Hello! It simply depends upon which B-school you want to get admission into. Those aiming the IIMs must give CAT XLRI accepts only XAT IIFT score is accepted by both the IIFT campuses (New Delhi & Kolkata), and CMAT is accepted by JBIMS, Sydenham, GIM, etc. Preferably it is advised to give 2-3 exams since their difficulty level never remains same and one also has a backup in case he/she falters in one exam. https://www.shiksha.com/mba/articles/20-mba-entrance-exams-you-can-take-this-year-blogId-11473 Kindly visit the given link, it would provide you with more insights. -
I would suggest all of them. CAT is mainly for IIMs, and all others are for different other colleges including government. But CAT, MAT and CMAT scores have tremendous value and these exams will only be able to get you a good B-school. -
It depends on the college you want to go for. CAT, MAT and CMAT are national level exams which can help you getting a good ranked B-school while XLRI and IIFT exams are conducted by the private universities which will deduce the minimum number of B-schools you can apply in.
