Hello Mayur,
NMAT (Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies- Management Aptitude Test) is one of the prestigious management exams of the country, Conducted by the Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS) for students who wish to take admission in NMIMS Mumbai, NMIMS Hyderabad, and NMIMS Bengaluru.
while CAT Is for admission into IITs and IIMs for management studies . NMIMD dies not accept CAT percentile.
It differs from the CAT in many ways.
1)Marking system:
Like CAT, each question in NMAT is of 3 marks. But unlike CAT, it does not have any negative marking. But NMAT also normalizes your scores depending you paper's difficulty level.
The overall cut-off for NMAT has been 209 marks for almost 3 years now. Also it has sectional cut offs for all the three sections.
QA: about75-80marks
LR: about65-70marks
VA: about55-60marks
2)Sectional timings:
There are three sections in NMAT with each one having different weightage as well as different sectional timings. These are:
QA:48questions, time:60minutes
LR:40questions, time:38minutes
VA:32questions, time:22minutes
3)Syllabus:
NMAT tests you on a larger numbers of topics as compared to CAT, especially in verbal and LR sections.
In verbal section, there are FIB(Fill in the blanks) questions, propositions related questions, synonyms, antonyms as well as an analogy, which are generally not asked in CAT.
In LR section, there are questions on Encoding-Decoding, blood relations, machine learning, clocks as well as half of the questions dedicated to all types of critical reasoning.
So if you are not good at any of these areas, then you will have to work harder at them, as it's not possible to clear the cut-offs without preparing them.
Quant section more or less contains the same topics as that in CAT. So that shouldn't be a worry for you
So, basically with such large variety of topics and lesser time per question, NMAT is almost all about speed.
