IIM Ahmedabad (IIMA) All Questions

Sahil, first things first, it is not a guarantee that 150 marks get you 95 percentile because 95 percentile means you have scored better than 95 percent of the Candidates who appeared for CAT. And even if we go with 95 percentile, it roughly means you scored 90 percentile in each individual section. Now it is not just your CAT percentile that is considered for shortlisting you for WAT and PI. Yor scores in your 10th, 12th, Graduation are also considered. And the stream you have studied in your Graduation, 12th also matter.

After shortlisting the Candidates, the selected Candidates will have to go through WAT and PI rounds. Selection at this stage will strictly be based on the shortlisting of the candidates done separately for each Category ) on the basis of their ‘Final Composite Score. . The numbers selected in different reservation categories will be in proportions mandated by law.

Personal Interview Multiplication Factor (PIF) = 0.50

AWT Multiplication Factor (AWTF) = 0.10

CAT Score Multiplication Factor for Final Composite Score (CATF_FCS) = 0.25

Application Rating Multiplication Factor for Final Composite Score (ARF_FCS) = 0.15

Calculation of Composite Score: CS (Composite Score) = 0.3 (Normalized AR score) + 0.7 (Normalized overall score in CAT-2020) CS = (AR*0.3/30) + (Total CAT score*0.7/300)

Hey there

You have average academics and also your academics is declining so you need to score very good in cat like 99 percentile or above to get iim a,b,c. Usually for these top IIMs you need to score very good but in your case you'll have to be very cautious about your cat percentile if you need these top IIMs.

After shortlisting the Candidates, the selected Candidates will have to go through WAT and PI rounds.

Application Rating Multiplication Factor for Final Composite Score (ARF_FCS) = 0.15


After the AWT & PI round, admission offers are made by IIMA to successful candidates. The final selection is based on a diverse set of attributes which includes performance in CAT, performance in AWT & PI, academic, co-curricular and extra-curricular achievements, work experience, etc.

Every year, a certain no.of top Candidates from each of the Academic disciplines will be shortlisted for AWT and PI based on their Composite Score.

The Academic Writing Test is a 3 paragraph Newspaper like article. The purpose of AWT is not to test your knowledge but to test your critical reasoning and analytical skills. You need to Analyse the line of reasoning and use it as evidence. You have to discuss what evidence would strengthen or refute an argument and if necessary, what changes in the argument would make it more logically sound. Challenge the assumptions and consider the argument to be weak.

Personal Interview is usually 15-20 minutes with the initial 2-3 minutes spent on introducing yourself or ice breaking conversations. They next enquire about your Academic qualifications, your projects in the College and their applications in real life. You need to prepare atleast 2-3 topics of your choice and work hard on them. Then you are usually given a topic of current affairs and then ask you to discuss about it. Finally certain basic behaviour questions are asked.

Hello Aspirant,

Admission into Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad is done on the basis of CAT percentile. Minimum percentile required for admission into IIM ahmedabad for general category student is 98 percentile. At the time of selection process you past academic records are taken into consideration. If you have scored 90+ in your 10th and 12th you can expect a call from IIM Ahmedabad. Please don't worry there's no concept as aggregation of 10th and 12th marks in IIM A. There must be some technical glitch while predicting the college.

Good Luck

Hello,

THe admission into IIM's is not based on your academics. The admission is based on your CAT score and your selection in Interview. To get a call from IIM you need to get at least 98% in CAT. SO you have less chances of getting a call from IIM Ahmedabad. If you belong to Reservation category then you may have a chance to get a call. So, you can try seeking admission in some other colleges as you have less chances of getting a call from IIM.

Hope this helps you.
