Nowhere it says that you must complete graduation with Honors to apply for the Master of Business Administration. This is not required at all. What you need is graduation degree which is valid.

Therefore if you have completed graduation, then you are eligible for Master of Business Administration. You can appear for the entrance exams to get yourself admission in some good MBA college.

The entrance exam which you may apply for will depend on your marks in graduation. Besides your preference also matters. If you have interest in any particular university then only appear for the entrance exam which offers admission in that particular university/college.

There are several entrance exams for MBA to pick from:-

CAT

MAT

GMAT

JMET

XAT

SNAP

IIFT

TANCET

RMAT

KMAT


Obviously if you have no special preference then Common Admission Test is the pefect entrance exam for you. It is conducted by the Indian Institutes of Management (IIM) every year.

The CAT score is accepted by wide range of good colleges both government and private across the country. Therefore I will highly recommend you to appear for the Common Admission Test.


CAT Eligibility

1. Candidate should have completed graduation.

2. With at least 50 percent marks.

3. SC/ST should be able to score 45 percent marks.

4. There is no relaxation for OBC.


If you completed graduation with less than required marks for Common Admission Test then there are other options to consider. You can go for Management Aptitude Test which does not have marks criteria. XAT and KMAT are also good options.

There is no hard and fast rule that you have to have honours subject at graduation level to be considered eligible for pursuing MBA degree. On the contrary the eligibility criteria is quite simple and uncomplicated. It just demands of a graduate degree in any discipline of your choice from a recognized university. So the subject you choose is of little relevance here.

So if you have already completed graduation then you are eligible to pursue MBA. The course's duration is two years and to get a top B-School you can sit for the popular MBA Entrance Exams which gives the MBA aspirant a chance to choose the top colleges offering this course.

Here is a list of the top MBA Entrance Exams you can apply for :-

• CAT: Common Admission Test
• MICAT: Mudra Institute of Communication Admission Test
• CMAT: Common Management Admission Test
• ATMA: AIMS Test for Management Admissions
• TISS NET: TATA Institute of Social Sciences National Entrance Test
• XAT: Xavier Aptitude Test
• NMAT: NMIMS Management Aptitude Test
• IBSAT: ICFAI Business Studies Aptitude Test
• SNAP: Symbiosis National Aptitude Test
• MAT: Management Aptitude Test
• IIFT: Indian Institute of Foreign Trade
• IRMA: Institute Of Rural Management Anand

Of all the entrance exams mentioned above, CAT is the most popular of all and easily one of the toughest exams to crack as well. If you have secured 50% of marks or above at graduation level then you can apply for this examination. The final year candidates can also apply for this exam.

If you dont have the marks stated above then you can apply for the MAT exam since for this one the pass marks is more than enough. MAT is also a national level entrance test like CAT and this exam too can be given by the final year candidates.

Hope this helps :-> :->
