The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) has announced that the official mock test for the Common Admission Test (CAT 2023) is live from today, November 14. Registered candidates can attempt the mock tests on the official website iimcat.ac.in.

The examination is scheduled to be conducted on November 26 in Computer Based Test or CBT mode. Earlier, the admit cards were scheduled to be released on October 25.

“The Mock Test contains selected questions from previous years’ Common Admission Test (CAT) papers with an aim to familiarize the candidates with different types of questions generally asked in CAT (MCQs/ Non-MCQs) and the exam console. The given Mock Test has been designed with a total duration of 120 minutes for the non PwD candidate (40 minutes each for three seconds) based on the pattern followed in the last year. The objective of this Mock Test is not to disclose the exam pattern for CAT 2023 and the actual exam may or may not contain similar type or number of questions. Please note that CAT 2023 will have a total duration of 120 minutes for the non-PwD candidate (40 minutes each for three seconds).
