9 years agoNo it is not compulsory. But try to give CAT as it will help you get a good college. Start preparing at the earliest. Good Luck. -
Absolutely not! Giving the CAT is a must, only if you are aiming all the IIMs. Else, you can appear for the other exams too like NMAT, CMAT SNAP CET, etc. as per your dream college(s):
