New Delhi: The National Testing Agency (NTA) has deferred the Common Management Admission Test (CMAT) 2021 by more than a month. The CMAT 2021 which was scheduled to be held from February 22-27 will now take place in either last week of March, or in early April.
The CMAT 2021 postponement came after a proposal from the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) for a change in the exam pattern. The exam will now include an optional section for candidates having interest in innovation and entrepreneurship, reported ABP Education.
The optional section — Innovation and Entrepreneurship — will have 25 questions and an additional time of 30 minutes will be added to the exam.
The NTA has also extended the registration window in view of the postponement. Aspirants can now apply for CMAT 2021 till February 25. Earlier, the deadline to apply was February 10.
February 26 will be the last date to pay the exam fee. The fee should be paid online, through credit card, debit card or internet banking of HDFC bank or SBI; or through Paytm.
