How to prepare for a mock CAT September 28, 2006 15:33 IST Many of you who are preparing for the Common Admission Test on November 19 write a mock CAT every Sunday. These tests are organised by training institutes across the country. CAT trainers Gautam, Rishi and Arindam from Career Launcher offered some advice to aspirants during a recent chat on September 20: "One day before a mock CAT, please revise all important multiple choice questions you have encountered in earlier mocks and Full Length Tests." arun123 asked, hi,im appearing for both CAT and JMET this year.I want to know how many students appear for JMET every year and what should be my rank to get admission into IIT(mumbai,delhi or Kharagpur) Is there any cutoff like CAT for IITs?Gautam answers, JMET does not give the score, it however announces the rank.
