As of now there is no notification from DTE on the acceptance of ATMA and MAT scores. Last year any MAY exam scores were not accepted. Cutoff for both exams is 99.9X percentile. Your chances are very bleak.
While MAT is held four times a year, in the months of February, May, September & December in both paper pencil as well as computer based mode.Conducted by All India Management Association (AIMA).
ATMA is held four times a year, in the months of February, May, July & December. Conducted by Association of Indian Management Schools (AIMS).
Paper pattern for both exams is different. Difficulty level wise they are also on par.

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.
