When filling out the CAT (Common Admission Test) application form, you typically need to provide the aggregate percentage of marks obtained in your graduation. This usually includes the average of all the years of your degree program, not just the final year.

Some universities mention 4 year aggregate on degree certificate. Some metions just final year aggregate.

So you just have to put the mentioned percentage of degree certificate.

Hello,

When filling out the CAT (Common Admission Test) application form, you generally need to provide details of your academic performance, including marks or CGPA from various academic levels. Here’s how it works for undergraduate courses:


Academic Details Required in CAT Form:

1. 10th (Secondary School) Marks:

- You need to fill in the total percentage or CGPA obtained.

2. 12th (Higher Secondary) Marks:

- You need to provide the total percentage or CGPA obtained.

3. Graduation Marks:

- For your undergraduate degree, you typically need to provide the aggregate percentage or CGPA of all semesters or years completed so far.

Specifics for Graduation Marks:

- If You Have Completed Your Degree:

- Enter the final aggregate marks or CGPA for all semesters/years combined.

- If You Are Still in College:

- Provide the aggregate percentage or CGPA up to the most recent year or semester that you have completed. This means if you are in your final year, you should enter the aggregate marks for the first and second years (and third year if applicable) up to the most recent semester.

For Bifurcated Courses (e.g., First Year, Second Year):

- If your undergraduate course is bifurcated into years (like First Year, Second Year, etc.), you need to compute the aggregate percentage or CGPA across all the completed years . This means you should calculate the total marks or CGPA for both the first and second years together and enter that cumulative figure in the CAT form.

Example:

If your course has two years and you are currently in the final year:

- Add up the marks or CGPA from the first and second years.

- Compute the overall percentage or CGPA.

- Enter this cumulative figure in the CAT application form.


Make sure to double-check the details provided in the CAT notification or instructions on the form, as they will have the most accurate and relevant information for the current year.

Hope it helps!
