A pass in graduation or in final year of bachelor's degree is the minimum eligibility criteria to appear in September MAT 2020. MAT 2020 exam will be held from August 27 to September 2, 2020 as Internet Based Test (IBT) which a candidate can take from his home instead of Paper based or computer based exams at test centres.
To appear for MAT exam 2020 in August-September, you must have obtained recognized bachelor’s degree of minimum 3 years duration or equivalent in any discipline. Those studying in their final graduation year may also apply. Besides, there is no age restriction to appear in MAT exam nor does AIMA restrict any candidate to seek MBA admission on the basis of age bar.
As against other national level MBA entrance exams, AIMA has not fixed any minimum percentage of marks in graduation as the eligibility criteria to appear in MAT exam. AIMA has not changed the MAT exam eligibility criteria for the upcoming MAT exam to be held in August-September 2020 and as such the MAT 2020 exam eligibility for September MAT exam remains unchanged. However, you have to check the eligibility for the respective MBA colleges accepting MAT.
Management Aptitude Test (MAT) is one of the most popular National level MBA entrance exams in India. More than 400 MBA colleges offer MBA admission on the basis of MAT exam score. AIMA, the MAT exam conducting body releases the MAT 2020 exam schedule for each MAT exam.
