From the 2nd year of B.Com, you can join a coaching institute in the evening. Also, solve mock tests frequently.

The best time for preparation is during the B.Com course. Because, you can learn more from your graduate and after your B.Com, you can easily to attend the CAT exam. Thus, preparations starts in degree level. It helps to crore more marks in CAT exam.

Good morning dear, You should start preparing for CAT as the second year of B.Com starts, as It takes almost 7-8 months for a candidate to prepare for CAT if he is parallel doing a degree. Thereafter, 15 days of revision before the exams.

IIM Calcutta has only mentioned accepting GMAT score for admission into EMBA courses.

However, CAT is commonly accepted by other similar institutes for both MBA and MBAEx courses. Thus, candidates are advised to ask admission desk for confirmation on this question.

It is not possible to determine a candidate's admission in IIM Calcutta MBA course through CAT score alone. In Stage 1, a score 85% in CAT will be enough for a general category candidate to be selected for PI+WAT admission stage.

Final admission cutoffs are based on many factors other than CAT score.
