What is NMAT?

NMAT or NMIMS Management Aptitude Test is a test that used to be conducted by NMIMS (Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies) exclusively for admission to the MBA programmes offered at NMIMS. In 2015, NMAT was acquired by GMAC (Graduate Management Admission Council); a United States based non-profit organization that conducts the very popular GMAT examination. After GMAC acquired the NMAT examination the name of the examination changed to “NMAT by GMAC”. For sake of convenience, in this article, we will refer to it by its original name; that is NMAT.

NMAT by GMAC (Graduate Management Admission Council) is a national level entrance test conducted for MBA admissions at NMIMS University and other reputed B-Schools in India as well as abroad. NMAT is conducted every year during a 70 – 80 day testing window spanning from October to December and it tests candidates in three sections, namely, Language Skills, Quantitative Skills and Logical Reasoning.

Keeping in mind the convenience of test-takers, NMAT allows them to choose the preferred date during a testing window as well as self-schedule the test, time and venue, appointment date based on the availability of seats at the preferred test centre.
