CAT vs GMAT for Working Professionals????
I am a working professional in IT sector from last 2 yrs.... & I am trying 2 decide between CAT & GMAT...From my last 1 week research... here is some of the points:-
-
Syllabus : CAT has tough Quants and DILR where GMAT feels more fixed & more focused on logic & English
-
Time: CAT needs more tym & heavy prep where GMAT can be easier 2 plan with a job cauz its format is more stable
-
Scoring: CAT is more about %ile & competition where GMAT is more about ur own score & test is computer-based & adaptive
-
Prep style: CAT needs strong practice in speed & tricky qns where GMAT needs strong basics, smart reasoning & accuracy
For a working person....I feel GMAT may be a little easier 2 manage.... but CAT is still better if ur goal is top IIMs & Indian B-schools
Now.... what do u think.... which is better for a working professional in 2026?????
