The season of MBA entrance exams starts with NMAT (held from Oct to Dec), then followed by IIFT, CAT, SNAP, XAT, MAT, CMAT and finally ends with MAH-CET (March). So these exams continue from October till March, with the major exams held in the Dec-Jan period.

Hi Sandesh, Most of the exams take place during the month of November and December. But there are a few exams like MAT and GMAT which are conducted more than once in a year.

IIM Calcutta has only mentioned accepting GMAT score for admission into EMBA courses.

However, CAT is commonly accepted by other similar institutes for both MBA and MBAEx courses. Thus, candidates are advised to ask admission desk for confirmation on this question.

Is a score of 85% in CAT enough to secure MBA admission at IIM Calcutta?

Saurabh Khanduri

It is not possible to determine a candidate's admission in IIM Calcutta MBA course through CAT score alone. In Stage 1, a score 85% in CAT will be enough for a general category candidate to be selected for PI+WAT admission stage.

Final admission cutoffs are based on many factors other than CAT score.
