MAT

Cut-off in MAT is over 500 (comprehensive score).
Very successful placement records.

Only CAT and GMAT is accepted. I would suggest you to attempt GMAT. It can be taken any time of the year. Plus the fee difference between NITK is so huge that spending an additional 12,000 INR for GMAT to get in NITK should not be a problem.
All the best.

Hello Shravani,

Good luck for exam and your efforts.

You can get XIME Bangalore. They have 75 percenttile cut-off in MAT and XIME is the best college through MAT.

Hi,
If you could state the purpose of taking these tests, it would be easy to guide you because SAT, TOEFL and IELTS are international standardised tests mainly use for the admissions abroad. Whereas, MAT is a national management entrance exam. For the preparation of SAT exam, visit khanacademy.org and the official site for registration is collegeboard.org.
For TOEFL and IELTS, just search on Amazon or Google and you will get e-books to download. I would suggest, you should take a mock test, first and then see which one is easier for you.
All the best.
