MBA Entrance Exam

Hi,
Anything between 150-170 will be accepted by XIMB RM. You can try for the admission.

MAT score is very good but graduation percent is very less. Go for some colleges like Adar Sh AIMIT, KGI, CIMS, Prestige, etc.

Wish you a very Happy new year. See the situation is like this, the best B-schools are filled by September to December MAT (max.) then good B-Schools target February. So you'll hardly get a seat in a good B-School after May result. Luck matters but the probability is low.

You will surely get a college and the degree but a stable job profile may be a tough bite for you with this rank. So, try to do better in February MAT to get into Tier-I colleges.

You can apply for SIMSREE.
For reference-
Cut-offs for 2017 were-
MMS
HU (CET) : 99.62
OHU (CET) : 99.82
AI (CET, CMAT, CAT): 99.95
PGDBM
State level (CET) : 99.67
AI (CET, CMAT, CAT): 99.95

Its better to take 1-2 years of job experience before CAT. Prior job experience will help you too get the basics of work culture in the corporate world. There is no as such right time for starting CAT preparation. Earliest you join, better it is. Along with a good coaching institute do join a good test series to get your performance evaluated on regular basis. Dedicate hard work with consistent performance will definitely help you to crack CAT and other MBA entrance exams.

MAT is conducted 4 times in one year.
1 February
2 May
3 September
4 December
