AIMA conducted on line MAT in different time slots of 150 minutes each on May 10, 2014 across the country. Since there were a few thousands who took the test, it is unlikely that any further date would be announced for the on line test . AIMA has already stated ‘If the number of candidates registered for Computer Based Test is limited and can be accommodated in a single day; the test will be completed on 10 May 2014 itself.’

Management Aptitude Test (MAT) in paper pencil mode was conducted on May 4, 2014 across the country. Mat is taken by an approximate number of 20 thousand candidates. Test pattern in Online test remained more or less at the same difficulty level as shared by MBAUniverse.com in its MAT May 2014 series.

Candidates were already given the option of either to appear in paper pencil mode or Online test. No candidate therefore could appear in the Online test, if he/she already appeared in paper pencil mode.

The computer based test was held in different time slots throughout the day. The computer based test was conducted at different venues than the ones where paper pencil mode test was conducted.
