Hey aspirant

I'd say not very, but it all depends on one's personal calibre, ability to work hard to get into college, and long-term goals. NMIMS uses a three-step selection process to select the best candidates from a pool of applicants: a written exam, followed by a CDPI.

The NMAT or a written exam

GMAC administers the NMAT, a national-level Management Aptitude entrance exam. Based on their scores, applicants may be contacted for further consideration at one of the five campuses. As such, NMAT is a very basic level exam that requires little preparation and only proper strategy to score well. Because the cut off for Mumbai is so high, it is actually difficult to get into NMIMS Mumbai

1. This is the 2nd round and requires a different kind of prep. It generally takes more than a few months of prep and takes a lot of time to form opinions about things.
2. The topic is given before a 5 to 10 minutes before the CD. You can bring some level of preparedness with extensive readings and listening to news channel debate
3. The topics gievn here are quite generic and not at all very complicatedPersonal Interview
   1. This round may be one of the most anxious one with only a few seconds to respond and various examiners, in this case, panelists who evaluate each of your word, expression and body language.
   2. This round may be challengingif you go in without any prep since the panelists are highly experienced.

Granted, the NMAT exam is easy to crack but definitely needs some work after you get a call for CDPI. So to sum up, NMIMS is not a far fetched dream but it is not very easy either.

All the best.
