Hi George,

If you wish to apply through your CAT or NMAT score, you can do so. In that case, you won't need to write the IBSAT exam. Your CAT or NMAT score will be considered for the selection rounds if your score meets the cutoff criterion of IBS. Check more info here - IBSAT Selection Process

Good luck.

hello George,

Well IBSAT is an entrance exam for IBS. It has 9 campuses pan India for MBA degree.

But IBS also accepts the scores of NMAT, CAT. So if you have appeared for NMAT or CAT and have a respectable score in it, you can definitely try via them & so you do not need to appear IBSAT.

But the admission process of IBS gives first preference to students who qualify IBSAT, so make your decision wisely.

All the best.

Hi George,

For IBS you can either apply through CAT or NMAT or through your IBSAT score. The IBSAT exam is an extrance exam. Hence, if you want to apply using CAT or NMAT, you need not write IBSAT.

However, since you have already applied for the exam, there is not harm in giving it. If you score better in IBSAT than in the others, it will always help.

All the best
