MAT

The Management Aptitude Test (MAT) operates as a standardized test which multiple Indian business institutions use to determine MBA and PGDM programme admissions. Each institution that takes part in the MAT exam establishes independent cutoff scores that fluctuate every year due to multiple factors including applicant volume and examination difficulty and seat availability conditions.The three business institutions IPE Hyderabad, XIME Bangalore, and PUMBA Pune reserve admission for students who score above the 95+ percentile mark with accompanying marks between 600 to 700. Most private Business-Schools establish minimum cutoff marks between 70 to 80 percentile for admission. A small number of institutions accept candidate scores above 50 and below 70 percentile.
