    The IIMS only consider CAT EXAM. You need to qualify it and look up for your percentile. After that, you will get call from the various IIMS. Select according to your liking.

    Yes, CAT is mandatory to get admission in IIM. Without CAT exam, it is not possible to get admission IIM. No, IIMs do not accept CMAT score.

    Hi dear,
    For full time 2 years MBA in IIM, you need CAT, but there is another way to be part of IIM. Few reputed or MNC companies want their employs to do MBA. So, they will offer you to do MBA in IIM or any other top institute for 1 year programme only in specific field as the company required field. So, this is another way to get in to IIM. For this process, you need to be very important person for that company.

    You must have given CAT and scored more than 95 percentile to get into IIMs. CMAT, XAT and MAT cannot get you into IIMs.

    Iims accept only CAT scores. There are numerous schools which accept CAT and CMAT scores.
