What CAT percentile does one need to get a call from IIM Amritsar?
To get admission to the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Amritsar for the year 2022, a minimum CAT percentile of 85 was required to receive an invitation for the further selection process. It's important to note that meeting the cutoff is a prerequisite for being considered for admission to the institute.
Aspiring students must pass the CAT examination and meet the established cutoff marks and ranks to be eligible for admission. Once the results of the entrance exam are released, the cutoff marks are announced and those who meet the criteria proceed to the counseling process. This process is used to determine final admission to the institute.
It's worth noting that the CAT exam for 2022 is conducted by IIM Bangalore and students generally get an idea of the expected cutoff trends by referencing the previous year's cutoff marks.

Which college is better for an MBA (PGDM) in marketing among IMT Ghaziabad and baby IIMs (Nagpur, Visakhapatnam, Amritsar)?
When considering MBA programs, it is important to recognize that not all institutions are created equal. Some institutions often referred to as "legacy institutions," have a long history of success and are widely recognized as some of the best business schools in the country. Other institutions, often referred to as "baby IIMs," are relatively new and may not yet have the same level of prestige or reputation as legacy institutions.
However, when it comes to choosing a business school, it's important not to compare legacy institutions and baby IIMs directly, as each has its own strengths and weaknesses. Instead, it is recommended to focus on the specific institution and the attributes it brings. One such institution is IMT Ghaziabad, which is a well-established institution that is known for its academic programs and reputation in the industry.
It's important to note that MBA aspirations can differ from person to person and it's essential to identify what the MBA means for you. There are two types of MBA aspirants:
- For whom, MBA means only IIM (no matter which one and the attributes related to it)
- For whom, MBA means legacy institutions, who have emerged victorious with their brand name like BLACKI IIMs, ISB, XLRI, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS, IIFT, MDI Gurgaon, NMIMS Mumbai, SIBM Pune, IMT Ghaziabad, IIT B/D, SCMHRD, IMI Delhi, XIBM and established their legacy since decades.
It is highly recommended to decide by yourself, Among which category you belong, and then go for it. According to the opinion stated in the passage, the recommendation is towards the category of legacy institutions.
Which is better, IIM Amritsar or the Department of Business economics, Delhi University?
Considering the various factors that define a college’s worth, I personally think IIM Amritsar is better than the Department of Business Economics. I have arrived at this conclusion due to the following reasons
- The IIM tag no doubt is the major USP of any IIM.
- The placement scenario is much better than that of the Department of Business Economics mainly due to the IIM tag
- Both curriculum and faculty are better at IIM and thus there is more accountability than DBE.
- The high fees you invest in in reality help you to be more sincere towards your program. You don’t take it lightly when lakhs of rupees have been spent. This is enough of a motivating factor.
Which one should I join, XIMB BM or IIM Amritsar?
If you have to choose between XIMB and IIM Amritsar I will always suggest you go for IIM Amritsar. Apart from the IIM tag, its relentless growth is a major deciding factor. The ROI at XIMB is very less in comparison to IIM. The points below will help you understand my point.
- The fee of IIM Amritsar is INR 12 Lakhs whereas that of XIMB is INR 20 Lakhs.
- The Average package is almost similar to the 2 colleges ( IIM Amritsar- INR 14.63 LPA and XIMB- INR 15.42 LPA). So when compared to the fees XIMB has a lower ROI than IIM Amritsar.
- IIM Amritsar has witnessed fast-paced growth in recent years.
- It is the only and best MBA college in the whole of Punjab
- The batch size is smaller than that of XIMB and it’s an extra benefit when it comes to placement opportunities.
So IIM Amritsar is the best option among the 3 colleges.
Did RBI visit IIM Amritsar for recruitment as per the recent placement report? If yes, what profile did they offer?
IIM Amritsar has made its name in the IIM family due to the following
- Corporate Competitions’ Presence
- Student Achievements
- Placement Records
All these achievements have made it among the fastest-growing IIMs. So I don’t understand why people keep questioning and judging an Institute of National Importance.
Now coming to your question, yes RBI did visit the IIM Amritsar campus for recruitment last year for Summer Internships but the exact role and package were not revealed to the public. Try to get in touch with some batchmates to get this info.
Is iim amritsar worth joining at the age of 21?
The younger you are, the more opportunities you will receive. So don’t let the age factor discourage you. It’s highly possible that the old IIMs did not consider you. Think of the bright side. You are young and you have multiple CAT opportunities.
What you can do is work somewhere and gain experience. This might upgrade your profile. Inculcate extracurricular skills and prepare yourself well for the next batch of CAT aspirants. Keep trying till your dream comes true.

Which college is better, IIM Amritsar or BIM Trichy?
Don’t think twice before choosing IIM. You should not underestimate its brand name despite it being a new IIM. The more you invest in your education the higher ROI you will get. No matter how the institution is, your own efforts count more than anything. Genius minds grab opportunities even from a small college. And here we are talking about an IIM. Work hard, enjoy your MBA and see yourself flying in the next few years.
What should I choose between an MBA from IIM Amritsar and central excise inspector or other inspector jobs from SSC CGL?
Looking at the 2 options provided by you, I can say IIM Amritsar is definitely a better choice. I have seen many people regret going for CGL.
Excise Inspector is the worst post of CGL and many of them retire as superintendents themselves. The transfer is banned in CBIC so no matter which remote area you have been posted to, you have to stay there for 15-20 years until you become Assistant Commissioner which is rare.
You can change your life in two ways
- Crack UPSC
- Or leave the post and prepare for CAT
You can become a CEO through the second option. I have many acquaintances who left the CGL and went for CAT and today are entrepreneurs or CEOs. Surely the job at CGL provides security but the job itself is not worth it.
