GMAT

If you are doing graduation degree from recognised university then you are eligible for CAT and other MBA examinations.

CAT score is accepted in a large number of B-Schools in India. Appearing in CAT is a better option in comparison to MAT & GMAT. If you targeting international B-Schools for MBA then you are advised to appear for GMAT. CDS is an excellent career choice.

CAT is accepted only by Indian colleges. If you want to go abroad for higher studies then I suggest that you should take IELTS or TOEFL.

All the best.

Hi Vijay,
Please check with business schools for GMAT waiver, unless you have a very strong profile b-schools won't waive it off. You may also check Executive MBA programs. Check colleges under SPP such as Thompson Rivers University, no GMAT is required by them.

Hi Ashu,
Yes, you can as not every executive MBA program requires GMAT, but they will need an extraordinary profile and extensive work experience. Check University of Sydney's Global Executive MBA. You must research by browsing different university websites for entry requirements.

No, not for full-time MBA.

Hello Prakriti,
As far as I've heard, one can take GMAT as per one's convenience. The CAT notification has been released yesterday, kindly check on their official site. For other exams, there are no notifications as of now especially of SNAP, CMAT and XAT (they are held in Dec-Jan).

Hi,
This is perhaps the best time. Try to take the test by Sept. If you are planning to study abroad then you must submit your applications by Oct/Nov depending on the university or country you are applying to.
