
