It is not mandatory to have work experience to join IIMB, but it certainly carries weightage in admission process. IIMB has great diversity in terms of students with and without work experience that makes this place a great academic institution to learn.

The shortlisting criteria for interviews of IIMA or IIM B is based on CAT score, class 10th, class 12th, graduation scores and work experience. However, the weightage given to these parameters is different for both IIMs and also depend on your category and academic diversity. The call and final admission will depend on your CAT score and interview.

As mentioned on the IIM Bangalore website, the fee for Post Graduate Programme in Management (popularly known as MBA) consists of Tuition, Library, Internet, Case Permission Royalty, Course Material, Hostel Room Rent and Service Charge, Medical Insurance, Personal Accident Insurance and Alumni Activity. Another clarification, the programme does not have specific specialisation as Marketing or Finance, it totally depends on you to choose the courses you like.

Dear Rajiv,
For Executive- Post Graduate Program in Management at IIMB. Yes, you need to have submit your valid GMAT/GRE (CAT is not necessary) for admission. However, this is not the only criteria, apart from the GMAT score, you should to have at least 5 years of managerial work experience (not more than 12 years). Along with your GMAT score, you have to give 2 LORs, SOP followed by written test and personal interview.

IIMB brand name will trump that of SP Jain's anyday. It is what you feel adds more value to your profie.
PS - I am really sorry, I don't have as much knowledge on the two programs, as I would have liked, to answer this question.

From IIM A, most probably, yes. IIM Bangalore can be tricky. Depending on your work ex. (I wouldn't count on IIMB) also there is a 80% cutoff for 10th and 12th marks, if I am not wrong.

Please use Shiksha Call Predictor, it would give you a better idea. Try and score the highest, I don't think you would want to score a 99.1 percentile instead of 99.9 percentile just because it is only as much as you need. I hope you get my point.

Hi Rohan,
Though your percentages are on lower side, it is certainly not impossible to get calls from ABC. But, do remember that these class 10th and 12th scores carry significant weights for calculating the composite scores. So, even after getting a call, it will be difficult to get the final admission. As you are from a non-engineering stream, you would get additional points for academic diversity which could help your case. Having said that, there are many other good MBA colleges that you can get if you score a good CAT percentile. So, my advice would be to not limit yourself to aim by aiming for a particular CAT score but rather aim
