What CAT percentile do I require to get calls from IIM Blackis, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS and MDI Gurgaon?

Anuraag Das

14 Apr 23

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.

What is the percentile that will ensure a call from IIM Calcutta, Lucknow, Bangalore, and Ahmadabad having 83% in 10th, 83% in 12th and a 6.9 CPGA in graduation, till now having no work experience?

Arshit Jain

If you have a good 10th and 12th-grade point average but a gradual decrease in graduation, it will undoubtedly affect your admission if you do not have work experience.

Attempt to improve your CAT percentile. Having a round 99.86+ percentile, you may receive a call from both the new and old IIMs.

Is it a better choice for choosing FMS, Delhi over IIM-B and IIM-C?

Ruchika Agarwal

27 Dec 22

No, choosing FMS Delhi over IIMB or IIMC is definitely not a good decision as you will be missing out on so many opportunities. Some of them include

Student exchange programs: The top 3 IIMS have student exchange programs wherein almost 30% of the batch spends one term at a European B School. Also, IIM Calcutta is a part of CEMS. 25 students from IIMC are offered the most coveted CEMS MiM degree.

Placements: Without any doubt, the top IIMs have the best placement drives than any other B school in India. All the major companies like McKinsey, BCG, Bain, and AT Kearney visit the campus and hire 50+ students every year. Even if the same companies visit FMS M, the roles offered are different. Also despite being good for marketing, the biggest giants in FMCG don’t visit the campus regularly. So top jobs are offered at IIM ABC and FMS misses out on this opportunity.

Campus Life: With no hostel facility, FMS Delhi has non-existent campus life. Meanwhile, all the other IIMs have beautiful campuses, excellent infrastructure, and hostel facilities.

Brand name: Without any doubt, IIMs have a bigger brand name than FMS.

ROI: ROI or Return on Investment is higher for IIMs than FMS in the long run. Although due to the payment of loans initially, ROI will seem less than FMS(low fees), that’s not the case. IIMs provide better opportunities, global recognition, and an alumni base that add to the ROI value.

You won’t lose anything from joining IIMS over FMS.

How much does the Work experience, test score, other factors matter for admission in PGDBA course hosted by universities IIT Kgp, IIM C , ISI Kolkata?

Senjuti Gupta

08 Jul 22

These colleges don’t reveal the separate weightage break-up for work experience, test scores, and other such factors. For the final shortlist, institutes such as IIT KGP, IIM C, and ISI Kolkata take these factors into consideration along with your performance in the interview. These institutes assign a good volume of weightage to the entrance examination score. So, try to improve your test score as much as possible.

Got admits from IIMA PGPX, IIM Bangalore EPGP, and IIM Calcutta PGPEX. Which one should I go for (I'm really confused about the placements, no clarity whatsoever)?

Dhruv Sharma

15 Nov 22

Your selection should be based on your profile, such as your work experience, industry, and, most importantly, what you hope to gain from the program. If you have 4-5 years of work experience, you can look at EPGP because they have gone through ISB and have capped the work experience of the candidates they accept.

The age range for IIMA is 5-20 years, so the learning will be unparalleled in terms of class discussions and peer group learning. If I recall correctly, IIM Calcutta has a lower batch strength, and the batch is slightly on the higher side of work experience.

Placements are good at all institutes, and your previous industry experience is important. This is something you cannot change and should accept, but you can look at how candidates in that sector have performed over time.

In terms of learning, you'll not find the variety you'll find at PGPX anywhere else. Make contact with both alumni and current students. Make an informed decision based on your motivation for enrolling in the program.

What is the fee for SC/ST students in IIM A, B, and C?

Kunal Kishore

24 Nov 22

There is no concession for SC/ST students in IIM A, B and C. But this is not a major issue.

IIMs offer a lot of financial aid services to financially weak people. In some cases, the entire fee is paid by the college or some part. It depends on the judgment of the panel on the basis of your situation.

All IIMs offer educational loans at a relatively low interest rate. Banks usually consider IIM students as a profitable investment. So rather than worrying about the money, focus more on your goals.

Why did you choose IIM Bangalore over IIM Calcutta?

Abhishek Yadav

07 Mar 23

Both IIM Bangalore and IIM Calcutta are excellent B Schools that give an edge to each other in almost every aspect. If ever you see someone choosing one over the other then it’s only because of his/her personal preference because they both are not lacking in any terms.

Yet if I had to name a few USPs of IIM Bangalore that make it a more coveted IIM than Calcutta, here are a few

Being located in the IT Capital of India, Bangalore offers a locational advantage to a great extent
The corporate scenario is much better at Bangalore than Calcutta
The highlight is its Entrepreneurial culture delivered by NSRCEL which is IIM Bangalore's flagship business incubator. It is a non-profit institution purely assisting creators and funding startups in their journey.
Better internship and placement opportunities are offered here at IIM Bangalore than at Calcutta

Is it possible to reschedule an Interview at IIM, Bangalore or IIM, Calcutta?

Vidushi Sharma

26 Jul 22

Yes, it is possible to reschedule an interview at IIM Bangalore, IIM Calcutta or any other IIM. If you can’t attend the interview, for some reason, you can write a mail and request them to give you another interview slot. You should explain the reason and attach proof with the mail. For example, if your semester examination dates are clashing with the interview date, you should attach the examination schedule with the mail.

For valid reasons, they agree to reschedule.

How was your IIM C/IIT Kharagpur/ISI Kolkata PGDBA interview experience?

Aditi Roy

30 Mar 23

One of my friends had the absolute delight to appear for the PGDBA interview conducted by a multifaceted panel. He shared his interview experience which might help you a bit.

Before the interview began, he was taken for a Verification Round wherein, every detail of academics scores or other profile-related information was cross-checked on the IIMs format. Once they received an IIM-verified document they were escorted to the interview venue.

The interview room had 3 panels; one from each institute obviously.

They asked for his brief introduction first. On hearing about his interest in Data Analytics, panelists probed him further with questions like

What is Data Analytics
Difference between analytics and analysis
Contemporary Data analytics and ML

They further asked him why he chose Analytics. He told them that the increasing demand for the same in Europe and China made him realize how much India lacks in this aspect and thus he wanted to invest his efforts in Data Analytics.

Next, he was tested on his knowledge of Statistics and Mathematics with questions like

Difference between mean, mode, Media
Skewness
Relationship of mean, mode, and median in a positive Skew graph
Hypothesis Testing
What is Anova

The next panelist took the reins and gave him a problem from SPC quality control. He asked him how do you know that his process in electric bulb making is as per customer Norma and is statistically controlled. My friend was able to answer most of the questions confidently and even solved this problem through charts.

Lastly, he was asked about his extracurricular activities and hobbies. The discussion ended with him asking about GST and the difference between GST and previous tax. Even though he gave a common answer, he managed to convert the interview.

Should I join IIM Calcutta or IIM Kozhikode? I am an average student who somehow managed to do well in the CAT and convert both of these but want a fair shot at being in the better half of the batch

Both IIM Calcutta and IIM Kozhikode are top-notch management institutes in India. The majority of people claim that IIMC is better than IIMK just because it has a strong alumni connection and extremely experienced faculty.

But don’t make your decision solely based on this. Keep your aim in mind before deciding.

Choose IIM Calcutta if-
