The changes in system and procedure to take CAT 2014 are rated friendly enough as they allow you to use number of answering options using navigation tools. For the first time CAT 2014 has provided the single click button which enables you to view the entire test paper in one go without visiting the questions one by one.

CAT 2014 has also provided the facility to know the status of the question viewing the Question Palette displayed on the right side of screen. The 4 colour symbols on the bottom side of the screen will indicate the status of the question on the right hand side of question-answer screen  in different colours. Green will indicate the Answered question; Red will show the Unanswered question; White will remind that Question is not viewed and Violet will show that Question is marked for review.
