The Common Admission Test (CAT) 2025 is a national-level entrance exam for admission into MBA and postgraduate management programmes at the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) and other top B-schools in India. CAT 2025 will be conducted by IIM Kozhikode on November 30, 2025, in three shifts. CAT assesses candidates on Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension (VARC), Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning (DILR), and Quantitative Aptitude (QA). The computer-based test spans two hours, with sectional time limits. Performance in CAT is a crucial criterion for selection, alongside academic records, work experience, and personal interviews at IIMs.
