During the preliminary screening (First Round), candidates have to clear the Quantitative Ability (QA), ‘Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning’ (DILR) and ‘Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension’ (VARC) sections. For that, candidates will have to meet the minimum cutoff for each. Since the cutoff is yet to be declared, the expected cutoff has been provided for CAT 2024 IIM Ahmedabad shortlisting based on the previous year’s trend in the following table:

Category PVARC PDILR PQA Overall Percentile Rank (PT)
General/EWS 70 70 70 80
NC-OBC/Transgender 65 65 65 75
SC 60 60 60 70
ST 50 50 50 60
PwD (in General/ EWS/ NC-OBC/ Transgender/ SC) 60 60 60 70
PwD (in ST) 50 50 50 60

Throughout the entire selection process, the candidate will be given an ‘Application Rating’ (AR) which will be calculated based on the Class 10 marks, Class 12, graduation marks percentage, and work experience (as of July 31, 2024). The better the rating of the candidate, the higher will be his/her chance of getting shortlisted for AWT & PI.

CS (Composite Score) = ARF_CS * Normalised AR score + CATF_CS * Normalised overall score in CAT-2024

Application Rating Multiplication Factor for Composite Score (ARF_CS) = 0.35;

CAT Multiplication Factor for Composite Score (CATF_CS) = 0.65

CAT 2024 IIM Ahmedabad Shortlisting (Stage II): Candidate Selection Basis Composite Score

Normalised AR Score

Personal Interview Multiplication Factor (PIF) = 0.50

AWT Multiplication Factor (AWTF) = 0.10

CAT Score Multiplication Factor for Final Composite Score (CATF_FCS) = 0.25
