What is the cut-off for CAT exam for the year 2016? What is the fees for 2017 for full time MBA in marketing and finance?

Hi.

• CAT (Common Admission Test)
• MAT (Management Aptitude Test)
• CMAT (Common Management Admission Test)
• XAT (Xavier Aptitude Test)
• ATMA (AIMS Test for Management Admissions)
• MAH CET (Maharashtra Common Entrance Test)
• DPAT  (University's in-house test) 

Hi.

• Government-Mandated Reservations: GIBS is an AICTE-approved and UGC-recognized institution and follows government regulations. For candidates from reserved categories (SC, ST, OBC, EWS, PwD), GIBS offers a relaxation in the minimum aggregate marks required in their qualifying degree:
  • General Category: Minimum 50% aggregate marks in graduation.
  • Reserved Categories (SC, ST, etc.): Minimum 45% aggregate marks in graduation.
• Evaluation and Weightage: The selection process is holistic. While a valid CAT or MAT score is required, the score is only one component of the selection process. The institute also gives weightage to:
  • Academic performance (10th, 12th, graduation).
  • Performance in the Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI).
  • Statement of Purpose (SOP).
  • Participation in sports, extracurricular activities, and work experience.
• Specific Quotas: GIBS also has specific internal seat allocations:
  • Approximately 20% of seats are reserved under the management quota, filled through an alternate process that still requires meeting basic eligibility and entrance exam qualification.
  • Around 10% of seats are allocated to NRI and international applicants.

Hi.

• Percentile Range: The typical CAT cutoff for admission to the PGDM programme at GIBS is generally between the 60 to 70 percentile.
• Consistency: This range has remained relatively consistent over the last few years (2022-2024), generally stabilizing around the 60th percentile as a baseline for consideration.
• Scholarship Consideration: Achieving a higher percentile (70+) can significantly increase a candidate's chances of securing scholarships. 

• Percentile Range: The MAT cutoff tends to be slightly higher in percentile terms compared to CAT, typically ranging from 64 to 75 percentile.
• Consistency: The overall MAT cutoff for the PGDM programme has consistently been around the 64th percentile in recent years (2021-2024).
• Score Range: In terms of raw scores (out of 800), a score in the range of 500-600 marks is generally considered competitive for admission.
