NMAT 2025: Exam Structure and Timing
The NMAT exam follows a computer-based format at authorised Pearson VUE centres. Candidates can select the order of the three sections — Language Skills, Quantitative Skills, and Logical Reasoning — before the timer begins. Each section has a fixed duration, and the system automatically submits responses once time expires. The registration window for NMAT 2025 closed on October 18. Those appearing for the exam are advised to review their test slot details carefully on the admit card.
