  • Even if a test taker has a score of zero, he or she is not banned from taking the CMAT.
  • CMAT provides MBA/PGDM admission opportunities at AICTE-approved management institutes.
  • you would have already taken other major MBA entrance tests such as CAT, IIFT, XAT, NMAT, and SNAP, among others, by the time CMAT is held.
