There is no change in the Xavier Aptitude Test exam pattern this year. In fact, unlike other Master of Business Administration entrance exams, Xavier School of Management has not made any changes in time duration and exam timing despite the pandemic in the last two years. However, this year the institute has changed the exam timing. Xavier Aptitude Test 2023 will be conducted from 2:00 PM to 5:30 PM.

Although all the sections of the Xavier Aptitude Test are moderate to tough in terms of difficulty level, the Decision Making section often poses challenges as the questions are based on business decision and ethical dilemma, which needs to be answered with deep logic and deliberation. However, the Quantitative Ability and Data Interpretation section can also turn out to be tough and lengthy. For more information, visit the Shiksha Xavier Aptitude Test exam page.
