About SNAP 2024
The Symbiosis National Aptitude Test (SNAP) is a standardized admission examination managed by Symbiosis International (Deemed) University (SIU) to facilitate admission into the MBA programs offered by its 16 constituent institutes. This assessment is administered as a Computer Based Test (CBT) and takes place at designated Test Centres. The exam encompasses 60 questions covering Quantitative-Data Interpretation & Data Sufficiency, Analytical & Logical Reasoning, and General English.
Conducted thrice within an academic year, SNAP 2024 is held across various examination centers in 84 cities throughout India. Candidates are provided the opportunity to undertake the SNAP exam up to three times. Among these attempts, the most favorable outcome is considered for SIU admission via the SNAP 2024 route. As a prerequisite for SIU admission, SNAP exam takers must not only achieve qualifying scores but also successfully navigate the selection process, which involves Personal Interaction (PI), Written Ability Test (WAT), and Group Exercise (GE).
