    In the CAT exam, there is no upper limit at all to the age for appearing.  The CAT exam's only eligibility criteria is that candidates should hold relevant degrees with the required minimum percentage. The CAT is also open to students who are in the last year of their bachelor's degree programs. Also, students should obtain a minimum of 50% for the open category and at least 45% for the reserved category (SC/ST/PwD). The ones that have work experience will stand to get the job because experience is an add-on or a plus. However, work experience is not compulsory, as it will be a requirement for CAT exam eligibility in 2024.
