What is the MAT exam?

Since 1988, Business Schools (B-Schools) have used the Management Aptitude Test (MAT), a nationally standardised exam, to assist select candidates for MBA and associated programs. The Ministry of Education, which is part of the Indian government, accepted the MAT as a nationwide exam in 2003.
