NMIMS - NPAT

The NMIMS NPAT exam has a duration of 100-minute. Candidates need to answer 120 MCQs spread across three sections, namely English proficiency, Reasoning ability, and Quantitative & Numerical Ability. There is no sectional time limit, but candidates are not allowed to switch between sections. The English and reasoning questions maintain an easy to moderate difficulty level. However, candidates must be prepared for a challenge in the quantitative section - questions here are known to be tricky and time-consuming. All sections are weighted equally with one mark per question and no penalty for wrong answers.

When closely evaluated, the Quantitative and Numerical Ability is the most difficult and time-taking section in the NPAT exam over the year. However, few questions from the reasoning ability section are foudn to be lengthy as well as time taking but are on an easy to moderate side. The difficulty level across different sections may vary based on the exam session, and can be subjective to candidate's preparation. Therefore, candidates may find other section of the NPAT exam difficult.

The NPAT is a national-level entrance exam conducted for admission into various undergraduate programs offered by SVKMs NMIMS. While many students opt for coaching classes to prepare for this exam, it is certainly possible to crack NPAT without coaching. However, it requires dedicated self-preparation, a deep understanding of the exam pattern, and a good understanding of individual strengths and weaknesses. The difficulty level of the exam depends on the individual's preparation and how well they manage their study time. With the right approach and strategy, anyone can crack NPAT and secure admission into their desired program.

As per the feedback received from the candidates who have qualified in the previous exam sessions, a score between 69 and 71 in NPAT is generally considered a good score for securing admission into SVKM's NMIMS Mumbai campus. However, it is important to note that admission to the institution is subject to various other factors such as the number of seats available, the number of applicants, and the cutoff set by the college. Therefore, even if you score within this range, it is advisable to keep a backup option and apply to other colleges as well.

NPAT counselling follows a three-round process to fill vacant seats. After the entrance exam, a merit list is prepared. Candidates on this list are called for counselling at designated NMIMS centres. If seats remain vacant after a round, a fresh merit list is created, and the process repeats. This continues until all seats are filled. To secure a seat, candidates must attend counselling on time if their name appears on any of the merit lists. Regularly checking the NMIMS website is crucial for staying informed about the counselling process. 

If your NPAT BBA result is waitlisted, it means you're on a waitlist for admission to the programme due to various factors. You can contact the admission office to know more about your position and express your interest in the programme to increase your chances of getting admission. While waiting for your status to be resolved, explore other options and be patient for the admission office to contact you with further information.
