The Common Admission Test (CAT) is a computer based test held in India. The Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) started this exam and use the test for selecting students for their business administration programs. The test is conducted every year by one of the IIM's based on a policy of rotation.

Typically, an average student requires anywhere from 300 to 500 hours to prepare for CAT. Even if you can study two to three hours a day till the day of the CAT, you have enough time.
