The result will display your name, scaled score, percentile and related details. AIMS will not send printed scorecards by post or email.
ATMA scores are accepted by several reputed B-schools in India. Cutoffs can be high — top colleges have required percentiles up to 95. Generally, the highest cutoffs fall between the 90th and 95th percentiles.
Unlike some national tests, ATMA does not feature a centralized admissions process. Each institute that accepts ATMA scores manages its own selection and counselling after results are released. You should check individual institute websites for their counselling schedules and procedures. Typical cutoffs for leading institutes range from 80 to 85 percentile. Colleges such as Institute of Management Studies (Ghaziabad), Jaipuria Institute of Management (Noida) and New Delhi Institute of Management usually consider candidates in the 80–85 percentile bracket. Over 750 colleges accept ATMA scores for postgraduate admissions.
