CAT registrations have already started. You can register for the same at the IIM's official website. This time IIM Lucknow is conducting the CAT exam. For GMAT, you can book a test date by registering at www.mba.com. You can choose any date and test center based on your convenience. You take GMAT once a month, five times a year. There is no limit for number of attempts for CAT or GMAT. XAT is for XLRI mainly. XLRI takes GMAT score also. So, if you take GMAT, you need not take XAT. However, if you take both, XLRI will consider best of two. CAT and GMAT cover most of the top institutes both in India and abroad.

Hello! The time required to prepare for an exam like CAT depends entirely upon one's aptitude and clarity of the basic concepts, so there is no specific duration. Having said that, 4-6 months of dedicated preparation is good enough to clear CAT. All the best!

Hello,
To get admission into any good and reputed B-School in India, one has to compulsorily appear for the particular entrance exam(s), clear the necessary cutoffs and the further interview rounds (if shortlisted). There is no other way to obtain admission.
