TISSNET, basically, has two stages for the MBA selection procedure:
First stage – Entrance test
Second stage – Online Assessment that comprises extempore and online personal interview
- Extempore Speech – Here, the experts will request you to demonstrate and explain any topic associated with the programme of study for around 2 to 3 minutes. You will be given a topic at the start of the session; if you are not comfortable with it, you can ask them to change it. But, you do not have the option to ask for the third topic.
