The Common Admission Test (CAT) to the Indian Institutes of Managements (IIM)and other premier Business schools turned out to be a major blunder as servers crashed across India on Saturday, when the test was a online for the first time.
For the past 33 years, the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) have been conducting the Common Admission Test (CAT) in a paper-pencil format. It was this year that the most important entrance examination for MBA aspirants in India was taken online and made a Computer-based Test.
The first-ever online CAT was greeted by a technical glitch that led to the cancellation of the examination in Chennai, Kolkata, Bhopal, Bangalore, Mumbai and Pune, as per reports.
CAT 2009 was taken by nearly 2,50, 000 students across the country.The test is being held in 32 cities between November 28 and December 7.
Entry to IIMs in Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Kolkata, Indore, Lucknow, Kozhikode and Shillong is determined by CAT score.
