Common Admission TestCommon Admission Test (CAT) is an all India test conducted by the Indian Institutes of Management (IIM) as an entrance test for the management programmes of IIMs. The CAT is undoubtedly the world's toughest entrance examination for any graduate institute. The test taker is expected to excel in arithmetic problem solving, geometry, statistics, data interpretation, logical reasoning in solving complex puzzles and very strong in English as well. Also, there are around 150 questions to be solved in two hours and even 100 attempts could be considered very competitive. 130,000 students are competing for less than 1000 general seats in the IIM's which makes it even more selective than all the Ivy League Universities put together. Even with a top 1% score, you need to be very competitive and very lucky to be considered for an admission. Usually a score in the top 0.5% would be preferable. A survey conducted by the Economist's MBA Rankings show that the test has an applicant to student ratio of 100:1, making it the toughest B-school to gain admission into. Competitive as it is, the CAT is the ideal examination to weed out students who cannot take the stress, skills and the hard work it takes to survive in the IIMs.That's all there is to the world's toughest examination. The entrance test conducted by Cochin University of Science and Technology is also known as CAT or Common Admission Test
