IIMs rule out CAT re-exam

The IIMs have ruled out reexam of Common Admission Test, saying they will come out with a non-discriminatory solution to tackle the three errors in the CAT 2006 paper.

Some IIM aspirants have written to the Chief Justice of India seeking retest as the CAT paper had three errors — maximum of two errors per version.

IIM-Calcutta admission chairperson Ashisk K Battacharya said: There is no need for re-exam, because the number of errors is too less. Out of the 75 questions, only 2 (per version) were wrong. A re-exam would also cause hardship to lakhs of students. By next week, we will come out with a solution which will be non-discriminatory.
