Hi Nitish,
Well it's always good to start early as you will be conceptually clear when it comes to preparing for an exam like CAT which is totally intellect based. Nothing to be scared of because even an average IQ level person can do extremely well in an exam like CAT.
I am an engineer but not boasting about it, if you dedicatedly give just 2 hours of your day to prepare for CAT productively, then you will do extremely well.

Pre-final year candidates are not eligible to apply for MBA entrance examination because the score card of MBA examination is valid only for 1 year.

If you make an error in the educational qualifications section of the MAT form, you can typically make amends during the official correction period offered by AIMA. The correction period is open for a short time after the submission of the application. You can log in with your MAT account and edit the form, but not every field is editable, so check before you submit. If the correction period has closed, then you can contact AIMA support, but changes will not be guaranteed. It is always a good idea to save a copy of your original form for your reference.
