Ques

Does IIM Ahmedabad still have the policy to call all 100 percentilers in CAT for an interview? What are the other necessary conditions?

● Top Answer By Ahana Roy on 23 Feb 22

Ans

In 2021, the required cutoff for IIM Ahmedabad was 99-100. But just scoring 100 percentile in CAT, won’t get you an interview call. You must satisfy the eligibility criteria in terms of 10th, 12th, Graduation marks, and CAT percentile. The shortlist for an interview is made by considering past academic performance and CAT percentile. So, if your past academic record is poor, you may not get a call for an interview, even with a 100 percentile.

Ques

How can a graduated aspirant with a year drop improvise her resume for IIM Ahmedabad?

● Top Answer By Malabika Saha on 22 Feb 22

Ans

Every student with a gap year in their resume should be prepared for the question - ‘Why did you take a gap year?’, during your interview. The interview panelists are genuinely interested to know how you made the most of your break. You should be honest while replying to this question. You can simply answer that you needed more time for preparation. During your break year, you can do volunteer work during weekends or learn something new. If you opted out of campus placements, you can do research projects or internships with your professor. You can do some certification or take examinations, in your field of interest, such as CFA/FRM. These will help showcase that you have spent your time productively.
