The NMAT and CAT are two popular exams in India for getting into business schools, but they have some key differences. The NMAT, or NMIMS Management Aptitude Test, is used by several top universities, including NMIMS. It allows you to choose the date and time of your exam and even reappear it if needed. The Common Admission Test (CAT), on the other hand, is used by the prestigious Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) and many other top business schools. The CAT is held once a year on a fixed date and is known for its high level of difficulty. While both tests cover similar topics like language, logical reasoning<\/strong><\/a>, and math, they have different formats and scoring systems.
