The Common Admission Test (CAT) for the country's top management schools, conducted by Indian Institutes of Management, would be held between the 20 day window of October 22 and November 30, 2011. Announcing the CAT 2011, IIMs in a statement said Prometric would continue to be the IT partner in developing and delivering CAT 2011.
The CAT 2011 will have only two sections instead of three. The first section will focus on Quantitative Ability and Data Interpretation and the second on Verbal Ability and Logical Reasoning. These two sections will be implemented sequentially with separate time limits.
The examination will be of 140 minutes. Candidates will have 70 minutes to answer 30 questions within each section which will have an on-screen countdown timer. Once the time ends for the first section, they will move to the second and will no longer be able to go back. Although new in the computer-based version of CAT, this format was previously practised in some of the earlier paper-and-pencil years.
