I am pursuring IDD program (B.Tech Degree is of 3.5 years and M.Tech 1.5 ). in application for CAT 2024 the duration of course is in integers 1,2,3,.... how to fill 2.5 & 1.5 ?

Here's how to handle the IDD program duration for your CAT 2024 application (within 200 words):

CAT application likely offers two options:

Dedicated Option for Integrated Programs: Look for options like "Dual Degree" or "Integrated Program" in the qualification section. If available, select this and enter the total program duration (usually 5 years) in the corresponding field.

Separate Options for Degrees: If dedicated options are unavailable, you'll need to enter details for both B.Tech and M.Tech separately.

B.Tech: Enter "3" as the duration (since the CAT system requires integers). M.Tech: In the "Academic Details" section, provide the start and expected completion dates for the M.Tech program, clearly indicating its 1.5-year duration. This clarifies the overall 5-year IDD structure.

Additional Tips:

Double-check the CAT 2024 information brochure or website for specific instructions on IDD programs. If unsure, contact the CAT helpdesk for clarification. Ensure consistency - the total duration mentioned in the B.Tech section and the combined duration from start and end dates of M.Tech should add up to 5 years.

By following these steps, you can accurately represent your IDD program in your CAT 2024 application.

Hello,

In your application for CAT (Common Admission Test), if you're pursuing an Integrated Dual Degree (IDD) program where your B.Tech is 3.5 years and M.Tech is 1.5 years, you should provide the following information carefully:

1. Educational Qualification Section:

- Degree: When asked to select your qualification, you can select "Dual Degree" or "Integrated Program" if available. If not, you might have to choose "Graduation" and "Post-Graduation" separately.

- Duration: Mention the correct duration of your B.Tech and M.Tech. Usually, you'll mention the total duration of the program (5 years) in the B.Tech or equivalent section if it's integrated. Ensure that this aligns with what is mentioned on your academic records.

- Percentage/CGPA: Include your CGPA or percentage as applicable for your B.Tech and M.Tech. If you’re still pursuing the degree, mention the latest available CGPA/percentage.

- Year of Passing: If you're still studying, mention the expected year of completion.

2. Academic Details:

- Start and End Dates: Clearly state when you started your program and the expected date of completion.

- Course Details: Mention the program name as "Integrated Dual Degree (B.Tech + M.Tech)" or however it is officially named at your institution.

3. Work Experience:

- If you have any work experience, be sure to enter it. However, if your program is full-time, you may not have any relevant work experience to mention.

4. Other Sections:

- Fill in other sections (like personal details, test center preferences, etc.) as per your situation.

If the CAT application has specific instructions for integrated or dual degree programs, follow those. Otherwise, represent your educational qualifications as clearly as possible, ensuring that the information is accurate and reflects your unique degree structure. If needed, you can explain your program during the Personal Interview stage if you clear the CAT exam.

Hope it helps !
