Recently Institute has declaired C.A degree as equivalent to Post graduation, so in my opinion u can do MBA after C.A wihtout doing graduation but for that u have to score 55% in C.A to appear in entrance exam of CAT. U can refer admission prospectus of ICAI.

rather than admission prospectus of ICAI, it wud be better to refer to the CAT Bulletin. to check IF at all IIMs recognise CA as equilavent to grads.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CANDIDATES

This box provides information about frequently asked questions and queries about submission of CAT 2007 application forms. It also spells out the processes followed by IIMs up to Common Admission Test (CAT) and issue of CAT score card. It is therefore, important for the candidates to read this box carefully.

1. CAT Application Forms are sold or sent (along with Bulletins) only to the candidates, who are interested in appearing for CAT 2007 and are applying to one of the programmes of IIMs. The CAT Application Form sold or sent to one person cannot be used by someone else for applying to IIMs. CAT Application Forms and Bulletins, once sold, would not be bought back by the banks or by the IIMs. The CAT Bulletin can also be perused or downloaded from the CAT website (www.catiim.in).
2. CAT Bulletin has considerable information on how to fill up the form. Please read the bulletin carefully before filling-in the form. The candidates should ensure that they meet the eligibility criteria of the programme(s), which they have applied for, that the form is complete in all respects and that they have read the checklist in the CAT Bulletin before forwarding the application to the concerned IIM.
3. If a candidate is eligible based on his/her performance in a professional examination (e.g. CA, ICWA), which is considered equivalent to graduation, he/she should indicate in the CAT Application Form marks obtained in that examination as marks obtained in graduation.
4. The candidate may note that his/her application would be summarily rejected if the application is incomplete in any respect, specifically if documents supporting qualifications and caste are not provided, any mandatory field is left blank, the form is not signed, photograph is not attached or the candidate fails to meet the eligibility criteria. No corrections will be permitted after submission of the application form. However, in case a candidate identifies any mistake in the submitted form, he/she may buy and submit a fresh form duly filled-in by September 8, 2007.
5. A candidate can check the information related to the admission process from CAT website (www.catiim.in) at different stages – (a) whether the application form has been received, (b) Allotted test registration number and the CAT venue where a candidate will appear for CAT 2007. A candidate can also check the CAT website (www.catiim.in) for information related to (c) whether the application form has been accepted/rejected (d) CAT 2007 scores, (e) whether the candidate has been short listed for Group Discussions and Personal Interview of different IIMs, and (f) whether the candidate has been offered admission by different IIMs.
6. While CAT Bulletin and the CAT website would provide most of the information, a candidate may still have queries about filling the application form. In case a candidate needs further assistance, he/she can call up the concerned IIM. An interactive voice response system (IVRS) would help in resolving the queries. The telephone numbers given in this advertisement would allow the candidate to access this system. Please note that the IVRS provides answers to common queries related to admission process and IIMs are not responsible for any misunderstanding created by the IVRS in the mind of any candidate. IIMs, however, own up the responsibility for written responses to queries raised through e-mail/ letters/fax, for which addresses have been provided in this advertisement.
7. In case a candidate has any special query which cannot be addressed to by the IVRS or the CAT Bulletin, the candidate can write to the admission office of the concerned IIM quoting the application number before receipt of admit card and test registration number after receipt of admit card. The candidate must retain a photocopy of filled-in application form and the admit card as long as the candidate remains interested in the admission process of the IIMs.
8. In case the candidate chooses to write to any IIM, he/she may send an e-mail or may use any other mode of written communication. Please note that no IIM official will directly answer queries of the candidates over phone.
9. The candidates belonging to OBC/SC/ST/PWD categories are requested to indicate their status while filling-in their form and enclose supporting document as a proof that they belong to the specified caste/categories. Please note that no change in category would be allowed after the last date of receipt of application form. In the absence of any supporting document or inappropriate supporting document, the candidates having paid full fees for CAT Bulletin would be treated as candidates belonging to general category. The applications from candidates who had only paid half the fee for CAT bulletin but who do not submit any supporting document or who submit inappropriate supporting document, would be rejected.
10. The admit cards of the eligible candidates, whose applications are complete would be sent by October 15, 2007. The candidates who do not receive the admit cards by November 2, 2007 should immediately write to the concerned IIM quoting their application number.
11. On the day of the test, candidates should reach the test venue by 9:45 AM. Please note that no candidate would be allowed to enter the venue after 10:00 AM. Please do not carry any valuable articles such as cell phones, calculators, pens etc., as only admit card, HB pencils and erasers are required for the test and all other articles would have to be left outside the test hall at candidate’s own risk.
12. The application form should be filled up by the candidate himself/herself. Any attempt to impersonate during the test or while filling up the form would not only lead to immediate and automatic disqualification from the admission process of IIMs but may also lead to prosecution. Please note that detection of such malpractice at any stage including after obtaining admission to any IIM would lead to immediate and automatic disqualification or expulsion.
13. The score card details of all the valid candidates, appearing in CAT 2007, will be available on the CAT website on 8th January, 2008. Subsequently, it would be dispatched to all the candidates. Adequate care is taken to ensure that there are no mistakes in reading the answer sheet by the machine. There is no provision for revaluation of the answer sheet of any candidate. The candidates should ensure that they have read section 3 of the CAT Bulletin carefully regarding the precautions to be taken while answering the questions.
