What's the admission process at IIM Rohtak and what’s the percentile required?

AJ
Arshit Jain Posted On : January 17th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (Graduated 2021)

Since its inception in 2009, IIM Rohtak has steadily grown into a premier B-School, achieving numerous milestones.

The primary goal of IIM Rohtak's admission process is to identify qualified candidates for admission in each category, namely General, NC-OBC, SC, ST, EWS, and PWD/DAP. The Institute acknowledges the possibility of a student body that is generalized toward men and graduates with degrees in engineering and other related fields, even though merit is the primary factor. Therefore, it works to ensure that opportunities for various subject streams and genders are more evenly distributed. The strategy used at IIM Rohtak includes properly recognizing academic consistency.

IIM Rohtak's new admissions procedure consists of the following five steps considering that the institute is no longer a CAP participant:

  • Stage I: IIM Rohtak Online Registration for PGP Admission.
  • Stage II: It consists of a written analysis test (WAT) and a personal interview (PI)
  • Stage III: The Final Selection List is based on CAT, WAT, and PI scores, as well as Diversity.
  • Stage IV: Provisional Admission Offer for the PGP program.
  • Stage V: Reporting to the PGP program.

The CAT Total Score will be given a weight of 45%. (Scaled to 100). WAT and PI scores will be given a weight of 35%. Furthermore, candidates will be given a 20% weighting for academic diversity and gender diversity.

What should be the study plan to get into JBIMS?

TC
Tanuj Chandra Posted On : February 28th, 2023
Student Mentor at Catking

To gain admission into JBIMS, it is essential to possess more than just a study plan. A positive mindset, consistency, and speed are key to success.

JBIMS admission procedure is managed through DTE. For Maharashtra-based candidates, CET scores are accepted. There is a reservation for All India Seats, where one may apply through CAT, ATMA, or MAT. It is important to keep in mind that focusing on the JBIMS cutoff for CET or any other exam is not recommended, as the school is highly sought after and the intake for General Candidates is approximately 50. Therefore, aim to rank first in CET or any other exams accepted by JBIMS, as only the top 50 students are enrolled.

As for the study plan, it is imperative to have a strong grasp of basics and Vedic maths. The CET exam consists of 200 questions and has a duration of 150 minutes, equating to roughly 30-40 seconds per question. Therefore, it is crucial to be quick with calculations. A mentor should focus on speed and accuracy while preparing students for the exam.

  • Start by learning tables, squares, cubes, and formulas, and ensure to revise them weekly.
  • Take one mock CET exam, and analyze both your strong and weak sections.
  • Utilize the option to toggle between sections by attempting the section where you score better first, as this will boost confidence during the weaker sections.
  • Since there is no negative marking in CET, try to attempt as many questions as possible. Analyze your weaker areas and make a list of them.
  • Ensure a clear understanding of concepts for topics causing difficulties by solving 5-10 questions daily. This will increase comfort and scores.
  • Practice solving at least 10 abstract reasoning questions daily. This is the easiest and quickest section to clear, with 25 questions in CET based on abstract reasoning. With regular practice, this section can be cleared in 15 minutes with 95% accuracy.
  • In the Verbal section, focus on being clear with grammar and vocabulary, with the main emphasis on speed. Practice one RC daily and aim to solve it in under 5 minutes.
  • To improve speed in Quants and DI, learn Vedic Maths and shortcut tricks. Regularly revise formulas.
  • For LR, practice 5-10 questions daily and one question of Seating Arrangement and Puzzles each.
  • Continuously give sectional mocks to increase accuracy and once concepts have been completed, start taking full-length mocks. Analyze the first three mocks, set a strategy, and then focus on implementing it while solving all other available mocks. This will help improve speed, and accuracy, and build confidence.

By following these steps, one can effectively prepare for CET and gain admission into JBIMS.

Is it worth leaving KGMU seat for AMU seat of an MBBS taking in consideration the UP bond and internal PG reservation?

SS
Savi Sharma Posted On : September 25th, 2023

You are right in considering the UP bond and internal PG reservation while making your choice.

  • Internal Reservation- JNMC offers 50% internal PG quota, which is completely free of caste based reservation. This is beneficial if you plan to pursue PG after your graduation. Also, you’ll have better chances of getting clinical seats here at around 23k AIR.
  • Rural Bond- Unlike KGMU, JNMC doesn’t come under the two year rural bond. This is a big relief in itself.
  • Location- Location wise though, Lucknow is far more developed than Aligarh.

You may choose JNMC (AMU) over any of these top colleges of UP- KGMU, RMLIMS, GSVM, MLN and LLRM. The reason being, as already mentioned by you.

Is it better to join NMP at MDI Gurgaon or continue with your double figures salary package?

DB
Devi Prasad Biswal Posted On : February 23rd, 2023
Lived in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India (2011–2014)

MDI EMBA is definitely a good choice if you want to pursue EMBA for

  • Acquiring knowledge
  • To start your own business 
  • If you are joining the course on a sabbatical 

But if you are here just for placement within India, then go for ISB only.

It’s sad to admit that even today Indian Corporates haven’t understood the importance of EMBA as most companies prefer MBA graduates only. They specifically enquire if their MBA program was a 2-year program or a regular MBA.

But ISB’s 1-year executive Management Course along with ISB brand name has been deemed equal in importance by the Indian Corporates to a full-time 2 year MBA. This is despite the fact that many students of the regular MBA program have 3-5 years of experience which is not uncommon even amongst many of the 2-year MBA programme students. EMBA from any other Institute is considered as candidates with a lot of experience which is not true in all the cases.

Can I get a management quota seat in KMC Manipal if my NEET score is 249?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : September 28th, 2023

I hate to say this but you won't be able to get a seat at KMC Manipal or Mangalore unless you have a pretty decent score and rank. Moreover, KMC Manipal has no management seats at all and the admission process is absolutely transparent. This is what sets it apart from other private medical colleges. Only the deserving candidates make it to KMC Manipal. 

There is a separate NRI quota wherein international students from the USA, Emirates, Singapore, Indonesia, and African countries apply separately.

So, there are no reserved category seats at KMC Manipal at all, so irrespective of your category, admissions are based solely on merit.
