MAT exam is comparatively easier than CAT Exam, level of difficulty in CAT is more than MAT. Also, MAT fetches penalty of 0.25 for each wrong question but CAT fetches 1/3 or say 0.33 penalty for wrong answer. I hope this would help.

CAT is no doubt tougher than MAT. You have to be very consistent in studies for CAT and should have a deep knowledge and intense practice of everything. If you are aiming for CAT 2019, you must start the preparation today. Nothing is impossible, just trust your capabilities. All the best.
