The computer-based test system for CAT 2009 held for the first time last year was marred by technical glitches from the very

first day. Around 2.16 lakh candidates could satisfactorily appear in the test during the 11-day testing window. Candidates faced problems in logging in at centres in Gujarat,Delhi,Mumbai,Pune,Chennai,Bangalore,Kolkata and Bhopal.

Over 7,000 students subsequently took the re-test this January.

The IIMs and Prometric the US firm jointly conducting the test,attributed the glitches to virus attacks and hardware problems. The IIM had awarded a 40 million dollar contract to Prometric to computerise the CAT exam.
