Most of the good B-schools accepting MAT 2016 scores would commence MBA/PGDM 2016-18 batch in the month of June/July 2016.

The decision taken by the B-school in this case would be treated as final.

AIMA’s list of B-schools accepting MAT 2016 May exam scores consists of 330 B-schools spread across different regions of India. But it is also possible that many of these B-schools, despite accepting MAT scores, might accept scores of MAT exam held in February 2016 or before and may keep the May 2016 scores in abeyance.
