XAT 2007

XAT 2006
XAT scores are accepted by very few institutes, such as XLRI, XIM-B... but it remains to be one of the popular MBA entrance exams in the country. XAT 2006 Analysis.

FMS 2006

CET 2006
The crowning glory of the Maharashtra CET is that makes you eligible for MMS admission to Bajaj (JBIMS). That is probably a big reasons why students tolerate those pesky little Visuals questions. Of course, we say that in jest, as our faculty members have thoroughly "cracked" the CET Visuals and this in turn is a significant source of competitive advantage for our students.

NMAT 2005

JMET 2005
If you think that the IIMs are highly prestigious for their MBA programs, you should just see the reputation that the IITs have for their BTech program. But, what happens when the country's premier Engineering institute starts offering an MBA program. Well, it rapidly climbs to the top of the charts. Maybe the IIMs should consider offering an Engineering degree. In any case, here is your JMET 2005 Analysis.

SNAP 2005
Quick question: how many different institutes are there in the Symbiosis Pune fold? Don't know the answer don't worry, very few people do. The number is ever changing and instead of offering yet another course in the same institute the good folks at Symbiosis prefer to start a whole new institute for that. And admissions to all of them come together in the SNAP. SNAP 2005 Analysis.

IRMA 2005
In the beginning stages on one's MBA dreams, I often come across candidates who have not heard of IRMA. When you tell them that the RM in the name of the institute stands for Rural Management, many of them respond with a "I do not want to live in a village". Of course, the astute MBA aspirant knows that IRMA offers a premier MBA program. Read the IRMA 2005 Analysis.
