In world, everything seems better when you have more options. I suggest you should have plenty of them at this juncture of your career. So, in order to increase your probability to get admission in top B-School for MBA, you are advised to appear for CAT XAT MAT SNAP NMAT, IIFT CMAT etc. -
Once you prepare for CAT it will be easier for you to clear other MBA entrance examinations. Therefore, in order to increase your probability to get admission in top B-School for MBA, you are advised to appear for CAT, XAT, MAT, SNAP, NMAT, IIFT, CMAT and etc. -
As you are preparing for CAT exam there is no need to go with other exam focus on CAT preparation and you will get a good college. But for a security reason you should fill all entrance exam forms so that you could have option in terms of college selection at the end.
Best of luck. -
Hello!
Choose to give those entrance exams which your choice of college(s) accept; s simple as that! Though it's always better to give 2-3 exams as a backup. -
You can give the numbers of exam you want. It is good that you have already planned for CAT and SNAP but go for other options too. If you have score well in any exam, you have chances for good colleges. I will suggest you to go for others exams too, as you don't have to do separate study for these exams, as pattern for exams are not that different. -

If you make an error in the educational qualifications section of the MAT form, you can typically make amends during the official correction period offered by AIMA. The correction period is open for a short time after the submission of the application. You can log in with your MAT account and edit the form, but not every field is editable, so check before you submit. If the correction period has closed, then you can contact AIMA support, but changes will not be guaranteed. It is always a good idea to save a copy of your original form for your reference.
