Lastly, I'm very happy that the results will be declared in December itself. I think it helps students get rid of the uncertainty. It helps them apply to various other schools in a more informed way. Also, it helps them prepare for the next stage earlier and better! Key Highlights - The registration for the CAT 2014 will remain open for 56 days beginning from August 6 and closing on September 30. Students will be able to download admit card from October 16 to till examination date. The results will be declared in the third week of December 2014. Unlike previous years, the IIM-Indore has cut short the window period for holding examination. The CAT 2014 will be conducted only for two days this year i.e. on November 16 and November 22 only in forenoon and afternoon sessions. The examination will be conducted in 99 cities comprising 354 test sites. (Source : TOI) - No sectional time limits. You can browse across various sections. - Time limit has gone up from 140 mins to 170 mins - Questions have gone up from 60 to 100 - No offline voucher buying. Only the online mode available. - You cannot select a slot of your choice. You can choose up to 3 preferred cities ranked from 1 to 3. CAT 2014 software will randomly allot a slot based on your preferences. It will be an interesting new pattern of conducting the test. It will also be a test for TCS. The earlier agency Prometric had drawn a lot of flak for two reasons - Normalization issues and the CAT 2012 results fiasco. Given that so many thousands will take the test simultaneously across 99 cities and over 350 sites, TCS and IIM Indore will have to ensure that there are not too many technical glitches. -------- Ankit Doshi (The author is also the creator of this platform) All those preparing for top business school exams in India - CAT, XAT,IIFT and GMAT should follow our exclusive aspirant dedicated section - Final Admit here.
