IIM Ahmedabad - Indian Institute of Management Vastrapur Answered Questions

IIMs have a hard cutoff of 50 percentile and no matter how much you score in CAT, you will not receive a call for IIM if your graduation percentage is less than 50. However if you are above 50 percentage, then to get into IIMs you will need to score really well. I would approximate it to be close to 99.75 percentile.

Dear Manjuri Banerjee,

Executive MBA is for people who have significant work experience typically more than years. It is usually a one year compact course and it is assumed that you are already familiar with a lot of management concepts. Hence the program usually builds on what you already know.

No, That is most certainly not true. I know a lot of people who had quit jobs to prepare for MBA and are currently in IIMA. Same is the case of people who have dropped out to prepare for something. As long as you can prove that the drop-out or quitting the job was not because of bad performance, you should be good.
