MAT Reservation Criteria. MAT or AIMA does not prescribe Reservation criteria for the entrance exam. The Reservation Policy is followed for admission through MAT as specified by the participating colleges as per the Reservation Policy of the Government of India.
MAT question papers and sample papers are the most important components of exam preparation. Practice of MAT previous year question papers helps candidates understand the test structure, sectional weightage and difficulty level. The types of questions asked in previous years help in predicting the MAT question paper of upcoming sessions and thus help in preparing accordingly.
Check the questions papers from here.
MAT mock test practice is an important aspect of exam preparation. Without the practice of mock tests, MAT exam preparation is incomplete. Candidates preparing for the upcoming MAT 2025 exams, must practice online MAT mock tests in the final stage (at least from one month before).
Mock Test
No official answer key will be released for MAT 2025. However, several institutes will provide their answer keys online, which can help candidates estimate their scores. Note that there will be no option to challenge these institutional answer keys.
