Executive Master of Business Administration (eMBA) 

offered by IIM Raipur

Yes, a minimum of three years of work experience is required for admission to Executive MBA at IIM Raipur. The Executive MBA programme is specially curated for working professionals to update their skills in their relevant domain.

Besides work experience, the candidate should possess a bachelor’s degree with a minimum of 50% aggregate (45% for reserved categories) and have a minimum of three years of work experience.

The candidate will be selected based on their academic performance at Under-Graduate and HSC levels and their Work Experience and Diversity factor, followed by the Personal Interview (PI) round.

IIM Raipur, like other top IIMs, accepts admission for most of its courses based on the Common Admission Test (CAT) score. The application process for CAT is generally concluded between August and September. Also, Candidates having their CAT percentile in accordance with the cut-off list released by IIM Raipur can register further for the personal interview (PI) round, and the registration process for Personal Interview (PI) is usually held in June. Therefore, candidates are advised to apply for both processes within the given time period.

The answer to this question of whether an average student can get into IIM can be both yes and no depending on the definition of an average student.

• Based on Academics (Class 10/ Class 12/ Graduation): While a student with average scores in Class 10, Class 12 and graduation with a good CAT score certainly has good chances of getting a call from IIM-A, chances are less for someone with an average CAT score.
• Based on student category (General or Reserved): While it is tough for a General category average student to grab a seat at IIM due to high score requirements, a reserved category student can get admission being at average scores as well.
• Based on past work experience, diversity and other factors: Gender and academic diversity is also a factor on which students are shortlisted at IIM. IIMs judge the past academic category based on the degree obtained by the students before MBA and then a weightage is allotted based on that. For Engineers, the percentage for scoring the highest marks is higher as compared with other streams
• Performance in selection rounds: Once you make it to the final selection rounds, i.e., AWT/PI process, it can be considered a fresh start. At this stage, students can forget their past average-ness but definitely require good grasp over the past subjects as academics-related questions are asked in the interview.

Based on the above factors, it can be considered that while getting into top Management institutes, such as IIM is extremely tough, the past performance, CAT performance, student category and a lot of factors can be the reasons for a student to receive that final call.
