The answer key for the standard aptitude test (CAT) 2019 has remained unchanged after examining the objections raised against the questions. IIM Kozhikode conducted the computer-based CAT in two sessions on November 24, 2019.
IIM Kozhikode issued a notification on December 12 in which it has stated that the experts reviewed the objections that were raised against the CAT 2019 answer key, and there has been no change in CAT 2019 answer key. Authorities opened the objection window to challenge the CAT response sheet on December 4.
Candidates could test the responses till December 6 (5:00 pm). For every objection, the charge candidates had to pay was Rs. 1200. If any complaint is found correct, then the necessary changes would be made by CAT authorities.
However, even before the release of the official answer key, candidates could check the answer key provided by the various coaching institutes that will help them get an idea about their probable score. IIM Kozhikode released the official answer key and response sheet of CAT 2019 on November 29.
Candidates can download their response sheets to questions that were asked for both the slots on the website iimcat.ac.in. All the correct responses to the questions asked in the entrance examination are made available through the CAT 2019 answer key.
Candidates could access the CAT answer key 2019 in online mode after logging into their account using credentials. The correct responses are marked in green and the wrong ones are marked red.
“The objections received against questions in CAT 2019 were carefully examined by the expert panels. The answer key remains unchanged after careful examination of the various objections that had been received and examined by the expert panels,” an official notice reads.
