MBA Admissions
in Kerala colleges will be based on CMAT score from coming academic year
(2013). The B-schools in the state will admit students based on their Common
Management Admission Test (CMAT) score. The All India Council for Technical
Education (AICTE) conducts this entrance examination in Kerala. AICTE approves
management schools in the country and entry to these colleges will be on
clearing the CMAT. Students with CMAT scores can enroll in management colleges
approved by AICTE.
Until now, MBA
colleges in Kerala were admitting students based on CAT scores or Management
Aptitude Test scores. Students appeared for multiple management entrance exams
to be enrolled in the B-schools of the state. With the introduction of CMAT and
applicability of CMAT scores, MBA aspirants just need to sit in a single test.
This will save money and time.
MBA education
is serious business in India with more than 4,300 management schools listed in
the country with about 3,700 institutes providing MBA programs. Kerala has around
60 business schools fulfilling more than 7,000 students MBA aspirations. The
complete merit list of CMAT will be given to state governments. The scores will
be utilized during admissions to AICTE-approved university departments or
institutes.
Students who
are interested in management education can register online by logging on the
AICTE web portal from 1 November 2012 to 2 January 2013. The CMAT is a
computer-based test and duration is 3 hours. It is scheduled in February 2013.
Sections include Logical Reasoning, Quantitative Techniques & Data
Interpretation, Language Comprehension and General Awareness.
