Made 2 mistakes in CAT application form.. Need a serious Help!

Asked by Aastha Sharma on 2026-08-25 in CAT Prep

Hi shweta! mam can you pls help me.. actually i made 2 mistakes in form that in my semesters marksheet only credit points are mentioned and mujhe pta nahi tha toh i filled total credit pts. and obtained credit pts. instead of total marks and all. and 2nd is that i had uploaded my class 12th percentage calculated using best five subjects, but marks of all subjects are required? What should i do now? and also i contacted CAT help desk they said to refill the complete new application form it is only the safest option.. but i am worried.. will filling the form again cause any duplication problem? Mam please help me.. Need a serious help.

Don’t panic. Since the CAT helpdesk has specifically advised you to submit a fresh application, I would follow that advice rather than trying to fix the old form.

For the new form, enter your semester details exactly as they appear on your marksheets, and calculate your Class 12 percentage according to the CAT instructions.

Filling a fresh application as instructed by the official helpdesk should not create a duplication issue; the important thing is that you use the latest/correct application. Older CAT guidance has also used re-registration as the solution for errors affecting selection-related details.
