To give the CAT exam you need to secure at least 50% of marks in aggregate at graduation level. Since you have got 49.9% therefore unfortunately you are not eligible to sit for the CAT exam until and unless you belong to the reserved category. In that case even 45% of marks at graduation level would do.

But dont think there's no other way left to pursue MBA. If you fail to satisfy the above written eligibility criteria then you can easily give various other MBA Entrance Exams where the marks to secure is much less and on securing good marks in those written exams too you can get the opportunity of studying in some of the best B-Schools in our country.

One such exam is the MAT exam, the full form of which is Management Aptitude Test and this exam is conducted by the AIMA. Just like CAT, MAT is also an All India Entrance Test for MBA and it is also very popular like CAT among MBA aspirants.

One of the biggest advantage of this exam is that it is conducted for four times every year in the months of February, May, September and December. There is both paper based test and computer based test to choose from. The exam is not only conducted in multiple exam centres in India but also in Dubai and Singapore.

To sit for the MAT exam you need to be a graduate first and this degree can be attained in any discipline of your choice. The subject you choose at graduation level is of little significance here. Therefore if you get 40% of marks at grad level then that is more than enough.

Students who are in the final year and is about to appear for the final qualifying exam or is waiting for the results to come out can also give this exam. In that case they will be given provisional admission and it should be remembered that there is no age limit as such to appear for this exam which means that you can give this exam whenever you want to.

For the exam questions will come from the following sections:-

1. Language Comprehension
2. Mathematical Skills
3. Data Analysis and Sufficiency
4. Intelligence and Critical Reasoning
5. Indian and Global Environment

Top Colleges Under MAT:-

• International School of Business & Media (ISB&M), Gurgaon
• Amity Business School, NOIDA
• NIILM Centre for Management Studies, Greater Noida
• University of Petroleum and Energy Studies (UPES), Dehradun
• SRM University's School of Management, Delhi-NCR
• Institute of Management Studies (IMS), Ghaziabad
• Skyline Business School, Delhi/NCR
• Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow/ Noida/ Jaipur/ Indore
• Birla Institute of Management Technology, Greater Noida
• Jagan Institute of Management Studies (JIMS), Delhi/NCR
