Interactive CAT planner — set daily hours and weeks remaining, then weight subjects (raise weights for weaker areas). Equal weights = even split across VARC, DILR, QA.
Results update live. Pair with the CAT countdown to set weeks remaining.
| Subject | Share | Hrs / week | Total hrs |
|---|---|---|---|
| VARC | 33% | 14.0 | 168.0 |
| DILR | 33% | 14.0 | 168.0 |
| QA | 33% | 14.0 | 168.0 |
Math: total hours = 6 × 7 × 12 = 504.0; each subject gets weight ÷ Σ weights of that total.

How the CAT Study Timetable Generator works
Each block explains one part of how this works and how to read the result.
How the timetable is built
Total study hours = hours/day × 7 × weeks. Each CAT subject receives a share proportional to its weight.
Default subjects: VARC, DILR, QA. Raise weights for topics you need more time on.
About CAT
CAT is the gateway exam for IIMs and many other MBA programmes. Scores are scaled across morning/afternoon slots; a raw score in one slot is not comparable to another slot’s raw score without that year’s equating.
Frequently asked questions
Is this an official CAT calculator from IIMs (rotating convenor IIM)?
No — it is a free Knwdle helper. Methodology follows published public concepts (educational rank-based percentile) and cites sources on the page. Always trust your official scorecard.
Does this predict CAT ranks or college cutoffs?
No. This page only computes transparent relative-standing maths from numbers you enter — it does not invent college cutoffs.
What is unique about CAT?
CAT is the gateway exam for IIMs and many other MBA programmes. Scores are scaled across morning/afternoon slots; a raw score in one slot is not comparable to another slot’s raw score without that year’s equating.
Why is this labeled an educational approximation?
Educational approximation — CAT scaled-score equating is proprietary to the convenor IIM. Official percentiles appear only on the CAT scorecard.
Is the study timetable official coaching advice?
No — it is a planning template. Adjust hours and subjects to your syllabus and coaching schedule.
