1. Sukriti GUPTA: Ohh...wow....If an opportunity given I would want to change the Negative marking system also please provide the CAT 2014 results early may be within a month.


2. Siddhartha Sen:
There were so many technical faults.....why don’t they consider the offline mode like previously....


3. Sneha:
Please follow a standard format...We hate surprises....Don’t surprise us..


4. Shashi Singh:
I would request CAT 2014 Convener to conduct CAT 2014 exam on a single day itself all over the country. No different sets of exam paper and no confusion in markings. I don’t like the pressure of waiting for 15 odd days to give my exam when everyone provides their own feedback of their exam. It’s very hard to concentrate in the last few days of exam.


5. Ashok Kumar:
95,000 candidates scored zero or negative score in CAT 2013 exam. What is this? There were Court cases, legal action, what not. I wish CAT 2014 exam will be error proof, problem free and the best MBA Examination in India.


6. Shobhita Mishra:
Please simplify your CAT exam form. I liked the idea of Online Form submission as it saves a lot of time but the overall form should be made more simple and easy. Also a lot of is wasted before the start of our exam, various levels of checking and signatures, etc can be avoided.


7. Bhavtosh Kumar:
Please go ahead and remove this normalization process. This is really a headache to understand. It might seem easy for IIMs but it’s not for general student as to how their CAT score is generated. The other day, my father asked the same question and I read the entire CAT website explanation. He changed the topic!
No wonder normalization process has gained so much of attention and law suits too.

 

8. Vivek Kumar Singh: There should be no technical glitches, nothing at all. Students get very frustrated because of all these shifting from one test centre to other. Plz I request TCS to take care of it as a priority.


9. Anuj Yadav:
I remember there was some issue with CAT scores being inflated and all in CAT 2012 I guess. I wonder how many brilliant minds would have got affected by it. Hope this year, it would not occur again.


10. Rachna Patel:
I want IIMs to publicly publish the question paper of the CAT 2014 exam along with the right answers. This will clear everyone’s doubts and we will be able to have an idea of where we stand before the results. At least we can save a lot many bucks by not applying to colleges which we might not get due to less or high percentile.


11. Amit Chanchal:
I think CAT is by far the best MBA exams. I have given almost every exam last year but no one is as refined and structured as CAT exam right from registrations to results. High five to IIMs!


12. Aditya Jain:
I want difficulty level to go down. Quantitative section is damn hard. I understand the importance of Mathematics and all in life but we are sitting for MBA exam not a PHD entrance exam for God sake.


13. Dhananjay Mathur:
Transparency must be increased. We should be clearly told about evaluation of CAT exam process, normalization scoring process or disclosure of raw scores. If a CAT aspirant does not know what happens after he has given his exam then it’s of no use.


14. Swati Bhatia:
I wish there should be few questions with options. Like if I have an option between doing probability question or trigonometry. I can do whatever I am good at. This can be done for very difficult types of questions.


15. Ashish Bharadwaj:
  I want IIM and especially TCS to be more technology driven. I want that, once I have registered for CAT exam, I should get daily updates on CAT 2014 exam from IIM. For example, last date of Registration, registration centers, daily exam updates, result update etc in my Email id. I should not have to log in or visit IIM website.

These were some of the interesting suggestions and wishes of our CAT 2014 Exam aspirants for their upcoming CAT 2014 exam.
