online MBA

No, it is not compulsary to give Xavier Aptitude Test to get admission in a online MBA. Other admission exmas like CAT, MAT, GMAT or the institute entrance exas are accepted. 

This entirely depends on your academic and career goals. An online M.Com can be a comparatively better option than an online MBA degree when you are considering to pursue further education in areas of commerce or finance.  But, if you are aspiring to get into business and management studies that can potentially open up more opportunities for higher paying jobs, consider an online MBA.

Generally, executive MBA online programs require a bachelor's degree and some years of work experience. In most of the selective programmes like those of Coursera/IIT-R, Wharton, and SP Jain, cohorts have 10 to 15 years of work experience and they have bachelor's degrees.     

The Wharton eMBA programme is not entirely online. You will still have to visit campus for brief periods in the two years of pursuing the course. 

For an MBA online, IGNOU is a good option because it is affordable and highly recognized, standing at 1st in the Open University rank by NIRF and A+ grade accredited by NAAC. Andhra University and KLEF possess NIRF and QS rankings, which may reflect superior academic reputation and global recognition. Yet, the flexibility and affordability of IGNOU make it attractive for working professionals. If placement assistance is very important, NMIMS could be a good alternative, but it's not among your options. Think about what matters most to you: price, flexibility, or reputation.
