Hello,


Yes, many MBA programs require applicants to take an aptitude test as part of the admissions process. The most commonly used aptitude tests for MBA admissions are the GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) and the GRE (Graduate Record Examination). These tests assess skills in areas such as quantitative reasoning, verbal reasoning, analytical writing, and critical thinking, which are important for success in MBA programs. Some business schools may also accept other aptitude tests or may have their own specific entrance exams.


Hope this helps,

Thank you

Hello aspirant,

Quantitative aptitude (QA), LR-DI (Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation), VA-RC (Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension), DM (Decision Making), and General Awareness are the five key components of entrance exams for Bschools.
Quantitative ability is typically tested on management entrance exams; this is a common section of tests like the CAT, XAT, NMAT, and IIFT, among others. In addition, candidates for management positions are evaluated on their verbal skills, general knowledge, logical reasoning, and data interpretation.

Thank you

Hope it helps you.
