- VJIM will consider aggregate scores and not sectional scores of the applicants in the acceptable entrance exams for shortlisting.
- VJIM will short-list the candidates for PI round based on their best available test scores in CAT/XAT/GMAT/MAT/CMAT/ATMA.
- Applicants may submit more than one entrance test score. VJIM will consider the best test score for shortlisting.
- Although the shortlisting cut-offs will be different for different entrance exams, a minimum 50 percentile is required in the entrance exam for shortlisting
- VJIM may also allow all the applicants to participate in the PI process without shortlisting and then prepare a final merit list for admission on the basis of weights awarded to them.
