MBA Selection Criteria
The selection process for MBA programs at Symbiosis International evaluates multiple factors. The top score among a candidate’s three SNAP attempts forms the initial screening basis. This strategy allows candidates to leverage their best performance for eligibility.
The final merit list for MBA admissions is compiled using a weighted evaluation system. SNAP scores contribute 50% of the overall weight. This emphasizes academic aptitude. A Group Exercise (GE) accounts for 10% of the evaluation, assessing teamwork and communication skills. Personal Interaction (PI) carries a significant 40% weight, designed to gauge a candidate’s personality, motivation, and suitability for an MBA program.

Required Items for Exam Day
All candidates must carry a color printout of their SNAP admit card. A recent passport-size photograph must be securely pasted in the designated space on the admit card. This documentation is a mandatory requirement for entry into the examination center.
A valid, government-issued photo identification proof must also be presented. Acceptable IDs include an Aadhaar card, PAN card, Driver’s License, or Passport. This identity verification process is crucial for ensuring fairness and security during the exam. Candidates may only carry simple black or blue ball pens into the examination hall.
The university strictly enforces entry rules. Candidates will not gain permission to take the test if original and valid photo identification and the admit card are not presented. Photocopies of identification are not accepted, except for specific documentation related to name changes.
Candidates whose names have changed, for instance, due to marriage, must show official supporting documents. These documents include a Marriage Certificate or a Legal Name Change order. A notarized photocopy of these documents must be submitted at the test center. This specific photocopy is also required during the interview stage and when formally joining a program.
