IIM Ahmedabad - Indian Institute of Management Vastrapur Answered Questions

Hi Rajesh,
If possible, go through the alumni speak section to get an idea what the alumni thinks about the institute. The training and placement unit of the institute is responsible for providing world class job opportunities to the undergraduate and postgraduate students after graduation for suitable jobs in the industry and various private and public sector organizations.
No institute can guarantee you placements. It's just purely based on how you utilize your abilities and skills at the right time. I would suggest you to contact the training and placement department personally for accurate numbers.
I hope this information will help you. Please, feel free to revert.
Wish you luck.

IIMs usually have cutoff for 10th and 12th marks and I am sorry to say you would not clear any cutoff with 37% in class 10th. However, IIMs also have a policy of inviting top ranker in CAT from different streams. Hence If you can score 99.98 and more, you will have a good chance of getting a call from IIMs. (if you get 100 percentile, you can be sure of calls from IIMs).

Campus life in IIM Ahmedabad is really good. This would most certainly be the best time of your life. You will find yourself among the best and brightest individuals in the country. The professors here are world class that makes classes so much fun. And you are absolutely free to do whatever you want in your life, you will find sufficient mentorship for whatever you want to do. Also it would be unfair if I don't mention that life here is tough and there is constant competition, which eventually brings best out in you. At the end of two years at IIM Ahmedabad, you will see the value addition in yourself.

Campus life is great actually. This would definitely be the best time of your life. You will find amazing colleagues and excellent professors. This place forces you to go outside your comfort zone and achieve results that you wouldn't have thought were possible. You will get all support within and outside campus for anything you want to do. (literally anything)

It takes practice and only practice to crack CAT and I believe 20-15 mock tests are more than enough. Given that you will be practicing for standalone questions and problem sets as well. However if you think you need more mock tests, please go ahead and take those. Questions are not that difficult, you need to master speed and accuracy.
