Questions Asked On IIM Kozhikode, Kozhikode

What are the chances of selection of my brother in IIM Kozhikode (MBA)with this profile (10-7.2 CGPA, 12-62%, B.Com 55 %, work experience of 2 years, CAT percentile 99.35, OBC NC)?

Your brother has a fairly good chance of section as his CAT percentage is well-above the required cutoff. For 2021, IIM Kozhikode cutoff was 85 (for general category students). But the selection depends a lot on the interview performance too. So, ask your brother to prepare thoroughly for the interview round. 

You can go through the section criteria and the admission procedure of the institute to clear any doubts you may have.

What CAT percentile do I require to get calls from IIM Blackis, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS and MDI Gurgaon?

AD
Anuraag Das Posted On : April 14th, 2023
Studied at MBA from NMIMS (2020)

For GEM, the CAT percentiles required to get an interview call from IIM Blackis, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS, and MDI Gurgaon are 

  • ABC and FMS: Both institutes required nothing less than 99.5. Those who get admission at a lesser percentile, usually don’t belong to the GEM category. There are many who don’t even get a call with 99.3. So to stay on the safer side, go for nothing less than 99.5.
  • IIM Indore and Kozhikode: Both the institutes require percentiles around 97.5 for an interview call
  • SPJIMR: This Institute has unique selection criteria under which CAT is given less value and calls are issued on the basis of the candidate's profile. The CAT percentile required in this case is less than the normal if you have a good academic profile along with work experience,
  • MDI: This institute issues calls around the 96% mark.

It’s important to know that these figures are based on trends and not on actual data so you will find exceptions everywhere. Moreover, it’s better you don’t waste time analyzing the CAT cutoff and start preparing for the same.

Is it all right to choose IIM, I or K over XLRI just for the IIM brand?

RG
Rimjhim Ghosh Posted On : July 26th, 2022
Studied at Xavier School of Management (2019)

If you have an admission offer from XLRI, don’t choose IIM I or IIM K. XLRI has a better brand presence than IIM I and IIM K. It is better in terms of academics, faculty, placements, and alumni connections. 

It is one of the top B-Schools in the country and ranks right after IIM ABC. So, don’t choose IIM I or IIM K just for the IIM tag.

Which is better: IIM K or NITIE?

PD
Pavitra Das Posted On : August 20th, 2021
PGDIM Industrial Management, National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2018)

Both IIM K and NITIE are renowned institutes and offer the same placement opportunities. 

  • If you take a look from an ROI point of view then NITIE has an upper hand. The fee structure at NITIE is 12.53 lakhs and is half or less than that from IIM K. 
  • NITIE is known for its Operations branch. The majority of SCM Head, VP Operations, Head logistics in industries are a part of the alumni of NITIE. 
  • If you are not interested in Operations then opt for IIM K. It has been ranked above NITIE and if the IIM tag is what that you desire the go for it. 

Your decision may be influenced by the distance of these institutions from your hometown, financial background, preference for a particular specialization, and many such factors. Since it is an important decision do not hastily jump to conclusions. Make a wise choice that would benefit you in the future.

Which IIM should I prefer between Indore and Kozhikode after being a commerce graduate without experience keeping marketing as my priority?

GS
Garima Sethi Posted On : September 20th, 2021
Studied MBA from Indian Institute of Management Indore (2019)

You should prefer IIM Indore if you are considering Sales or Marketing as your career. Here are some of the reasons:

  • The number of fresher at IIM Indore is higher and this leads to a higher number of companies visiting during placements offering Sales and Marketing roles.
  • The percentage of students from each batch selected for the Sales and Marketing role is higher.
  • The average CTC offered is nearly equal in both. IIM Indore wins over by a slight margin with 23.6 LPA while IIMK received 22.5 LPA
  • IIM Kozhikode is increasing its intake of female candidates and this will bring more recruiters on board because of the additional seats. On the other hand, IIM Indore already has a great number of recruiters.

At last, the final decision should be taken by you and have faith that it will be a good decision. Both the colleges have great campuses. Wherever you go, the hard work and dedication put on will play a major role in getting the dream offer.

Will the new liberal studies and management programme at IIM Kozhikode have good placement assurance?

SD
Sanglap Dasgupta Posted On : September 21st, 2021
Studied Finance & Marketing at Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode

If you are interested in liberal studies, TISS is the best brand. It is unbeatable in this field. It offers diversified courses such as Rural Development, MSW Social Work, Development Studies, etc. The faculties are great and the student exchange program is so much better.

IIM Kozhikode is a management college where 70% of the students are engineers. You will not benefit by pursuing liberal studies from here. It is suggested if you aim for TISS and prepare for the entrance exam which is the TISS-NET.

In short, for liberal studies and humanities, TISS> IIM K.

Why is there so much waitlist movement in IIM indore and Kozikode?

HS
Harleen Sethi Posted On : January 24th, 2023
IIM Calcutta | Category Manager intern at Amazon

When you approach this issue analytically, it becomes surprisingly simple to comprehend. Here are a few of the best colleges along with an estimated number of seats overall.

  • IIM Ahmedabad - More than 400
  • IIM Bangalore - More than 400
  • IIM Calcutta - More than 400
  • IIM Lucknow - More than 400
  • XLRI - Around 360
  • FMS - Approximately 200
  • SP Jain - Around 240

There are more than 2400 seats available if you only take the aforementioned colleges into account, and most students who are converting to those institutions will likely choose them over Kozhikode or Indore. The majority of those on the first list who convert also receive calls from these colleges, which convert them.

As a result, there is a significant overlap of candidates, which causes Indore and Kozikode to move up the waitlist quickly. Please keep in mind that the number of buffer calls made also affects how far along the waitlist a person is. Maybe the high waitlist movement is being caused by I and K making fewer buffer calls.
