Test-taking is a critical skill for any CAT aspirant, and IMS SimCATs are specifically designed to simulate the authentic CAT exam experience. These tests provide a comprehensive simulation of the real exam, helping you sharpen your test-taking abilities under realistic conditions.


IMS majorly offers two types of SimCATs-


Take-Home SimCATs: Flexible practice that allows you to test your knowledge at your convenience.

Proctored SimCATs: Simulate the actual exam environment within a window period, giving you a competitive edge with real-time analytics and All India Rankings.


Here’s why taking SimCATs is crucial for your preparation:


  • SimCATs cover all sections that appear in CAT—VARC, DILR, and QA—with timed sections just like the actual exam, which helps you improve your speed and accuracy.

  • When you take a Proctored SimCAT, you will compete with thousands of aspirants nationwide and receive an All India Rank, giving you a clear picture of where you stand among your peers.

  • With each test, you’ll identify your strengths and areas for improvement, allowing you to focus on enhancing your performance and boosting your overall score.

  • Taking these tests regularly will refine your strategy, improve your time management, and build confidence as you head towards the CAT exam.
