As is well known, Common Admission Test (CAT) is the biggest MBA entrance exam, providing admission opportunity to top Indian B-schools including 21 IIMs, FMS Delhi, JbIMS, IIFT, SPJIMR, MDI, IITs, and B-schools. Over the past decade, almost all IIMs and other top MBA colleges accepting CAT scores have increased seats in their flagship program and also launched new programs, and the substantial increase in CAT 2023 registration numbers is a good sign for the growth of management education in India.
