MAT vs CAT: When it comes to MBA entrance tests in India, CAT and MAT will feature at the top of the conversation. CAT score has a premium value and is accepted by 21 IIMs & 1000+ reputed B-schools across the country. On the other hand, MAT is accepted by over 700 management institutes. Some of the top b-schools accepting MAT are GL Bajaj Institute of Management & Research, Dr. D.Y. Patil B School-Pune, ITM University, Christ University, JIMS Rohini, Amity University, OP Jindal Global University, Jain University, etc.

The MBA Colleges for Low Percentile/ Score in CMAT 2024 are Indira School of Business Studies (ISBS), Asia Pacific Institute of Management, Dehradun Institute of Technology, ITS Institute of Management, Prestige Institute of Management, and Galgotias Business School, among others. These colleges accept CMAT scores in the range of 40 to 60 percentile. A score ranging from 281 to 340 can be considered a good score in CMAT. As per the CMAT result, a low score in CMAT lies in the range of 116 to 140.

The CMAT exam is taken by thousands of students every year who wish to seek admission to some of the best MBA colleges in India. Due to the boom in the number of MBA/PGDM aspirants in recent years, the number of people appearing for the CMAT exam has also increased. However, it is quite tough to achieve a high percentile score in CMAT and meet the cutoff requirements for top colleges like JBIMS, SIMSREE, Great Lakes, KJ Somaiya, and many others which set their final cutoffs above the 99 percentile. That being said, aspirants can always seek admission with their existing scores/percentile at colleges that have a low cutoff requirement for MBA courses if they weren't able to meet the cutoff scores for Tier 1 colleges and do not wish to waste another year for CMAT. Given below is the list of MBA colleges for low scores in CMAT 2024.

The top 10 non-IIM colleges that accept CAT scores in India include IIT Delhi, XLRI Jamshedpur, FMS Delhi, IIT Bombay, MDI Gurgaon, JBIMS, SPJIMR, IMT Ghaziabad, IIT Kharagpur, and MICA Ahmedabad. While the IIMs are considered the crème de la crème of management institutes, these colleges are also known for their exceptional teaching staff, infrastructure, practical and industrial training, placement opportunities, and more. The MBA course fees at these colleges range from INR 3.6 lakhs to INR 28 lakhs.

The total seats in IIMs are more than 5500 which are distributed among different categories of students. A total of 809 seats belong to the OBC categories, 538 seats are reserved for SC/ST categories, and the remaining seats are left for EWS and PwD categories. However, securing a seat in one of the 21 IIMs in India is no easy feat. Candidates who aspire to join these institutions need to clear the CAT exam, which is considered to be one of the toughest management entrance exams in the world. After clearing the CAT, candidates have to go through a rigorous selection process that includes GD, WAT, and PI. If you are targeting IIMs this year, get details about the total seats in IIMs, the distribution of seats across IIMs, and other important aspects.
