The first administration of Common Admission Test (CAT), being conducted online for the first time for admission to IIMS today, has been successful, Director IIM-B Pankaj Chandra said.

"The first administration (the first batch of students who appear for the exam) of CAT, being conducted online for the first time has been successful", he told PTI.

"In each centre there are 5-6 rooms where the CAT exam is being conducted. In a few rooms of some centres, there was virus attack on computers. However, students in such centres will be given an alternative for the test- either today or on some other day, and they will be intimated", Chandra said.
