Can you suggest the best colleges for MBA marketing? I scored 185 in CMAT and 150 in NMAT.

Cutoffs, including any sectional criteria, can change from year to year based on applicant volume, seats and the college's policy. Always rely on the latest admission cycle's official information.

A retake can help if your target colleges clearly apply sectional minimums and you have attempts remaining. Confirm the retake rules and which score the college considers before deciding.

For colleges that use only the total score, a strong section can makup for a weaker one. For colleges that apply a sectional minimum cutoff, a high score elsewhere may not compensate.

There is no mandatory minimum score for qualifying for admissions via NMAT. Some colleges may expect minimum scores in specific sections.

No, GMAC reports section-wise and total scores but does not set a sectional cutoff. Any minimum section score is decided by the individual participating colleges.
