Hey,

The CAT examination is of 3 hours and there are 100 questions of 3 marks each. There is a -1 negative marking for wrong answers.
The total marks is 300 for CAT. There is nothing like minimum qualifying marks in CAT. You have to clear all the sections with the required marks and you need to get percentile required to meet the cut-off.

For GAT, the examination is of 400 marks. There are 100 questions of 4 marks. This examination also has no minimum marks. The cut-off is released by the institute and the merit marks  are determined according to the factors such as number of candidates appearing for the exam, performance of students, etc.

Keerthana from your question, it seem like you are asking about NIFT entrance exam which consists of CAT and GAT. CAT(creative ability test) is of 100 marks total and has 3 questions total and GAT has 100-150 marks depending on the choice of course.
