What is the cutoff of IIM Ahmedabad 2020?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : December 5th, 2023

The IIMs have released their 2023 qualifying CAT cutoffs in their admission brochures. 

Here are the 2023 category-wise qualifying CAT cutoffs for IIM Ahmedabad admissions-

Category

Cutoff percentile

General

80

OBC

75

EwS

80

SC

70

ST

60

The expected final CAT 2023 cutoff for IIM Ahmedabad is 99 (if you have 80+ percentage in 10th, 12th and Bachelor’s). If not, around 99.5+ percentile is a decent CAT score to expected a call.

To secure admission into IIM Ahmedabad, you need a very high percentile in the CAT examination. But percentile is not the only criteria, and the final selection also depends on other factors like Analytical Writing Test (AWT), Personal Interview (PI), etc. 

Moreover, the 99-99.5+ criteria is for engineering students. This has been done to maintain batch diversity. General students from other backgrounds can get a call and convert successfully at less than 90 percentile. 

Keep a track of the updated final cutoffs as soon as IIM Ahmedabad releases the admission criteria 2024-26.

What is the fate of students who don't get placed from Tier 3 MBA colleges like IMT, KJS, and TAPMI? Don't tell me that they have 100% placement because many students voluntarily opt out of placement?

It’s not the end of the world if you don’t get placed in tier 3 MBA colleges like IMT, KJS, and TAPMI. They can apply from outside, can use their contacts or they can contact HR on LinkedIn and can use the brand name associated with them.

What am I missing out on joining IIM Kozhikode over IIM A B C ? How is it gonna affect me in the long run?

PT

The average package you'll accept is determined by your own efforts. When compared to ABC, the level of competition will be slightly lower throughout.

More importantly, IIM-K is known for its greenery rather than its competitive academics, which is unfortunate but does not imply that people are not intelligent. When compared to IIM- ABC, the level of library facilities is lower.

It's good that you have AMBA accreditation and some other important accreditation for a B-school.

When compared to the top three IIMs, the level of teaching and research would be comparable or slightly lower. Although admission to IIM-K is not easy, your talent is appreciated. There will be numerous opportunities for you to reinvent yourself.

Is ICFAI, Dehradun University equivalent in WES?

JS
Jhivika Sengupta Posted On : May 20th, 2021
Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing, ICFAI University, Dehradun

If by WES you mean World Education Service, Canada then yes, ICFAI is equivalent to it. Your ICFAI University degree will be accepted and will be equivalent.

One of my cousins got his WES equivalency certificate in September 2017 where his B.Tech from ICFAI University is equivalent to Technical Bachelor Degree in Canada. So don’t worry and go ahead with getting your equivalency certificate.

ICFAI University, Dehradun is a great institute with a good placement record. According to the recent placement highlight, the salary packages offered in placement ranges between 4 LPA to 18 LPA. 

So, ICFAI is a good institute with decent placement, and also the degrees from ICFAI are accepted and are WES equivalent.

Which is the toughest subject in VNIT nagpur?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : November 20th, 2023
B.Tech ChemE from Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology, Nagpur (2019)

I graduated from VNIT Nagpur a few years back. This story is from my 6th semester days. 

A friend of mine was appearing for his Math-II end-sem exam. He was giving his 3rd attempt at the time. His slots for that year were B, C, D, F, G, H. He had enrolled in 6 subjects. 

He was afraid that he would fail Math-II once again. However, this time he decided to try his best, and studied religiously. He just needed 20 marks to pass the exam, but the Mathematics faculty follows the binary-correction pattern. So he was sure that getting sufficient grades would be as challenging as before. 

Ultimately, he passed the Math-II exam. But having given the paper well filled him with so much confidence that he failed the remaining C, D, F, G, H slots. 

This is a funny tale, and we often laugh while reminiscing about it. But this answer is intended to warn you about Math-II. It was quite a difficult subject, especially for my friend.

Is it true that FMS Delhi puts absolutely no weightage on academics

JS
Jatin Sangwan Posted On : December 30th, 2022
Pgdbm from XLRI,Jamshedpur (Graduated 2020)

FMS Delhi is one of the few top B-schools of the country that gives the lowest weightage to the past academic record of candidates. 

The table below shows the various parameters and their respective weightage that are taken into consideration for final selection into FMS Delhi.

Criteria

Weightage

CAT

50

Class 10

10

Class 12

10

GD

10

Extempore

5

PI

15

An additional 5 marks will be awarded to the Women Candidates who appear for the Interview. From the table, we can infer that very little (10%) weightage is given to class 10 and 12th marks. And graduation scores are not considered at all for final selection. This means 80% of your application score is still under your control and you can harness it to the fullest extent and get selected.

Whats the cutoff marks to get an admission in University of Hyderabad?

SD
Sekhar Dasgupta Posted On : April 21st, 2022
studied at School of Economics, University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad

University of Hyderabad doesn’t reveal cutoff marks. You need to score more than 605 in your 10+2 to appear for the entrance examination. UoH shortlists students for the interview round based on their entrance examination results. However, the details regarding the cutoff aren’t revealed. You will have a better chance of securing a spot for admission if you have a higher rank.
