Hello!
CAT has generally been unpredictable, in terms of the difficulty level and the variety of questions asked. Hence, it's always better to give other exams too like NMAT, SNAP CMAT etc. As a backup for getting into reputed colleges. -
Hi Bhol!
As an average student, you should prepare for the CAT as well as some other exams simultaneously. By doing this, you will be having a lots of opportunities.
Best of luck.
