Hello Aspirant,

Hope you are doing well.

MAT is normally conducted four times a year, in February, May, September, and December, with the first session taking place in February. The MAT exam is administered four times a year, in February, May, September, and December.

This makes it much easy for students who are preparing for any tests to avoid wasting their time for another year if they do not receive a scholarship. The MAT provides them with an opportunity not only to earn higher grades, but also to do so in the same year.

MAT candidates must have completed their bachelor's degree in any discipline from a recognised university, or an equivalent degree recognised by the test organisation. Students in their final year of any undergraduate programme (e.g., B.A., B.Sc., B.Com., B.Tech., etc.) are eligible to appear provisionally. A minimum percentage requirement for graduation is usually set by the MI or the university, and this percentage requirement varies from one MI or university to another. For further information, consult the prospectus of the specific MIs/University.

Candidates who wish to take the Computer Based Test (CBT) would have to pay a fee of Rs. 1650/-.
B. The candidate can choose to take the Paper Based Test (PBT) by paying a fee of Rs. 1650/- for this option.
C. Candidates who wish to take a Remote Proctored Internet Based Test (IBT) can do so by paying a fee of Rs. 1650/-.

Note: Candidates who choose to take both exams, i.e. PBT and CBT, would have to pay an additional fee of Rs. 1100/- in addition to the Rs. 1650/-. When selecting both PBT and CBT, Double IBT, and/or a combination of PBT and IBT, candidates will have the option of selecting an additional 2 Management Institutions for sending their scores in addition to the existing option of selecting 5 Management Institutions, resulting in a total of 7 Management Institutions being available to them.
