The prestigious Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore has
announced its selection criterion for 2012-14 batch. This year, the institute
will give weightage to several parameters such as CAT 2011 score, performance
in class X, XII and relevant work experience. Student’s performance
in Personal Interview rounds would also be given weightage.
There will be two rounds of admission. The first will shortlist candidates on the basis of their score in CAT 2011. Those who qualify this round will be called for Personal Interview round. In this round, the student will be asked to write a short note (one page long) on any topic given by the institute. The topics include current affairs, political or an economic issue, sports and business affairs, etc. The student will be asked to complete his essay in 30 minutes. In this stage a candidate’s work experience would be evaluated. Once a candidate clears this round then he will be called for Personal Interview Round.

Those students who secure the required percentile, his
percentage scores in the 10th and 12th board exams are initially adjusted by
dividing each such score by the 90th percentile score obtained in that board.
The database of 10th and 12th scores of all CAT applicants of the
past two years is used for identifying the 90th percentile score for each 10th
and 12th board for this purpose. Then marks scored in graduation are
considered. In this first round of short listing, candidates with Chartered
Accountancy, Cost Accounting, and Company Secretary certifications are eligible
for weight under professional course. No other professional course is eligible
for weight under professional course.

Those who get the desired results are called for second

mark students on Note Content, Note Style and Personal Interview.
The work experience score will be multiplied by the quality
of experience score, as evaluated by the interviewing panel. The quality of
work experience score will be evaluated on a 5 point scale (0 – 0.5 – 1 – 1.5 –
