Persistence and smart work is the key to success to such exams and nothing else. Keep working hard because now is the time and it is just a matter of 2 months of time you devote.

The secret to crack any of this tests is not that simple. First, apply for the test in your final year, which is allowed. You can analyze your score and judge your weak areas.

The GMAT/GRE foreign publications are ideal for you to make practice.

According to these experts, NMAT is more of a speed-based test rather than a test of knowledge. NMAT exam pattern hasn't changed at all in the last two years. Candidates need to attempt 120 questions in 120 minutes. Each section is timed. Quantitative Aptitude and Data Interpretation has 48 questions (to be attempted in 60 minutes), Verbal Ability section has 32 questions (to be attempted in 22 minutes) and Logical & Analytical Reasoning has 40 questions (to be attempted in 38 minutes).
