The Common Management Admission Test (CMAT) which is a National Level Entrance Examination for admission to management programmes (MBA and PGDM and similar programmes) in the country AICTE has become immensely popular in the past few years. Till 2018, the Test was conducted by All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE). The National Testing Agency (NTA) has been conducting this test since 2019. The CMAT score is accepted by all AICTE – Approved Institutions / University Departments / Constituent Colleges /Affiliated Colleges.

Meanwhile, Prof. Amit Das, Chairperson MBA Admissions and Area Chair – Data Science & Information Systems at IFMR GSB, Krea University said, “IFMR GSB recognizes CMAT as a major B-school admission test, along with CAT, XAT, NMAT, GRE, and GMAT. Over the years, we have admitted a significant number of students who scored at the 85th percentile or higher, and they have gone on to excel in both academic performance as well as placement outcomes.
This year, as CMAT is scheduled somewhat later than usual (04-May-2023), we want to assure CMAT takers that we will keep our admissions process open to give them a fair shot at applying to IFMR GSB once their results are declared. IFMR GSB has to close the process very soon – in approximately two days – after CMAT 2023 results are announced so that we can go through the applications and shortlist the top candidates for personal interviews. Therefore, we humbly request that all CMAT takers interested in applying to IFMR GSB file their applications beforehand so that only your CMAT score field remains to be updated to apply with payment. We will re-open the forms for updating CMAT scores (and uploading scorecards) as soon as test results are declared. Good luck with your preparations for CMAT, and all the best for the test on 04-May-2023.”
