Studied at IIM Bangalore (2019)

After completing your graduation you can start your preparation for MBA. Being a student of IIM Bangalore, I can provide some insights which might be helpful for you.

IIMB selection is done through CAT. The cut-off for top B-schools is above the 99.5 percentile, which varies over the years.

The selection process of every B-school is almost the same. After clearing the cut-off you will get an interview call but few B-schools follow different procedures too. After getting shortlisted, you will be called to give Written Assessment (WAT).

Written Assessment:

  • You have to express your thoughts on the given argument. Around 20 to 30 minutes will be given.
  • Topics can be asked from current affairs, business, economics, social issues, etc.
  • After WAT, candidates will be assessed with Group Discussion and then a Personal Interview.
  • The interview process is 30 to 45 minutes long.
  • The academic scores have a weightage of 5%.
  • An extra weightage will be given to candidates who have good scores in 10th, 12th, and bachelors degree.
  • The final decision will be taken only after looking at the performance of the candidates in all these stages.

You have to give your 100% to get selected in one of the top B-Schools in India. To make sure you get selected, start preparing for CAT well in advance, improve your writing skills and interviewing skills. Read as much as you can from books, newspapers, so that you can be comfortable in facing the selection process.

How difficult is it to get a cgpa of 9+ in IIT GANDHINAGAR in the first year?

AG
Arvind Goswami Posted On : March 17th, 2021
Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar (2018)

Getting a 9+ CGPA anywhere is not an easy job. You need to be constant in terms of study and securing 9+ CGPA overall requires a high CGPA in all the subjects. 

Credit System:

For IIT Gandhinagar, there is a credit system where the first semester consists of 22 credits with 4 courses of 4 credits and 2 are of 3 credits. Coming to the second semester, it has a total of 24 credits where 5 subjects have 4 credits and 2 subjects have 2 credits in all.

Useful Tips:

Now to get all the credits and achieve a high CGPA, the 10 points that are A grade is not easy to attain as they are given to fewer students whereas there are more students in the race of 9 points. As the subjects in the first year are the same, the classes will have around 150 students.

To attain a high grade in IIT Gandhinagar your CGPA should not be lower than 9. To achieve this you need to prove yourself in every subject as well as keep a track of the grades in the regular study pattern and continuous assessment.

Awards:

To keep you motivated, IIT Gandhinagar includes felicitation of the top performers by the dean and distribution of several other medals for both academic and non-academic domains. One of the domains of getting a medal is exemplary human qualities. So, there is always a reward for the good deeds. 

The director in a five-week foundation program also guides students on how to achieve high grades. For the ones who are unable to attain good grades, the institute helps them find their own talents and interests.

What does it take to get into SRCC?

VK
Vinay Kumar Posted On : January 10th, 2022
studied at Shri Ram College of Commerce (2018)

To get into SRCC, your class 12th results will be the most important. To score a 95 and above 8-10 hours of daily studying is necessary. Revision is one of the key parts. If you also have a proper, more than 75% attendance in your 12th, you are good to go.

Subjects like accountancy and economics cannot be mugged up in a day, so start preparing for them as early as possible.

Try finishing your syllabus before your Pre-Boards and attempt prelims, which will give you an idea about the exam and the proper time frame to complete it in.

Try understanding the practical applicability of the content. Practice as much as possible. There is no other alternative for it.

Set targets for yourself and complete them. Study to learn something new and not only to clear a stage in life.

I have 65% in class 12. Am I eligible for MBA in imt Ghaziabad?

NS
Nikhil Singh Posted On : March 24th, 2021
MBA Ghaziabad

An MBA Institute asks for certain qualities in a student when they finally opt for them to be part of a specific institute, let alone IMT Ghaziabad. Most of them are decided by some factors.

  • IMT Ghaziabad usually asks for a three to four year bachelor degree with 50% aggregate and an aptitude test score usually, CAT/XAT/GMAT/CMAT. 
  • The cutoffs for aptitude test scores are usually decided each year before admissions, but anyone can expect anywhere between the 90 percentile mark as mentioned.
  • Class 12 marks can form a very integral part of the first impression that the institute is going below upon someone. However, the actual weightage of these factors can vary from person to person, rather from institute to institute on the basis of their admission strategy. But, although class 12 marks can form the first impression, a high percentile in CAT/XAT can easily compensate for the fact that somebody has scored less in their plus two.
  • There are various individuals whose 12th scores were as low as 69.9%, but they still got into IMT Ghaziabad (full time) because of their good CAT score. 

Thus, in conclusion, a good CAT score is mandatory for everybody and everyone should prepare well for it.
