6 years agoYou will have to give CAT, as CAT is conducted by IIMS themselves, as a first step for selection process. You can try for the next year. -
Sorry, you can't. This is one of the most dumb questions. -
Yes, there are over 50 MBA entrance exams in India out of which, about seven are conducted at national level. Candidates can opt for CMAT MAT XAT IIFT SNAP GMAT ATMA instead of CAT. Hope it helps. -
You cannot apply for IIM without CAT score. They look for CAT score before accepting your admission. It is better that you first appear for CAT get a good score and then apply for IIM. All the best. -
You can't get admission in IIM. They conduct CAT for admission and they only take CAT qualified. So, you got no chance than appearing for CAT.

In today's time, all we want is a high placement from a college, so prefer the best college for MBA. No matter from where you pursued your Bachelor's degree, go for CAT preparation. If you will score around 99-100 percentile, you may get a call from IIM. -
CAT score is mandatory for studying at IIM's. -
Hi,
How are you?
In today's time, all we want is a high placement from a college so prefer the best college for MBA. No matter from where you pursued your Bachelor's degree, go for CAT preparation.
If you will score around 99-100 percentile, you may get a call from IIM. So, go for it!
Thank you and keep asking! -
There is no other way to get into an IIM. You have to take UPCAT, as it is exclusively conducted by the IIMS. So, please start preparing, if you want to achieve your goal of studying from IIMS.
