Dear Aspirant

Both CMAT ( Common management admission test) and MAT ( Management admission test) is conducted for offering admission in management and allied courses.

CMAT is conducted by AICTE to provide admission in MBA colleges approved by AICTE. Conducted once every year

MAT is conducted by AIMA. It is a standardized test to facilitate business schools to screen the students. It is conducted four times a year in January, May, September and December.

All the best

Hello,

Management aptitude test (MAT) exam is organised by All India management association while Common management Aptitude Test (CMAT) is conducted by National Test Agency, MAT exam conducts four times in a year while CMAT exam conducts once In a year, the factor that makes the major difference between both the exams is that the MAT exam is accepted by 600+ MBA colleges in India while CMAT exam is accepted by more than 1000 Business schools in India, so comparatively CMAT  is exam more renowned then MAT exam, and is accepted by more colleges.


Hope this helps, all the best.
