CAT Syllabus 2023

The IIMs (Indian Institutes of Management) do not have a fixed syllabus for the CAT (Common Admission Test) exam. The questions asked are typically based on middle school Math and English topics. The information presented in this article is based on the general topics that are commonly covered in the CAT exam. The CAT is a computer-based test that is conducted every year by one of the IIMs on a rotational basis. The test scores are calculated based on the candidate's performance in quantitative ability, verbal ability, data interpretation, and logical reasoning. The purpose of this test is to select desired students for various business administration programs offered by the IIMs.
