PGDM from Indian Institute of Management, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India (2018)

Before checking if your profile is eligible for getting shortlisted, let’s go through the admission criteria of IIM Trichy once. 

Stage 1: Criteria for shortlisting candidates for PI

  • Quantitative Aptitude- 70
  • Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning- 70
  • Verbal & Reading Comprehension- 70
  • Total (Overall Percentile)- 92

From your profile, your CAT percentile of 96.33 is enough to get you shortlisted for the PI round. Even your sectional cutoff is pretty good.

Stage 2: Criteria to Select Candidates post Personal Interview (PI)

Parameter 

Weightage

CAT

50%

PI

25%

Verbal Comprehension 

3%

Class 12 scores

3%

Class 10 scores

2%

Work Experience 

5%

UG marks

5%

Professional Qualification 

2%

Gender Diversity

5%

Since your CAT percentile is already good, you need to work hard for your Personal Interview. In PI, you will be judged for the following:

  • Communication Skills
  • Academic Ability
  • Current Affairs & General Awareness
  • Managerial & Leadership Abilities
  • Co-curricular and Extra-curricular Activities

Next comes the UG score which is calculated as - UG performance score = (percent score at UG * discipline weightage) * 0.5

In your case the total score will be- 25.704

You lack in the following areas

  • 10th and 12th scores
  • Gender Diversity

10th and 12th marks carry very little weightage. Still, you can compensate for these low marks by paying extra attention to your PI preparing and acing the interview. Another area where you have an upper hand is work experience. 

So I will say your chances of converting IIM Trichy are not exactly low. With the right motivation and an excellent interview, you can increase your chances of getting a call. Your CAT percentile has already got you halfway there so put in extra some efforts to make it into IIM Trichy.

I have completed my BE in Computer Science this year I like to pursue an MA in Psychology in distance education in Madras University or any other college if possible. Am I eligible to apply?

AD
Ambalika Das Posted On : November 30th, 2021
studied at University of Delhi (2017)

Yes, Under the limitations of UGC, every college can regulate and formulate a different set of requirements that they think is appropriate for admissions.

It is difficult to tell that about Madras University, but in IGNOU you cannot pursue an MA in Psychology without a BA or B.Sc degree in Psychology.

If you are only interested in the course and do not mind what the degree provides, then you can download the IGNOU books for free and read and learn from them.

But if you are interested in a Masters degree in Psychology (or any other applied courses) for making a career, then it is suggested you do the course which is full-time.

If you want to add another degree to your calibre but do not want to make a career, then you can opt for any other average University that accepts BE or B.Tech.

Presently, I will go to BTech final year. I want to do an MBA in IIM Bangalore. How can I achieve it? What is the eligibility criteria?

SS
Shruti Singh Posted On : July 27th, 2021
Studied at IIM Bangalore (2019)

After completing your graduation you can start your preparation for MBA. Being a student of IIM Bangalore, I can provide some insights which might be helpful for you.

IIMB selection is done through CAT. The cut-off for top B-schools is above the 99.5 percentile, which varies over the years.

The selection process of every B-school is almost the same. After clearing the cut-off you will get an interview call but few B-schools follow different procedures too. After getting shortlisted, you will be called to give Written Assessment (WAT).

Written Assessment:

  • You have to express your thoughts on the given argument. Around 20 to 30 minutes will be given.
  • Topics can be asked from current affairs, business, economics, social issues, etc.
  • After WAT, candidates will be assessed with Group Discussion and then a Personal Interview.
  • The interview process is 30 to 45 minutes long.
  • The academic scores have a weightage of 5%.
  • An extra weightage will be given to candidates who have good scores in 10th, 12th, and bachelors degree.
  • The final decision will be taken only after looking at the performance of the candidates in all these stages.

You have to give your 100% to get selected in one of the top B-Schools in India. To make sure you get selected, start preparing for CAT well in advance, improve your writing skills and interviewing skills. Read as much as you can from books, newspapers, so that you can be comfortable in facing the selection process.
