W
ith the start of another
MBA admission and
entrance exam season,
you must be gearing up
to see themselves in the orientation
ceremony in one of the top MBA colleges in India. Though CAT or Common
Admission Test is the most popular exam
among the aspirants, there are several other national and state level MBA
entrance exams that you must take to
broaden your chance of MBA admission.
Each year nearly 2-3 lakh aspirants
appear in these exams, which are the
first step towards securing that coveted
seat at an IIM or in XLRI. Though the total
number of aspirants is on the wane, the
competition for the top tier schools is just
not going down.
