I updated wrong % in CAT form. Can I update the same during the edit window?

No you can not edit your %age. If it is a substantial change; I would suggest filling the form again

The only 3 things you can change during the edit window are:
A. Your Photograph
B. Your Signature
C. Your test city preferences

There is nothing about IIM Mumbai as yet in the course list. If I submit now, I might miss out on the opportunity.

Don't worry about IIM Mumbai. When their internal processes are done, they will give you an option to select through IIMCAT login itself. You will receive due communication and sufficient time, whenever such a situation arises, to exercise that option.

Will the form submission deadline increase?

But, should you depend on that chance? A big fat NO!

Do NMAT, SNAP and XAT also have reservation?

Do understand that NMAT, SNAP and XAT (just like CAT) are exams which will just give a score. They don't have reservation.

Just that in case of CAT, the participating institutions are government owned and are bound by reservation laws.

In NMAT, SNAP and XAT; the the participating institutions are not government owned and are not bound by reservation laws. Hence, NMIMS, SIBM Pune, XLRI and all other Private Institutions like MDI, SP Jain etc don't have reservation.

I am a resident of Delhi. What will I do if I get Meerut as a centre?

Probability of that is very low but not zero.

If you do get Meerut as a centre, I would strongly suggest you leave a day early. Book a room for the day and be i your best state of mind for the exam next day.

Regardless of the slot of the exam, reaching a day early for a centre so far is always a good idea.

It helps you get a lay of the land and avoid any unnecessary stress.

Is it possible that we fill only the 1st form of SNAP and, later on after our CAT and NMAT, we can fill the college preference form and also make the payment at that time only?

Some of the colleges have their last day to apply till a few days after the exam, but most colleges closes their application form before the results are announced. So if you are planning to appear for SNAP keep a tab on the closing days of application of the various colleges under SIU.

Do all B schools get a 100% placement?

No. None of the B schools get a 100% placement. Those who don't get a placement are made to sign off the placement saying that they don't want placements. All just a marketing gimmick just to show that they have a 100% placement record

So take any placement report with a word of caution

With this in mind, is it worth taking the loan and doing an MBA?

What most people fail to understand is that a degree from an IIM, especially one of the older IIMs, goes beyond the 2 years.

Yes, situation might be tough right now. But, honestly, when is it not?

As someone who wen through Dot com bubble burst of 2001, Subprime crisis of 2009 and Covid and many more; things will always be as such.

What this degree does to you is to provide a confidence to think beyond limited options. It helps you. This degree changes you.

And that's the key takeaway of an MBA. Not the placements. But the confidence to be able to shape your future.

Do we need to apply separately for symbiosis?

Yes, after registering for the SNAP Exam 2023 , it is essential to apply separately for each Symbiosis Institute/program you wish to pursue. This is because each institute offers distinct courses and specializations, and they have varying admission criteria and cut-off scores.
