As per my knowledge, LPU relaxed norms in admission process. For MBA course, recently I got my niece admitted into MBA course at LPU only for upcoming admission session 2020-21 through online admission and reserve her seat. Then only I came across the eligibility criteria of MBA programme, which says one need to pass with 55% marks in graduation and need to appear for an interview, that's it. But I asked my niece to appear for LPUNEST to avail maximum scholarship throughout the degree. So, don't worry if you have not appeared for other national level exams.
