Can BA students appear in CAT exams??
hello there,
Yes, infact a graduate from any stream can appear in the exam.
Arts background students get an edge over others while appearing in written test and interview process because of their excellent command over English language and inter-personal skills. Moreover, now quite a few IIMs give out extra marks to non- engineering students
Hope this helps.
Hi sanchit,
The basic criteria to be eligible to write CAT examination is that the candidate must have an undergraduate degree from any stream, may it be arts, commerce or science. The minimum expectation from the board is that the candidate must have at least 50% in their UG degree in order to appear for CAT examination.
Therefore a BA student can very well appear in CAT exam and can also pursue a MBA degree if he/she has 50% in his /her UG degree.
