Top institutes in the Country

The most coveted colleges to pursue an MBA in India are the 6 IIMs (Indian Institute of Management), and the courses offered by another dozen leading schools. All these institutes have an excellent track record in offering high quality education, and students from these institutes get the pick of corporate and management jobs directly from campus. There are several other colleges that offer an MBA degree.

Leading MBA courses in India
(The list below is in no particular order - each institute is reputed, and appeals to different student types)

The Written Test

• Each institute has a written admission test, either its own test or part of a common test used by several institutes.

• These tests are typically 2-hour multiple-choice tests.

• Currently, all tests are paper-based (i.e., you answer on paper with a pencil); however there is a move towards computer-based tests. XLRI experimented with a computer-based test in 2002, but operational problems forced its cancellation.

• Each institute conducts its test once a year.

• Test scores or marks are not revealed by any institute. Successful candidates are informed directly

• Most of these tests cover high school topics, and difficulty levels are not very high for a graduate (unlike graduate entrance exams like IIT-JEE or Medical). However, skills like time management (answering maximum number of questions in the given time), error minimization (keeping number of wrong answers low, to avoid negative marking) and question selection (attempting questions in an order that suits your strengths) are critical in maximizing performance.
