Which management entrance exam should I take NMAT or CMAT?

It depends upon your B-school preference, both the exams are unique and considered important. If you're targeting NMIMS (Mumbai and other campuses), XIMB, Amity University, etc., then you need to give the NMAT exam. If you're targeting colleges like Somaiya, Sydenham, Great Lakes, GIM, etc. then you should give CMAT. Both the exams deal with English, mathematics, and Logical Reasoning, CMAT also includes GK. NMAT includes no negative marking (+3, 0), whereas CMAT does (+4, -1). You can give NMAT thrice, while CMAT is held only on 2 days I.e. 28 & 29th Jan 2017. So, compare the features of these exams and take a call. I hope it will help you.

NMAT & CMAT both have their own importance. NMAT ofcourse gets you a GDPI with NMIMS. But even CMAT has it is own importance if NMAT option doesn't work. CMAT is accepted by Great Lakes, IFMR, GIM etc. Not only this, you can even use your CMAT score to get admission to Maharashtra colleges through DTE process under all India seats. JBIMS, SYDENHAM, SOMAIYA, SIESCOMS, are some of the top colleges which accepts CMAT scores for MMS course as well as PGDM courses. I would suggest you to give both the exams as well as CAT and XAT, and even MH- CET. Good luck.
