Hello,

The admission criteria for admission in IIMA is as follows:

  • For the Academic year 2021, IIMA has introduced a significant change in MBA selection Criteria by reducing the weightage of CAT score to 60% from 65%.
  • With more experience you get more marks.
  • You will have to appear for the WAT/GD/PI rounds on the basis of which you will be further shortlisted for final admission.
  • With bachelor degree you must have atleast 50% aggregate.
  • And your 10th and 12 marks will be used for Application Rating,’ (AR).AR is the sum of rating scores based on their percentage in 10th and 12th standard, stream, Bachelor degree discipline, and work experience.

Hello Aspirant,

Firstly congrats on an awesome CAT percentile. With this percentile you can expect calls from IIMs but for the top ones your high school matters too. As far as the eligibility criteria is concerned , you are fine as the minimum percentage needed in 10th and 12th is 50+, but chances may be less that you get a call from IIM Ahemdabad. You see,even though higher weightage is given to CAT percentile , IIMs always goes with high merit candidates , so people who have score 85-90% and above in class 10th and 12th seems to have higher chance of receiving interview call. IIMs usually put separate ratings out of 10 (points) for 10th score,12th score ,graduation score as well as years of work experience. You may checkout the rating chart in their official website to get a clear idea.Now even if you get selected it is only for the interview round and IIM interview rounds are pretty crucial at deciding your admission and it is not that easy,  , so be well prepared in advanced .
