CAT 2016 result expected to be declared in the second week of January 2017 is yet to get the exact date. While IIM Bangalore has not announced the date of CAT 2016 result declaration, candidates who appeared in the exam are still contemplating and guessing whether the CAT 2016 result would be declared in the beginning of 2nd week of January or it would be stretched to the weekend.
The dilemma on CAT 2016 result declaration has created a sense of anxiety among the IIM aspirants who anticipate good CAT score. Even the Convener of CAT 2016 Prof Rajendra K Bandi, faculty IIM Bangalore, is not aware about the exact date of CAT 2016 result as the CAT result date in the press release from IIM Bangalore shares “Release of Results: Second week of January 2017 (Tentative)”
Earlier CAT exams used to announce well in advance the exact date of result declaration and the CAT result used to be declared in the wee hours on the designated date. This feature goes missing since TCS has taken over as testing agency for CAT exam. Last year also, declaration of CAT result was suddenly announced on January 8, 2016. CAT 2016 test takers are worried lest the same phenomenon is repeated this year also.
CAT 2016 Result: Anticipate in beginning of 2nd week
CAT 2016 advertisement issued by IIM Bangalore mentions “The CAT results are likely to be declared by 2nd week of January, 2017’. It implies that the result should be declared in the start of Second week of January 2017 instead of in the middle or end of the week. But until and unless the exact date of the result declaration is announced, it may not be possible to know the same and the anxiety on probable delay in CAT 2016 result declaration will continue to persist among the IIM aspirants.
A week left in December
Less than 2 weeks remain to the second week of January 2017 and only 6 days are left for December 2016 to end but there is no announcement by IIM Bangalore about the exact date of CAT 2016 result declaration.
CAT 2016 test takers have been ringing MBAUniverse.com to know the latest updates on declaration of CAT 2016 results and their score cards but the response from the CAT Centre 2016 has not been received in regard to exact date of CAT 2015 exam result declaration date.
CAT 2016 result delay, possible
The queries of the CAT 2016 test takers regarding the anticipated delay in declaration of CAT 2016 are not without substance. In fact some of the activities promised to be conducted on certain dates by CAT Centre 2016 were extended, delayed or postponed causing anxiety among the CAT 2016 test takers. On the similar lines candidates are worried that the CAT 2016 results might be delayed going by the past activity conducting pattern of CAT Centre 2016.
Better for IIMB to announce the result date
There is no point to conceal the information regarding the CAT 2016 result date announcement. On the contrary timely announcement of the CAT 2016 result declaration date will not only save the CAT Centre 2016 from receiving uncalled for queries but the CAT 2016 takers would also get relaxed and wouldn’t pursue the matter on one or other forum.
