Results of Cat 2009 – 2010 a disaster for many students

Posted: 01 Mar 2010 12:42 PM PST

The results for common Admission test announced yesterday has been a hiccup for many students since the declaration.

Many students reported the unexpected decrease in their cat scores. Well definitely tolerance limit would be maximum 10%, but many candidates are reporting that their scores has made them dumbstruck.

A status message of a candidate read – ” Last year percentile 98 – this year 21.5%ile. What would be running across mind of such students who sacrifices their whole year for only one thing – Admissions to IIM.

The results has caused a chaos over mass of students and left a question mark on Cat scoring process.

SO question is that, whether Cat people or Prometric will give any justification for same, or whether they will answer only after any RTI claim.


Lets take an true example – A person gets a call from IIM Shillong for 91%ile with an academic of almost 70% in 10th and 12th with 2 year of experience & a student doesn’t get a call from IIM Shillong after securing 97%ile with academics more than 85% overall and same experience.

Well till now only two shortlist has been announced and this much drama has been recognised, what will happen when all IIM’s will declare the shortlist names. Waiting for same.

Well now the critical question for Cat takers is that whether they will continue this Online process for next year as well or come back to paper- pencil test.
