The BITS Pilani, Dubai is competitive to some extent but getting into Dubai campus is not as hard as India based campuses.  

  • The university does not require BITSAT or JEE as the admissions are entirely based on grade 12 qualifications.  

  • There are no competitive exams for admissions, rather the admissions are merit-based (Board exams). 

  • If a candidate is not able to get his/her first programme preference due to non-availability of seats in the first preference, his/her second and subsequent preference is considered, and an offer is made.

Yes, BITS Pilani's Department of Management accepts GMAT scores for its MBA program, along with CAT and XAT. While the Business Analytics Aptitude Test (BAAT) is a primary entrance exam for the program, BITS Pilani also considers GMAT (as well as CAT/XAT) scores as part of the overall application evaluation.  

In addition to the BAAT and test scores, the selection process also includes a personal interview and considers factors like academic record and work experience. 

Therefore, if you have a GMAT score, you can certainly include it in your application for the BITS Pilani MBA program.
