Hii There,

The eligibility criteria for CAT typically include the following:

  1. Educational Qualification: CAT applicants must hold a Bachelor's degree from a recognized university or institution, regardless of their field of study. The required minimum aggregate score typically falls in the range of 50% to 55% for general category candidates. However, these criteria may change from year to year and among different institutions. Therefore, it is recommended that candidates consult the official CAT website or the websites of participating management institutes for the most current eligibility details.

  2. Age Limit: The CAT exam does not impose any specific age restrictions, making candidates of all age groups eligible to apply.

  3. Nationality: CAT is open to both Indian citizens and foreign nationals. Non-resident Indians (NRIs) and foreign applicants may have additional eligibility conditions, such as providing GMAT scores, depending on the specific management institutes they are interested in.

  4. Number of Attempts: There are no restrictions on the number of times a candidate can take the CAT exam.


Thanks
