CAT is conducted by IIMs only for their selection. All other institutes are just using the CAT score. You want to go to IIM without appearing for CAT. This is the dumbest question I ever heard.

You have to give the exam. There is no other way. Preferably join a classroom coaching centre and be sincere to it and you will crack the exam. All the Best!

No, to be able to get admission to IIM-K, the candidate must have appeared for CAT. Iims only accept CAT scores. Iims do not accept scores of other entrance exams or provide direct admissions.
