| Server that failed CAT | | |
NEW DELHI, NOV 28: On a day when the Common Admission Test went online for the first time, computer servers crashed at several places across the country leading to the cancellation of examinations at these centres.
According to reports, computer servers crashed at several examination centres at Mumbai, Kolkata, Pune, Bangalore, Bhopal, Lucknow, Chennai and Kharar near Chandigarh.
Hundreds of students are reported to have been affected by the technical failure. The affected students have been given new time slots to appear for the exams. The online CAT kicked off today only with over 2.4 lakh students registering for the entrance for admission into IIMs.
The IIMs for the first time have entrusted the task of conducting the online CAT to Prometric, an American firm, which is organising the computer-based test over a period of 10 days. The test is being conducted at 105 centres in 32 cities across the country. Students can appear in the test at these centres during the 10-day window period.
