Hello student, for getting an admission in post graduation into the IIMA, the criteria is on a scoring basis. This score is calculated based upon the weightage of class 10th, 12th marks as well as the work experience. However, they are also broadening ways to get the aspiring students easily and smoothly into IIMA. This is through the CAT exam score. Also, they are looking that ni students remain unvalued, so a combination of AWT-Analytical Writing Test and PI- Personal Interview exam is conducted which helps to get a smooth entry through into IIMA.

However, as your concerned area is about the work experience, it's like better to give some time to an exposure to the market and then apply for the PG course at IIMA.

For more details you could get in touch with the admission cell and over to the portal, iima.ac.in.

Hello Aspirant ,

Non-Engineers have equal chance as an Engineers , sometime Non-engineers have higher chances than an engineers  as these IIMs prefer academic diversity among students , but you need very high rank and percentile(99.5+) to get into IIM A,B,C in CAT exam .If you do get very high percentile , no one can stop you from admission so prepare for it without any fear , non engineers will be treated just like an engineer.

The selection is also based on many other factors like your past academic record , work experience etc.

Hope this helps.

Hey Aspirant,

Hope you are doing great,


The Resume and its format would be determined by the institute. Because a large number of candidates must be interviewed using a standard format saves time while emphasizing the most important aspects of the individual.

It is not a resume in the traditional sense but rather an application form. You must be extremely confident and knowledgeable about any topic you wish to discuss in it. The interview panelists can be experts in any field, and superficial responses can be disastrous.

Best of Luck :)
