Sir, I'm an average student still pursuing 3rd semester. I'm planning to write CAT. Does my btech percentage effect my performance in CAT??

Dear Sandhya,

The minimum marks which you need to score at the undergraduate level to be eligible to appear in  CAT is 50% for the general category and 45 % for the reserved category. To know all the details, check the link that is given below.

CAT Eligibility Criteria

Hi Sandilya,

You would need to score at least 50% marks in your graduation (B.Tech in your case) to be eligible to apply for CAT exam. In the final year of your graduation, you can apply for the exam and simultaneously, you can start your preparations for the CAT exam. Just make sure that you start preparing for CAT at least 6 months before the exam date dedicatedly. Being average doesn't mean that you cannot crack the CAT exam. Scoring well in CAT is no rocket science. It's just regular practice, learning time-management skills and getting a professional guidance.
