What is the difference between direct admission for MBA in foreign countries and admission through CAT or MAT in India?

MBA admissions in US and other countries is not as straight forward as in India. MBA colleges abroad are much more specific about the job experience and profile requirements. In India you will get an interview call if you have an amazing CAT percentile. But this is not the case in most US Universities. For MBA abroad the primary step is filling the online application form for college. Apart from that you will need to do the following: 1. Prepare for GMAT and get an amazing score. 2. Do internship and work. 3. Do some research and self development projects. Build something good and useful. 4. Shortlist the colleges you wish to apply to and go to their websites to learn more about their requirements. 5. Get recommendations from your work place. Recommendations from superiors in workplace are very valuable. Recommendations from teachers are not so valuable if you re going for MBA. 6. Check out the essay topics for your target colleges and start thinking what you are going to write.

There is a vast difference in terms of curriculum, academics, teaching method, cross cultural exposure, multiple options in terms of courses, flexibility in terms of duration of course, evaluation pattern, freedom to pick up campus jobs, etc.
