Common entrance test for MBA postponed to March 11

MUMBAI: The state government's common entrance test for MBA has been postponed to March 11, 2012. It was earlier scheduled for February 26.

The Directorate of Technical Education (DTE) which conducts the entrance test decided to push the exam by two weeks as the date fall within the testing window of the newly introduced pan-India entrance test __ Common Management Admission Test (CMAT).

The CMAT is conduced by the All India Council for Technical Education and will be held from February 20 to 28 in 61 Indian cities. Registrations for the CMAT have been on since over a month and end on January 9. This computer-based exam was borne out of the idea that students can skip taking multiple tests and merely sit for the CMAT.
