    Dear student,
    It is not necessary to give CAT, MAT, XAT provided you have qualified LPUNEST. However, if you have already qualified CAT, MAT, XAT then you will be exempted from LPUNEST.
    Good luck.

    No, it's not like that. As you have scored 72%, that is not bad, you will be granted direct entry on the basis of your graduation performance. Qualifying XAT-MAT-CAT is an option for entry in LPU but not the only criteria, you can avail an MBA through your graduation marks also.
    Eligibility criteria: -
    Pass with 50% aggregate marks in Bachelor's degree (any discipline) or equivalent, subject to qualifying LPUNEST and interview or pass with 50% aggregate marks in Bachelor's degree (any discipline) or equivalent subject to valid score in CAT/ MAT/ XAT and interview.

    No it's not compulsory. You can get admission directly through your graduation marks or by LPUNEST.
    As you have scored 72% you can get direct admission through your graduation percentage.
