Hi

No you cannot give CAT entrance examination right after your class 12th.

This is because,

To be eligible for CAT entrance examination one needs to be at least a graduate, as through CAT examination, admission in MBA is provided which is a postgraduate degree.

So, in order to be eligible for CAT ,after your class 12th you need to do graduation in any discipline.

For your reference ,

CAT eligibility criteria is provided below

To be eligible for CAT ,

• you need a  Bachelor's/graduation degree in any discipline from a recognised university .

• you must have got  at least 50 per cent marks or equivalent CGPA in your graduation . SC/ST/PH students need only at least 45 percentage in Bachelor’s Degree in any discipline to be eligible .

• Candidates who are in the final year of their graduation are also eligible for CAT examination.

• There is no age restriction to be  eligible

• It is not mandatory to have work experience to be eligible
