Greetings,
For 2024 admissions, the SIMC Pune MBA cutoff information is yet unknown since the SNAP test hasn't been held yet. The official SNAP cutoff score for the SIMC Pune MBA can vary from year to year, however it often hovers around the 75+ percentile. However, because of the popularity and competitive nature of the program, it's imperative to aim far higher, closer to the 80th percentile or above. Furthermore, SIMC administers an entrance exam for MBA programs that is institute-specific and often has substantially higher cutoffs—often above the 90th percentile. Recall that admittance is not determined only by test results. A strong showing in the written ability test, the group discussions, and the personal interviews is important. For official announcements and the most recent cutoff information as soon as it becomes available, check out SIMC's website.
Thank you.

Every candidate can make three attempts in SNAP exam. The SNAP exam is conducted in three sessions in a gap of one or two weeks. Candidates can mention their number of attempts in the SNAP application form. However, they will have to pay application fee per session. Thus, candidates who are sure of making multiple attempts only then they should apply for multiple sessions as the fee amount is non-refundable.  The scores of best attempt will be taken into consideration for shortlisting of candidates for Group Exercise, Personal Interview and Writing Ability Test.

Ideally candidates must take all three attempts as the difficulty level of the sessions could be different and it may so happen that one session is easy and candidates can score high in that.
