    All the three are Common Entrance Examination for admission to Business Schools in India and Abroad too. CAT (Common Admission Test) is conducted by IIMS, and is the most reputed exam in the country. It's scores are acceptable by all leading B-Schools including FMS, S. P. Jain, MDI.
    MAT is conducted by AIMA. It is aimed for admission to low profile colleges in India. XAT (Xavier's Aptitude Test) is conducted by XLRI-Jamshedpur and it's scores are acceptable by some leading B-Schools like XLRI-Jamshedpur, XIM-Bhubaneswar, S. P Jain Mumbai, GIM Goa.

    Hi Monika,
    CAT, MAT, and XAT are the national level management entrance exams. You need to qualify any one of these exams to get admission in a good B-school for pursuing MBA. To appear for these entrance exams, you need to have a Bachelor's degree from any of the recognised universities with more than 50 percent marks.

    These are the MBA entrance exams. You can get admission in IIMs after qualifying CAT exam. To get admission in other B-schools, you need to qualify MAT or XAT exam.

    Basically, for getting into a b-school, you have to appear for entrance exams and CAT, MAT and XAT. Based on your score in these exams, you'll get selected for MBA course according to cutoffs of that institute.
