IMT Ghaziabad shortlists students based on their cumulative weighted average of academic scores, work experience (if any), and score obtained in CT-GE-PI, i.e. Critical Thinking-Group Excercise-Personal Interview. 

From a few years back, IMT Ghaziabad adopted a slightly different approach regarding its selection procedure. Here is a brief insight into it. 

Critical Thinking: 

The process starts with the critical thinking step. You will be given a topic, which is socially relevant and debatable. You will need to present your argument for or against it. This test aims to evaluate critical thinking, creativity, and written communication skills. 

You may get a topic like - ‘National Anthem in cinema hall is not a real test of patriotism’.

Group Excercise: 

In this exercise, you will be divided into small groups. Each group is given a problem to solve or a task to perform. You need to perform the exercise by discussing it with your group members. They often provide props or kits for the task. 

Example - Your group can be asked about the Govt. of India to design a new INR 1000 rupee currency note that would come into circulation later. Design the currency note by discussing your ideas. The various elements of design for the new currency note should have the contributions of each person. 

GE aims to evaluate innovative thinking, leadership potential, interpersonal skills, communication, attitude. 

The next step in the selection process is the personal interview. In the PI round, students are evaluated on their academics, versatility, communication skills, as well as values, and maturity.

Getting into one of the top-notch colleges is a big opportunity to boost up your career. Further growth is essential to enter the corporate world. Learning skills, personal development, and a wide hold of the network are also necessary. IMT Ghaziabad is one of the top colleges in the MBA Universe.

Further, coming to answer your question, IMT G has reconstructed their selection process to a three-step process of CT-GE-PI. This can be further elaborated as

Critical Thinking:

  • It is a written ability test where one is given a topic to pen his/her ideas.
  • It would gauge one on written communication skill, critical thinking and innovation & creativity and this goes long for 30 minutes maximum.

Group Exercise:

  • It is a group activity. A group of students is given a kit that can be used as a prop. In the kit provided there can be items which one has to market.
  • The exercise aims to evaluate one's idea generation capability, leadership skill, communication, attitude, and team game.

Personal Interview: This is the usual process of a face-to-face interview with a panel.

These are the stages you will have to go through once you get a call from IMT campus.

Further, the final merit of the candidate will be a cumulative weighted average which has the Academic Scores, Work Experience and the scores obtained during the CT-GE-PI process.
