7,000 left out of the CAT race

MUMBAI: Around 2.3 lakh MBA aspirants will appear for the Common Admission Test (CAT) conducted by the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) in 23 cities across the country on Sunday, but around 7,000 other applicants will be left out of the race as their forms have been rejected.

Applicants last year, who filled in their forms incorrectly or forgot to attach important documents, were given a three-day period to reach one of the six IIMS and rectify their errors. But this time candidates are being only informed (through the CAT website) if their applications have been accepted or rejected. There is no opportunity to correct the forms.

“Though candidates were allowed to come to the IIMs and correct their forms last year, we found the system inequitable; students from the six cities (Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Kolkata, Indore, Lucknow and Kozhikode) that had an IIM found it easier to rush to the institute and correct their forms while those from other cities and towns had to incur a lot of expenditure to travel to the IIMs. So we have discontinued the system,” IIM-Calcutta admissions chairman Ashish Bhattacharya said.

Some students, however, feel that they rather incur costs on travelling to the IIMs to correct their applications than lose a year of studies or the chance to study at an IIM or one of the 111 other institutions that accept CAT scores.

“My form was rejected because the copy of the bank slip that had to be enclosed with the application was not in my name. When I went to Axis Bank to buy the CAT form they said it wasn’t available. So I bought the form from a friend; that’s why the bank slip was not in my name. When I didn’t receive my admit card, I e-mailed IIM Ahmedabad but they didn’t give me any information about the rejection. Finally, I got to know from their website that my form had been rejected. Is it my mistake that the bank counter hadn’t stocked enough forms?” fumed an applicant.

Goa Institute of Management director and former faculty of IIM-Calcutta Ranjan Ghosh said, “There is little chance of making a mistake if the students are careful while submitting their forms. But, at the same time, those who make such errors should to be given a chance to rectify them.”

“It’s unfair that the students have not been given an opportunity to correct their mistakes,” said Jiban Mukhopadhyay, faculty member at S P Jain Institute of Management and Research, Mumbai.
