Answer
No, candidates cannot switch between sections during the CAT 2026. Each section has a strict 40-minute time limit, and candidates must complete questions in the order: VARC to DILR to QA. Once a section's 40 minutes are over, candidates cannot return to it. This sectional time-lock has been a fixed feature of CAT pattern since 2020.
