Hi,
The following experience is by Risabh Baldi, a student of IIMA '13 batch.
"The interview started with the customary questions (Why MBA, Why Agribusiness Management) moving on to the achievements and ended with a rapid fire session of Mathematics.
The Customary Questions
So, why do you want to join IIM Ahmedabad?
Because I preferably want to stay in India, the fees is low as compared to the foreign institutes and there are only a few colleges for Agribusiness Management in India -IIM A being the best among them. (I had written in the form that I had offers from other universities- totally downplayed this one. I was never in awe of IIM A but even if you are, I guess you should not show that to the interviewer )
Why Agribusiness Management?
I have studied Food Engineering for four years. I have come to realize that although I like Agri/Food sector as such but I am not that much interested in the technical aspects of it. I find it difficult to understand. Also, when I did my internship I was given an Operations project which I found much more interesting and thus....blah blah
Why an year gap?
(This was the most difficult and expected question. I took an year drop for JEE preparation after screwing up JEE (https://www.quora.com/How-is-life-after-failing-in-the-IIT-JEE-examination/answer/Rishabh-Baldi) .) Because when I saw the brochure for JEE while applying, I saw Agricultural/Food Engineering and I was intrigued by it. I had a very strong intuitive feeling that I should be in this sector. I researched, found out good colleges for it and only IIT and UDCT were my options. And therefore, even though I had offers for CS/ECE, etc. I took an year drop.
He stared at me and said "I cannot believe it". I said nonchalantly, "I can't do anything to make you believe but that is the truth"
(This is by far the biggest bullshit I have pulled off ever in my life. The nonchalance to his reaction worked I guess.)
Achievements and CGPA
What is your most significant achievement till now? (Many people screw up here. They say I was a gold-medalist in this that subject and when they are questioned on that they have already forgotten it) I don't give that much importance to academic achievements and so I would say that being chosen to work for the most important project of the year for Cadbury in 2010 is my major achievement till date.
Tell something more about this project. Explained in detail.
Your CGPA (68%) seems to be on the lower side. Isn't it? No, it is not. It is average. In my institute, percentage system is followed and the topper gets around 78%. I understood the concepts but my retention level for technical concepts was low. If I was good at engineering, I would have never come for MBA at the first place. Considering the fact that I had no interest whatsoever in engineering, I would say I have done a very good job. I am satisfied with what I scored.
Rapid Fire Round - Mathematics
(This was a Mathematics prof which I came to know later)
Interviewer: You scored 800/800 in GRE. It seems that your Maths is very good. Me: Yes Sir. Interviewer: What are your favourite topics? Me: Mmm..I like Calculus.
1. Calculus Interviewer: Give an example of a function where ∫10f(x)dx.∫01f(x)dx. is 0 and f(x) is not equal to 0. Me (did not remember the function): Drew a graph of y= -2x+1 Interviewer: Is this the only function? Me: No, there can be many such functions.Whenever the area above the x-axis and the area below the x-axis is same this will be 0. Interviewer: Isn't area a scalar quantity? Me: Nope. Vector. 2. Triangle Interviewer: What is the sum of angles of a triangle? Me: Interior angles or Exterior angles? Interviewer (smiling): Interior. Me: 180 degrees. Interviewer: Sure? Me: Yes Interviewer: 100%? Me: Yes Interviewer: Even if it is on the surface of the earth? Me: Yes, yes, Sir. Anywhere it is 180 degrees. Interviewer: Draw a triangle on a ball and measure the sum of angles. It won't be 180 degrees. Me: Obviously. Because it won't be a triangle then. Interviewer: Why? Me: The three sides will not be in the same plane. Interviewer: So, how would you define a triangle? Me: A closed figure formed by three non-parallel straight lines in the same plane. Interviewer: Ok, good. 3. Parallel Lines Interviewer: Can there be two lines which are parallel but not intersecting? Me (thinking that all parallel lines are not intersecting but still answered in one word): Yes. Interviewer: Sure? Draw and show me. (puts a pen and paper ahead) Me: I can't. I need a scale. (starts laughing) Interviewer: Can there be two lines which are not parallel and not intersecting? Me: Yes. Interviewer: When? Me: When they are not in the same plane. Skew lines. Interviewer: Define skew lines. Me: I don't know the exact definition but when two lines are not in the same plane they are skew lines."

Dear Student,
For that you need to contact to the authority, only they will tell you about that. It might take even a week, month or even a year. As these are private companies so no one can what will happen next. Still most of the applicants get the mails after few months. You don't need to worry about that, you can just ask them about that.
Good luck :)

Hello Priyanksha,
A resume is something that will get shortlisted for the dream company you have applied for. Since resume is the first thing that needs to be build by looking for several procedures in it. In short, your resume must speak everything about you in the written format. Several things that are must to put in a resume are as follows:
I think these are the most important thing that a resume should have for shortlisting and for jobs.
Hope you understand. Thank you!
Hello,
If you wish to take admission in any medical course such as MBBS/BDS/BAMS/BHMS then I must inform you that it is mandatory for every aspirant to qualify the NEET examination in order to become eligible for admission in courses such as MBBS/BDS/BAMS/BHMS in India.
Also after qualifying the NEET Examination, it is must to participate in All India Counseling or AIQ counseling or the State counseling conducted by the concerned authorities for admission in the colleges. You won't be able to get admission in the college without registering for counseling and participating in it. You Cannot get admission only by undergoing the interview process.
But there are certain colleges in Indian states such as Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu that offer BAMS courses without considering the NEET qualifying criteria. Here are the list of the colleges -
IN MAHARASHTRA -
• Bharati Vidyapeeth’s College of Ayurveda Katraj- Dhanakwadi
• Tilak Ayurved Mahavidyalaya
• Ashtang Ayurved Mahavidyalaya

Hello Aspirant!
Rohan Jain is one of the personalities whose interview for IIM Ahmedabad got viral over the internet. He did his B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Kanpur and graduated in 2015. During B.Tech he realized that he was more interested in Management. And he started exploring about it and pursued a few MBA Courses at IIT Kanpur. He took CAT during his final year at IIT Kanpur, And got calls from all the top IIMs. You can watch the whole video on YouTube.
Good Luck!
Dear Pradeep,
Hope you are doing great,
As you want to know about the IIM Ahmedabad interview.
Please explain why you want to pursue that course. If you are unsure, it creates a negative impression. You're willing to give up some years of your life and a lot of money for a course that you're not even sure why you want to do. This is illogical. Try to come up with a legitimate answer to this question. And I can assure you that neither Quora nor Google have an answer for this. Don't memorise the answers your coach gives you. The panel is not so deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly
If you are a newcomer, please be prepared to answer questions about your field. You don't have to be a master of your field, but since you've been studying it for four years, make sure you know something about it.

I Hope this will help you, Best of Luck :)
Hii there Shruti!
Here are some of the fundamental things that you must keep in mind before preparing for an IIM A Interview.
Your responses should make you stand out from the crowd and you need to express yourself in a very logical manner with confidence and zeal. There is no set of questions that they can ask, you have to expect even the unexpected. Secondly, there is no right or wrong to a question, how you express yourself and your answers is what matters the most.
Hope this helps.
All the very Best :))
