MAH CET MBA Syllabus 2025: Quantitative Aptitude

The syllabus of MBA CET is same as other management entrance exams. Important topics included in the Quantitative Aptitude section of MAH MBA CET syllabus are as follows:

Since the Quantitative Aptitude section of MAH CET includes Data Interpretation and Data Sufficiency. Candidates need to prepare for these topics too. Out of 50 questions, about 30-32 questions are from Quantitative Aptitude and 18-20 are from Data Interpretation. 

Q:   In which section of MAH MBA CET can I score maximum?
A:

It is tough to say that as there is no set pattern of sectional weightage in MAH CET anymore. Since the last two years, the number of questions for each section of the exam, varies for every slot. Meaning that, if in one slot there are 75 questions on LR and 25 AR, in the second slot there can be 60 questions on LR and 40 questions on AR. Similarly, there could be 50 questions on QA in one slot but in the next slot it could be 40. The total number of questions remain 200 in all the slots but the sectional weightage changes. So, one can really not prepare for the exam with the target of scoring maximum in a particular section. They need to prepare for all sections as any section can have maximum questions and the potential to score maximum.
