Can I pursue MBA without appearing for GMAT and CAT?

I have 8 years of technical experience in power plants. I have completed my B.Tech in mechanical engineering from IGNOU. I want to do MBA for better post and promotions.

    Hi Pratik,
    Sorry, but I couldn't get if you just don't want to appear for CAT and GMAT or you are not willing to appear for any such entrance exam.
    If it is the first case, then you can go other exams XAT, SNAP, etc.
    And, if you are not willing to give any such exam, then you can filter the college list that are offering management quota admissions.
    But, still, I would suggest you to go for the entrance exams and try to crack good b-school. It would be worth it then.
    Good Luck.

    You can opt for other exams also like CMAT and MAT, which are comparatively easy. You will get good colleges. However, if you don't want to appear in any exams, then also you can get colleges for MBA.

    Yes, you can do. You should also have a minimum of 50%-60% in UG (any stream) for admission in the same. Admission in MBA is done on the basis of entrance exam followed by interview and GD. There are some private colleges which give direct admission.
    The best colleges are:
    Department of Management Studies, IIT Delhi
    Xavier's Labour Relations Institute, Jamshedpur (accepts XAT)
    Lovely Professional University, Punjab (accepts/CAT/MAT/XAT/LPUNEST)
    Indian Institute of Foreign Trade, Delhi (own test)
    Management Development Institute (MDI), Gurgaon
    Bharathidasan Institute of Management (BIM), Trichy
    Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, M

    Yes, you can. You can go for NMAT, IIFT SNAP CMAT MHCET XAT etc. However, a lot of these exams have syllabus similar to CAT. So, I would recommend you to give CAT as well, as more colleges take CAT score than these exams scores.
