50 CAT exam centres closed today


New Delhi, Nov 29 (PTI) The computer-based Common Admission Test in around 50 centres across the country were today rescheduled to allow necessary repairs to be completed at the labs where technical glitches disrupted the exams on the first day.

Prometric, the American firm which has been entrusted with the task of conducting the tests, said while a significant majority of the candidates successfully completed their exams yesterday, various technical issues arose at selected computers in approximately 50 labs that prevented approximately 2,000 exams from being delivered.

"Prometric technicians have been dispatched to address these isolated problems. To avoid candidate inconvenience and to allow for the necessary repairs to be completed at the impacted labs, Prometric has scheduled a closure of these labs today," an announcement on the CAT-IIM official website said.
