Coaching Programme for CAT The CAT(Common Admission Test conducted by the IIMs) is the entrance exam for

mo re than 160 management institutes across India, including the 13 IIMs. The compe tition in this exam is very stiff as the best brains in the country compete for the limited seats in the IIMs and other prestigious colleges. The questions in C AT assess your conceptual clarity and can be quite tricky. Therefore, you need s ystematic practice and well-honed skills to be able to do well in this test. CAT 2009 marked the start of a new era, that of the computer-based CAT. However, the content and difficulty level of the exam remained the same as before.
