Hello,
A blurry signature on your CAT admit card may raise concerns, as it could be difficult for authorities to verify your identity. However, if the rest of the admit card details, such as your photograph and personal information, are clear and accurate, it might not cause an immediate issue. It's advisable to ensure that your signature is clear during future document submissions.
But if your signature is still recognizable, even if it's slightly blurry, it should generally not cause a major issue. As long as the exam authorities can identify your signature, they may accept it. However, it's always best to ensure that all details on your admit card are clear to avoid any potential problems during the exam.

If you have a leg fracture and are scheduled to appear for the CAT entrance exam, it’s best to contact the CAT exam conducting authorities directly rather than the local exam center alone. CAT is managed centrally by the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs), and they have established protocols for handling candidates with medical needs. Informing the CAT exam cell (via their official contact channels) will ensure that your request is processed appropriately and documented centrally.
You should explain your medical situation and, if needed, request specific arrangements, such as additional assistance to navigate the exam center or seating adjustments. While reaching out to the CAT exam cell, you may also inquire if additional documentation, such as a medical certificate, is required to facilitate the arrangements. Additionally, contacting the allotted test center as a secondary step could be beneficial, as the local administrators may also help with on-ground assistance.
For official contact information, refer to the CAT website’s helpdesk or contact page, which will have the latest guidelines for handling such requests. Taking these steps should ensure a smoother exam experience despite your injury.

It is not advisable to sit for a major exam like CAT when recovering from a leg fracture but you can.
This is because of the following reasons:
* Physical Discomfort: A fractured leg can be very painful and uncomfortable. This discomfort can distract you from your focus on the exam.
* Limited Mobility: A fractured leg can restrict your mobility, making it difficult to reach the exam center or sit for long hours.
You may increase your chances of exacerbating the injuries and sustaining other injuries during the evaluation in case you do not treat them.
It would always be best to care about your health and strive for recovery. You can post pone the Exam or Seek Medical Advice: Call your doctor to determine whether or not you are capable of doing the examination for diagnosing your physical conditions.
After all, your health comes first. Sorry if it means waiting and recovering instead of risking it all for taking that one exam.
Hi
Yes , if you have completed a Diploma after Class 12 many institutions will accept this qualification as an alternative to the 12th grade for admission to a Bachelor’s degree in Cinema and Television ( B.CAT ) in Film Editing . eligibility criteria vary from college to college but most recognize a diploma in a relevant field as sufficient for entry , especially if it aligns with media , film studies or in similar domain .
Thank you
Yes, you might face an issue even if you get admission to any of the business school in 2024 after appearing for the CAT in 2023. Assuming, that the duration of the MCom programme is two-years. It means that when you get admission to the business school, you will be in the second year of your Master's degree programme (MCom). As of now you cannot pursue two degree courses simultaneously at the same time in regular mode. Therefore, you will be required to leave your MCom degree after the completion of the first year. Secondly, MBA programmes in most of the business schools are the residential programmes. Therefore, it is not possible to pursue two degree programmes at the same time together.
The Common Admission Test (CAT) is one of the most important components to get admission in IIM Bangalore or any other IIMs. In order to get admission in IIMs, you must obtain a good percentile in the CAT. There is no specific percentile stated by the IIMs which will give you a 100% WATPI shortlist. Even scoring a high percentile in the CAT will not give you a guarantee to get an interview call as it depends upon various factors.
IIM Bangalore or any other IIM give consideration to a number of factors while giving a WATPI call. These factors include CAT score, Class 10, Class 12, and Bachelor's degree marks, work experience, academic, and gender diversity, etc. Your first priority should be to clear both the overall percentile of 75 and sectional percentile of 70 in all three sections in case of IIM Bangalore and the overall and sectional percentile as stated by the different IIMs for EWS category candidates. If you have no work experience, it will not be a disadvantage as a number of candidates who get admission in the IIMs are freshers with no work experience. You will not get the marks allotted for work experience.
However, even if you score 95 percentile in the CAT , this will not mean that you will get a confirm WATPI call. Therefore, the CAT score is not the only criteria but is one of the major criteria for admission.
The marks obtained by you in Class 10, Class 12, Graduation, academic, and gender diversity will play a major role to get a shortlist for the WATPI process along with the CAT score and your performance in the WATPI round will play a major role during your final selection.

The duration of time between the completion of your graduation and your admission to the business school will be considered as a gap year. Therefore, considering the fact that you have completed your graduation in 2023, will appear for the CAT in 2024, and get admission to an MBA college in 2025 after completion of your entire selection process, this will be considered a two-year gap.
However, there is no need to worry about this gap year as you can easily justify it during the Personal Interview process. You can justify this gap by doing Internships, Certificate courses, pursuing something related to your area of interest, or by making the interviewer realize the need to invest substantial amount of time in exam preparation. This gap year will not impact your selection chances in the business school.

The CAT score is not the only criteria but is one of the major criteria for admission. The cutoffs will depend upon the category from which you belong to. The cutoffs might be lower for candidates who belong to the reserved category.
The marks obtained by you in Class 10, Class 12, and Graduation, work experience, academic, and gender diversity will play a major role to get a shortlist for the WATPI process and your performance in the WATPI round will play a major role during your final selection.
