CAT 2020 notification is likely to be released on July 26. It is anticipated by keeping the existing situation in perspective and plans by IIM Indore, the Convening IIM for CAT exam. This may happen because of some significant reasons. This year, the Convener of CAT exam 2020 is Professor Harshal Lowalekar, Faculty for Operations Management and Quantitative Techniques area at IIM Indore.
If the resources are to be believed, there will not be any changes in the schedule for CAT 2020 exam. The exam will be conducted in the last week of November 2020. CAT 2019 was conducted on the last Sunday of November, i.e., on November 24, 2019. Accordingly, no changes are expected this year as well.
The official website of CAT 2020 will be launched in the month of August. The same has been experienced in previous years too. Similarly, no change is expected in the CAT Testing Mode too.
It can be fairly assumed that CAT 2020 notification will not be halted. The entire CAT 2020 schedule will be disturbed if the delay happens.
