At Global Institute of Business Studies (GIBS Bangalore), entrance exams like:

• Common Admission Test (CAT)

• Management Aptitude Test (MAT)

• Xavier Aptitude Test (XAT)

• Common Management Admission Test (CMAT)

are important… but not everything.

They first check your score or percentile. If it's decent, that's good. You don't always need a super high score. They just want to see that you have basic aptitude.

But that's not the only thing they look at.

They also see:

• Your past marks (10th, 12th, degree)

• How you speak and present yourself in the interview

• Your confidence and attitude

• Any work experience or extra activities

So basically, even if your entrance score is average, you still have a good chance if you perform well in the interview and show positive energy.

In simple words — GIBS looks at your overall personality, not just your exam marks.
