    GIBS Bangalore accepts scores from many entrance exams for admission. As a student, I can say it's very flexible compared to other colleges. You can apply with CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, ATMA, GMAT, or even state-level exams like KMAT.

    Many of my friends got admission through MAT and CMAT, while some used their CAT score. Even if your score isn't very high, GIBS also looks at your overall profile, interview performance, and interest in management. This makes it easier for students from different backgrounds to get a fair chance.

    GIBS Business School, Bangalore accepts scores from several national and state-level entrance exams for admission to its PGDM program. These include CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, ATMA, GMAT, and state-level exams like Karnataka CET. For the BBA program, an entrance exam is not mandatory. Admissions are mainly based on your Class 12 marks, a Statement of Purpose (SOP), and performance in a personal interview. GIBS focuses on the overall personality and potential of the student, so even if you don't have an entrance exam score for BBA, you still have a good chance if you perform well in the selection process.
