FAQ
What is RSAT, and is it really free?
Yes, it is free. RSAT, the Route99 Scholarship Admission Test, is Route99's own scholarship test for its CAT 2027 courses, and there is no obligation to enrol after taking it. Your rank among that month's takers sets your scholarship, from a flat ₹7,500 up to 100% off the classroom or live online fee.
How much scholarship can I get in RSAT?
It depends on your rank among everyone who takes RSAT that month. The top 1% get 100% off, the top 5% get 80%, the top 15% get 75% and the top 20% get 50%. Everyone else who appears gets a flat ₹7,500. On the classroom fee of ₹86,000, a top-20% rank takes 50% off.
What is the RSAT exam pattern and syllabus?
RSAT format: 45 questions, 3 marks each, 1.5 hours. It uses the same marking scheme as CAT, with negative marking, so careful attempts score better than guesses. The questions are CAT-style aptitude questions, and the admissions team shares the section details when you register.
When and where can I take RSAT?
Take it any time between 10 AM and 10 PM, at our Ahmedabad centre or online from home. Register first, then pick a time that suits you; your result and scholarship arrive within 24 hours. Anyone preparing for CAT can take RSAT, one attempt a month.
Which Route99 courses does the scholarship apply to?
RSAT scholarships apply to the CAT 2027 classroom course (₹86,000) and the CAT 2027 live online course (₹43,000). They do not apply to the self-paced course. RSAT for IPMAT runs separately. The award comes off your course fee when you enrol while it is valid (7 days from the day it is granted).
Can I combine RSAT with the girl child or need-based scholarship?
No. Each student gets one scholarship, and scholarships cannot be combined. If you qualify for more than one, such as an RSAT slab and the single girl child scholarship, choose the one that saves you more, and the admissions team applies that award to your course fee.
How long is my RSAT scholarship valid, and can I retake the test?
Your award is valid for 7 days from the day it is granted, so enrol within that window to use it. RSAT allows one attempt a month. If your award lapses or you want a better rank, take the next month's test, and your scholarship is set by that month's rank.
What documents do I need for the girl child, need-based or repeater scholarship?
Single girl child: a ration card or family affidavit. Need-based: an income certificate (ITR, income, EWS or NC certificate). Repeater: a CAT or XAT scorecard from the last 3 years, which is required. RSAT needs no documents. Upload them in the registration form after you choose the scholarship.
