Post-CAT processes for top MBA colleges typically include Group Discussions (GD), Written Ability Tests (WAT), and Personal Interviews (PI).

Group Discussion (GD):

The purpose of GD is to test communication, teamwork and assess problem- solving skills.

To prepare for a GD one needs to stay updated on current affairs, practice debating and discussing diverse topics, and develop a clear and concise speaking style.

Written Ability Test (WAT):

The purpose of a WAT is to assess written communication, clarity of thought, and argument structure.

To prepare for a WAT one needs to practice writing essays on current topics, focusing on logic, coherence, and grammar.

Personal Interview (PI):

The purpose of a PI is to evaluate motivation, fit for the program, and personality.

To prepare for a PI one needs to review his/ her academic and professional background, prepare for questions on career goals, current affairs, practice mock interviews and why you want to do an MBA.
