Percentile Calculation Process:
In past few years, the test was conducted around 40 slots and
percentile will be calculated based on the Normalization process. But,
in this year the slots were reduced to 4 to make the Normalization
process much simpler and accurate. The normalization process involves in
calculation of percentile distribution of individual sections. The
Common Admission Test follows the same criteria and procedure which
Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is following for the
Normalization process.
Selection process for IIM’s:
The students who were shortlisted for the IIM’s will be forwarded for
the second stage of selection process. The second stage consists of
Written Ability Test(WAT), Group Discussions(GD) and Personal
Interview(PI). Each IIM has it’s own selection process and will vary
from institute to institute. The Scores of WAT, GD and PI with Academic
scores and CAT scores will be considered for the final calculation of
the Normalization. The students will be shortlisted based on the
categories and reservations and results will be announced through call
letter.

will be charged as Tuition Fees,Course Materials, Libraby,Computer

Indian institute of management guarantees 100% placements for the

recruitment process in IIM’s. The companies from different sectors like
financial, Marketing, E-Commerce, IT and Banking will be taken the
students according to the requirements.The average package in IIM’s will
be 12-15 lakhs as it varies through different institutes. Recently, 64
lakhs annual package offered to the student in IIM Ahmedabad. Students
won’t be worried about placements in IIM’s as there will be 100 percent
placements in IIMs.
CAT Percentiles Estimation:
As the number of slots this year has reduced to 4 the percentile
estimation is made much easier compared to the previous year which
consists of 40 slots. As the difficulty of the test varies from the slot
to slot students were worried about the percentile calcution and
Normalisation scores. But, this year the CAT paper setters had done a
great job by reducing the number of slots.
The paper difficulty in every slot is equal after comparing and
analysis of the test and enquiry the students about the difficulty of
the test who taken the test. The Quantitive ability is very easy in
slots and the maximum questions can be easily done by knowing the basic
topics in Quant where the Data Interpretation is not cake walk where it
consumes lot of time to solve and crack the data. Most of the questions
in Data interpretation were calculation based and time consuming. Coming
to the section- II Verbal ability is not so difficult as previous years
but it’s not easy either. The verbal ability is moderate and needs some
attention while answering the questions. The Logical Ability is
difficult to all slots as the time was not enough to solve all the
questions. Most of the questions were tricky and can be doable if one
cracks the data or logic in it.
After Analysis of the all slots and difficulty of the paper the estimation of the percentile is as follows:
