Hello,

The minimum eligibility to join for MBA in India is an undergraduate degree with 50% marks from any recognized university and candidate should have secure good percentile in CAT, MAT, CMAT and XAT or admission seeking institutes entrance test( LPUNEST, SRMJEEM). So as considering your mark, you won't be able to join for MBA, if you can improve the marks more than 50% then you will be eligible.

Hope this information will help you. Best wishes.

Good Luck!

Hello Sonal ,

The eligibility criteria for the MBA entrances is minimum 50% marks. If you are from a reserved category , you will get a relaxation of 5 % and will be eligible at 45% as well.  So , if you are from a reserved category , you will be able to get a good college with good MAT score.

llo Shubham,
Unfortunately you can't give MBA related CAT,NMAT, SNAP exams because most of the exams usually have 50% as their eligibility criteria and for category its 45% ( Most of) .
I would suggest you that if you are passionate to get a good college to pursue your higher studies, try to give re-exam of your last sem and score more so that your average boosts up above 50%.


Remember, Where there is a will ; there is a way !

MAT Exam did not require minm educational qualifications.

( Best colleges through MAT are XIME-B, WESCHOOL-M, IFIM, SIES, BIMTECH -RM )

Keep Learning , Keep Growing
Hope your doubts are cleared.


All the best for your future.

But the top b schools or any b school which acceps mat score and has the eligibility criteria of 50% will first check  if have scored 50% or not and then proceed with my mat marks and if I have good mat score but less than 50% in graduation then I won't be eligible to get an admission right?

Hello,

Based on your graduation score you have a bit low chances of getting admission in to MBA colleges of India as your score is very low in graduatio.However,you can still try.

Good luck.
