Hi there ,

yes , In order to get admission in MBA programme you need to satisfy the eligibility criteria . Eligibility Criteria for MBA is ;

Pass with 55% aggregate marks in Bachelor’s degree (any discipline) or equivalent, subject to qualifying LPUNEST (https://nest.lpu.in/MBA/) or CAT or MAT or XAT or NMAT or CMAT^ and Interview
Direct admission is not possible in an MBA. The LPUNEST and interview are required to qualify. If you have qualified the CAT, MAT, XAT, NMAT, or CMAT, you are exempted from taking the LPUNEST; in that case, you must also pass the interview.

For more information , you can visit the lpu website

Yes dear , in order to take admission in MBA programme you not only need to qualify entrance exam but interview also . If you want to get exemption from LPUNEST test , then you need to qualify national level tests such as CAT/MAT/XAT/NMAT/CMAT within the slabs that are set by university .

Thank you .
