The first 4 papers of CAT are Computer Based Exams (CBE). Although written exams are also available for the first 4 papers but mosts students choose to attempt them through CBE. Paper 5 "Managing People and Systems" will be a written exam which you will have to attempt in December. As i understand from the link below, u will have to clear T1-T4 before 30 September in order to register for T5(written exam) for the December session.

I would however urge you to confirm this info from ACCA office in your city as soon as possible. Do ask them the details about the Extended Registration Deadline. Confirm from them that whether the deadline is 31 August or 30 September?
T1-T4 are generally considered to be easy papers. Most of the people i know have cleared it in their first attempt. The result varies from person to person and the level of effort one has placed.
The following link shows the passing rates of the CAT papers. They are the passing rates of the written exams and not the CBEs.
