    Hi,
    There are certain essential differences between CAT and GMAT.
    1. Quants section of CAT is tougher than GMAT. In CAT you can afford to skip questions, but in GMAT. You cannot do that.
    2. If you don't do well in CAT then next year you can take CAT again. If you don't do well in GMAT. You can retake GMAT after few months. Speed and accuracy is essence of both.
    3. CAT cost: Rs.2000 approximately for per-form.
    4. GMAT. Rs.16k approximately for per appearance. I hope this helps.

    No, I don't think so. All IIMs take admissions from CAT exam.

    CAT score is important to get into IIMs. There's no other option than CAT.

    You need to be an international student to get admitted into IIM-A through GMAT.
