Thank you!
Hello, This is a difficult situation. Unfortunately, if you paid your NMAT registration fee but missed the deadline to schedule your exam slot, you generally cannot schedule that attempt. The scheduling window is strict, and once it closes, you lose that attempt and the fee is forfeited. "Rescheduling" is a paid option that only applies if you have already scheduled a date and want to change it to a different date (at least 72 hours in advance).
I hope you found this information helpful, and for any study related problems you can ask in careers360 app.
Have a great day!
Hello,
If you have booked the NMAT exam but missed the slot booking deadline, unfortunately, you cannot schedule the exam for that attempt now, as NMAT strictly closes the slot booking once the window ends.
However, you can still book a retake only if your previous attempt was completed within the exam window and the retake registration is open on your NMAT dashboard. If you didn’t take the first test at all, you’ll need to wait for the next NMAT cycle.
It’s advised to keep checking your NMAT by GMAC account and official notifications in case the window is extended or reopened. Otherwise, you’ll have to reapply in the next session when registrations begin again.
Hope you understand.
