Remarks:

My primary and only consideration for choosing IIM Indore was the placement scenario which caused me to choose it over NITs which I was getting through JEE Mains. I had got confirmed admission in NIT Bhopal. A lot of people have been asking me about the placement scenario of IPM students at IIM Indore, and the common question encountered was 'Why haven't you given CAT?' The easy answer is 'I am not eligible for it.' The eligibility for CAT requires graduation in any discipline. As I am an 18 year old student who has just passed out 12th, how would I give CAT. Second thing is CAT selection criterion is such that you require 4 years of engineering from NIT or IIT, then 2 years of work experience and then 2 years PGP at IIM, which would take 8 years to pass from IIM, while I would be getting placement through IPM just after 3 years, which would be an internship of 2-3 months wherein the average stipend per month goes ~~ 2 lakh per month, after that if best match of the company-employee is found, you can get a PPO(PPOs for IPM have avg placement of *36.5* lakh per year at IIMI) or else you can sit in campus placements along with the PGP folks(who give *CAT*) wherein the avg placement goes nearly 30-35 lakhs per year. The IPM students have relevant coursework in management which causes them to beg better placements than the PGP peers. The IPM students get best placements in Investment banking, risk management, and strategy , management consulting(the top firms being *Goldman Sachs, Ambit capital, jpmc, Morgan Stanley, and cherry on the top being *BCG, BCN, EY, Arthur D Little and other consulting firms* as well as the top placements in GenMan and marketing are also begged by them, the average placements when you see the consolidated report of 2023, you will see 32.2 LPA which is taken after taking average of students across PGP and IPM as they are placed together and get the same opportunities, IPM being preferred over engineers by many firms including the ones named above. As I am a part of the process now and have been researching through a lot before selecting IIM Indore over the IITs, I know IIM Indore IPM students have better average and median placements as compared to the PGP ones. Now those people who ask might also be able to answer.... Why I and 90000+ students like me aspire for IIM Indore every year. But top 150 candidates get a chance to be in the college(who have 95+ percent in 10th 12th board exams, exceptional state, national level extra curriculars as well as 99+%ile in the IPMAT entrance.) I am sure that those 150 are exempted from CAT because of luck some may say or because they are *exceptional* . As exceptions exist *I will never give CAT and beg better placements than those who will clear it*

The best way to answer the ‘Why IPM’ question in the IIM Indore interview is to state your future career plans and explain how IPM is the perfect program for achieving those goals. The interviewer wants to know what made you choose the program. So, you need to provide a couple of valid reasons why IPM aligns with your goals.

So, it will be easier for you to pick up the skills and knowledge required to have a successful career in the industry.

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.
