Is the new GMAT-like entrance test for APS documentation mandatory and what does it consist of for a Master's?
31 Jul 2026 · Answered by Kavya M P · 1 min read
Yes, the new Digital Master Test (dMAT) is mandatory for some Master's applicants from India starting with the Summer Semester 2027 intake. If your previous degree is in Engineering, Commerce, Accounting, Finance, Economics, or Business/Management, you must take the dMAT as part of the APS documentation process.
The dMAT includes:
- Core Module: Tests general cognitive and analytical skills.
- Subject Module: Assesses academic problem-solving in a general context.
The dMAT does not replace APS document verification or university admission decisions.
