Answered Questions
Indian Institute of Management - [IIMK]: 124 answered questions
Ques
What are the chances of selection of my brother in IIM Kozhikode (MBA)with this profile (10-7.2 CGPA, 12-62%, B.Com 55 %, work experience of 2 years, CAT percentile 99.35, OBC NC)?
Ans
Your brother has a fairly good chance of section as his CAT percentage is well-above the required cutoff. For 2021, IIM Kozhikode cutoff was 85 (for general category students). But the selection depends a lot on the interview performance too. So, ask your brother to prepare thoroughly for the interview round.
You can go through the section criteria and the admission procedure of the institute to clear any doubts you may have.
Ques
What CAT percentile do I require to get calls from IIM Blackis, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS and MDI Gurgaon?
Ans
For GEM, the CAT percentiles required to get an interview call from IIM Blackis, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS, and MDI Gurgaon are
ABC and FMS: Both institutes required nothing less than 99.5. Those who get admission at a lesser percentile, usually don’t belong to the GEM category. There are many who don’t even get a call with 99.3. So to stay on the safer side, go for nothing less than 99.5.
IIM Indore and Kozhikode: Both the institutes require percentiles around 97.5 for an interview call
SPJIMR: This Institute has unique selection criteria under which CAT is given less value and calls are issued on the basis of the candidate's profile. The CAT percentile required in this case is less than the normal if you have a good academic profile along with work experience,
MDI: This institute issues calls around the 96% mark.
It’s important to know that these figures are based on trends and not on actual data so you will find exceptions everywhere. Moreover, it’s better you don’t waste time analyzing the CAT cutoff and start preparing for the same.
Ques
Is it all right to choose IIM, I or K over XLRI just for the IIM brand?
Ans
If you have an admission offer from XLRI, don’t choose IIM I or IIM K. XLRI has a better brand presence than IIM I and IIM K. It is better in terms of academics, faculty, placements, and alumni connections.
It is one of the top B-Schools in the country and ranks right after IIM ABC. So, don’t choose IIM I or IIM K just for the IIM tag.
Ques
How much percentile is required in CAT to get IIM KOZHIKODE if I have 85.55/84.4/7.55 in 10th/12th/b.tech from NIT-B fresher with OBC category?
Ans
Let’s say you only require to score 80+ percentile in three sections. Will this stop you from working towards more?
You should always give your best first and then look at the results to find out if that worked or not. Aim high and try to score 99.9+ percentile.

Ques
Which IIM should I prefer between Indore and Kozhikode after being a commerce graduate without experience keeping marketing as my priority?
Ans
You should prefer IIM Indore if you are considering Sales or Marketing as your career. Here are some of the reasons:
The number of fresher at IIM Indore is higher and this leads to a higher number of companies visiting during placements offering Sales and Marketing roles.
The percentage of students from each batch selected for the Sales and Marketing role is higher.
The average CTC offered is nearly equal in both. IIM Indore wins over by a slight margin with 23.6 LPA while IIMK received 22.5 LPA
IIM Kozhikode is increasing its intake of female candidates and this will bring more recruiters on board because of the additional seats. On the other hand, IIM Indore already has a great number of recruiters.
At last, the final decision should be taken by you and have faith that it will be a good decision. Both the colleges have great campuses. Wherever you go, the hard work and dedication put on will play a major role in getting the dream offer.
Ques
Will the new liberal studies and management programme at IIM Kozhikode have good placement assurance?
Ans
If you are interested in liberal studies, TISS is the best brand. It is unbeatable in this field. It offers diversified courses such as Rural Development, MSW Social Work, Development Studies, etc. The faculties are great and the student exchange program is so much better.
IIM Kozhikode is a management college where 70% of the students are engineers. You will not benefit by pursuing liberal studies from here. It is suggested if you aim for TISS and prepare for the entrance exam which is the TISS-NET.
In short, for liberal studies and humanities, TISS> IIM K.
Ques
Why is there so much waitlist movement in IIM indore and Kozikode?
Ans
When you approach this issue analytically, it becomes surprisingly simple to comprehend. Here are a few of the best colleges along with an estimated number of seats overall.
IIM Ahmedabad - More than 400
IIM Bangalore - More than 400
IIM Calcutta - More than 400
IIM Lucknow - More than 400
XLRI - Around 360
FMS - Approximately 200
SP Jain - Around 240
There are more than 2400 seats available if you only take the aforementioned colleges into account, and most students who are converting to those institutions will likely choose them over Kozhikode or Indore. The majority of those on the first list who convert also receive calls from these colleges, which convert them.
As a result, there is a significant overlap of candidates, which causes Indore and Kozikode to move up the waitlist quickly. Please keep in mind that the number of buffer calls made also affects how far along the waitlist a person is. Maybe the high waitlist movement is being caused by I and K making fewer buffer calls.
