ASM IBMR

Cut-off marks are an important criterion in gaining admission to the ASM Institute of Business Management and Research (IBMR), Pune. Different entrance tests, such as MAH CET, MAT , CMAT , and MAH MCA CET, determine admission to various degrees, including MBA and MCA. Cut-offs vary per category and course, and students must meet or exceed them to be eligible for admission.

 

Cut-offs for various categories and entrance tests were revealed in 2024, giving candidates an idea of what to expect during the admissions process. The cut-off marks indicate the competitiveness of the programs and are used to choose candidates for subsequent rounds such as interviews or group discussions.

 

MAH CET Cut-Off 2024 for the EWS Category

 

The Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MAH CET) is a prominent entrance exam for MBA programs in Maharashtra, including ASM IBMR Pune. The MAH CET 2024 cut-offs vary by round and course. The following table displays the MAH CET cut-off for the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) category at ASM IBMR Pune for several MBA specialisations:

 

 

Understanding The MAH CET Cut-Off

 

The total cut-off percentile for the EWS group is 6.87 in the first round of admissions. The cut-off percentile rises with each round, reaching 28.74 in round two and 15.13 in round three. This structure suggests that students in the latter rounds will face greater competition, particularly as the number of available seats decreases.

 

The MBA Financial Management and MBA Human Resource Management programs have identical cut-off structures, indicating that demand for these specialisations is fairly similar. The same cut-off criteria applies to students interested in pursuing an MBA in Marketing Management or an MBA in Operations and Supply Chain Management.

 

 

Understanding The MAH MCA CET Cut-Off

 

The overall cut-off marks for the MCA program begin at 64.63 in round one. As the admission rounds advance, the cut-off falls slightly to 64.22 in round 2 before rising dramatically to 71.52 in round 3. This suggests that, while the second round may see a modest relaxation in cut-off marks, competitiveness resumes in the final round, where a higher cut-off is necessary for admission.

 

MAT Cut-Off 2023: General Category

 

The Management Aptitude Test (MAT) is another famous MBA entry exam. ASM IBMR Pune accepts MAT results for numerous MBA programs. The MAT cut-off for 2023 in the General Category is as follows:

 

 

Understanding The MAT Cut-Off

 

The overall cut-off percentile for MAT 2023 in the General Category is 55 for all MBA programs and the PGDM Agri-Business program. This demonstrates consistency in cut-off marks among specialisations. Candidates for any of these programs must score at least 55 percentile to advance to the next steps of the admissions process, such as group talks or personal interviews.

 

CMAT Cut-Off 2023: General Category

 

Another admission exam that ASM IBMR Pune accepts is the Common Management Admission Test (CMAT). The following is the CMAT cut-off for 2023 for the General Category:

 

 

Understanding CMAT Cut-Off

 

The overall cut-off percentile for CMAT 2023 is 60 across all programs. Candidates who meet this cut-off are eligible to proceed with the admission procedure. The CMAT cut-off is slightly higher than the MAT cut-off, indicating that candidates must score more on the CMAT to be admitted. This reflects the programs' competitive nature as well as the stringent entry standards.

 

Factors Influencing Cut-offs

 

Several variables influence the cutoff scores for several entrance tests at ASM IBMR Pune:

 

Number of candidates: The more candidates there are for a specific course, the more competitive it becomes, resulting in higher cut-offs.

 

The level of difficulty of the admission exam has a direct bearing on the cut-off scores. Cut-off scores are typically lower for more difficult exams.

 

Seat Availability: Another important consideration is the quantity of seats available in a certain program. Fewer seats mean higher cut-offs because there is more competition for limited spaces.

 

Reservation Categories: Different cut-offs apply to various reservation categories, including General, EWS, OBC, SC, and ST. Each category has its own cut-off, based on the reservation restrictions in effect.
