Hi, eligibility criteria for cat 2022 is:

  • In order to be eligible for the CAT Exam, the candidate has to pass at least their Bachelor's degree with at least 50% (for General Category and for candidates from the NC-OBC caste). For SC/ST and Differently Abled (DA) candidates, the percentage required is 45%.
  • For the Degree to be counted, the University who has awarded the degree has to be recognized by the MHRD.
  • If the University awards grades or CGPA instead of marks, the conversion factor given by the University has to be used. If there is no conversion factor specified by the University, the CGPA has to be converted into percentage by direct conversion i.e., divide the CGPA received by the highest CGPA possible and multiply the result by 100.
  • Candidates who have completed their professional degrees with over 50% (45% for SC/ST/PwD) are also eligible for CAT.

Note: For candidates who are appearing for their final year in 2022 (graduating in 2022 or 2023), a promotion/pass certificate in the previous year will make them eligible to appear for CAT 2022.

For Candidates who passed out in 2021 or 2022, the minimum percentage of marks in the undergraduate course has been waived.

So, you can appear. Hope this helps.
