3. GMAT - Applicants can also apply with a competitive GMAT score - generally around 500+ marks. This is mostly for those with relevant work experience.
4. NMAT and other test scores may also be considered during admission evaluations.
Additionally, shortlisted candidates have to go through further screening process including:
- Essay submissions
- Personal Interview (PI) rounds
- Academic profile evaluation

Finally admissions are granted based on a composite score considering test scores, academics, interview performance etc.
