Hello
With an NMAT score of 205, you have decent chances in good mid-tier MBA colleges.
You may get calls from NMIMS Hyderabad or Indore, but the Mumbai core is usually slightly higher.
Colleges like SDA Bocconi Asia Centre, BML Munjal, and IBS Hyderabad are realistic options.
Some reputed private B-schools may also consider you if sectional cutoffs are clear. Overall, 205 is a fair score that can lead to a solid MBA college with good planning.

Hello
You have scored 234 (QA: 78, VA: 84, LR: 72), you have a higher chance of getting a call from the NMIMS Mumbai MBA Core call, as it is the nearest score to the 235 cutoff. You have a good score in the verbal subject and have a decent score in QA/LR, which makes a call quite possible. It also depends on the final year's cutoffs and the specific section requirements. Around 230-250 marks are considered a good score. I hope this information helps you.
Thank you.
Hello,
With a 191 NMAT score for 2025, getting a call from NMIMS (Mumbai/Core) is unlikely, as their cutoffs are typically 209+, but you have a fair chance for NMIMS Hyderabad/Indore or potentially XIMB's HRM program if your sectional scores are good.
I hope it will clear your query!!
Hello,
With a score of 217 in NMAT, your chances for TAPMI are moderate but not guaranteed. TAPMI generally prefers candidates scoring around 220–230+, but the cutoff varies each year depending on the applicant pool and overall exam difficulty. Since you are very close to the usual cutoff range, you may still receive a call if the year’s cutoffs fluctuate. Along with your NMAT score, TAPMI also considers your academic profile and interview performance, so make sure to prepare well for the next stages.
Hope this helps you.
Hello, Good Afternoon,

Thank you.
