@shlokbhagwat as NMAT has already covered basic aptitude, this test might be to check if the candidate is a fit for an MBA by testing their decision making and problem solving. That might explain the high weightage given for this assessment. Just a thought, not sure if NMIMS is thinking along similar lines
Payment not done and form is closed. What do i do now? There was no intimation that the forms will be closing at 7pm today. I've already raised a query. Is there any chance of the form reopening tomorrow?
@@shlokbhagwat It would be really helpful if you could provide us with some guidance on how to prepare for current affairs 🤍 Facing bit issues on what topics to cover 🥲
Can you pls make a video on most important qa, lrdi, va topics that we should definitely brush up before the competency test asap?? my slot is pretty early
Hey just a stupid question...does anyone think that nmims will actually be biased against late form fillers who got latter dates than those who filled the form beforehand and got earlier dates?
Actually i am pretty confused between finance and HR , so i’d be equally happy if got either of them , so how can i justify it in an interview ? Please help
Say that it interested you and while studying for your bachelors you discovered it is something you truly enjoyed and might want to make a career in. So you did a few internships and figured it actually is your calling and now you want to expand on it.
Hey shlok, can you make a video on broader topics for commerce (as you said you're from commerce) which we can cover for the nmims interview? would be really really helpful :)
I have 11 months of work experience currently so while filling the form it counted as 11 months. However at the time of interview it will be more than 12 months. So will my work experience be considered as 1 year and will receive points?
Sir i couldnt book my slot what is happening why there opening it for few seconds and whenever i go there they show no slot available i have wasted 12 hours in this process

I'd say skip it, too much competition is there at your score. If you think you had a bad day on nmat day but can improve your score only then consider going
Totally agree with u bro, score good in nmat- no use , then booked slot of 3 feb thinking that getting late will cost me the 31jan - that to was unfair. i think i just totally got fucked up
The only best call I have, I’m not going for the interview as I have realised I may have to spend ₹ 30,000+ just for travel. Moreover there is no surety (obviously) that if I’d be getting NMIMS Mumbai core MBA due to the huge number of students going for it. Furthermore, after spending such a huge amount for interview, even if I do make it, the course fees is exorbitantly high (25 lakh tuition fees) excluding hostel fees and living is expensive in a city like Mumbai.

Hi shlok
My score is 225 with 25 months of workex and GEM 9/8/8 overall profile

Any one over 220 has a good fighting chance but the sheer number of competition hinted at by the number of slots they have opened worries me a bit

@shlokbhagwat Hey Shlok need your insights???
The best move is to go for the test and give your best if you don’t have better calls but to skip it and save some money if you do.
hey Shlok do you feel they will open the portal to book the slots? because i have made the payment today and could not book the slot
That’s fine you’re in the safe zone as long as you’ve paid the fees. The portal will soon show the option of slot booking
Any updates?

No so how it works is, any workex you have above 3 years will not be given any extra points but this would not put you at a disadvantage as well
So its not a formality to call you, anyone above a 240 has a great chance of converting
