[2023] Which B-Schools should you apply to?

@Acornz said:
@avinashkrjha I am extremely sorry but i had read it on their website that they will be accepting only SEP CMAT Score. I think so they might have altered the Admission procedure.Sorry again.
It is okay buddy.

Initially, the notification for Feb CMAT had not come. Once it came, the changes were done on GIM Website as well.. 😃

I have applied in GIM through CMAT. Online form asks, if you have sept CMAt score or Intended to appear in Feb 2013 CMAT. Since there is no information such as Roll No etc of Feb 13 CMAT, they just ask your LOGIN ID.
I think it is possible to apply in GIM with both Sept & Feb CMAT score.
U may check the same by clicking the apply button. U'll get the option.

@sunwinderpal, @avinashkrjha, @supratimd916 I guess no one here understands a simple message like that! It would be better if we simply STOP responding to queries, and ask them to read through the thread. There's 210 pages of content in here, which can solve almost all the queries!! If there are any specific queries (other than posting attempts and asking for B-schools to apply to) I guess those can be answered.

Avinash has taken the efforts for most of these 210 pages and few like me, Sunwinder, Supratim and others contributed in spurts in between. Now I guess its up to the aspirants to take the pains to do some reading/homework themselves!!
@samjones

XAT and CMAT Scores are accepted.

Last years cut off

2012-14 XAT - 76.48%ile, CMAT - 198/400 (Seats 240+12)
2011-13 XAT - 77.15%ile (Seats 240)
2010-12 XAT - 85.37%ile (Seats 240)
2009-11 XAT - 93.1 %ile , Sectionals - 60%ile (Seats 120)

2008-10 XAT - 90.01%ile (Seats 120)
2007-09 XAT - 90.01%ile (Seats 120)

No Sectionals in the last 3 years. So it is expected to be same this yr as well.

@nv Read through the last 10-15 pages in this thread and you'll get an idea about approximate percentile!! Then check the below link for last 2 year's cut off, application deadlines & helpdesk threads of various B-schools, which will help you decide on which institutes to apply & when:

@Anuj07 It would be better if you ask this query in the KJSOM helpdesk thread. For all helpdesk threads to ask institute specific queries refer http://www.pagalguy.com/forums/cat-and-related-bschools/2013-15-k-j-somaiya-aka-s-t-88450/p-3611587/r-4016754

Dnt know if this is the correct thread to ask this..didnt find any other forums...

I just completed my Btech in 2012...but I got a backlog in 6th sem which I failed to clear in my 8th unfortunately, In my univ we can write the even sem exams only in even sem...so I may have to wait till the next April may for the exams and expect the results only by sept oct...I hav taken the cat this time and expecting good score....wat can I do since most colleges start their selection process from feb....desperate...plss help....will it affect my selection in gd-pi itself?
@sriraman89 Most of the leading B-schools ask will ask you to submit your final marksheet and/or degree certificate only by October. It will not affect the selection process. But then if you're not able to submit the required documents by stipulated time then your admission will be cancelled and you'll have to leave the course!

As per trends, it will be around 60%ile.

But nothing can be said for sure as of now. So, suggest you to wait till CAT Results.

Till then, focus on SNAP, XAT.

All the Best.
@aim.game
thanks guys 😃 i.l apply to colleges accordingly :)

I guess nothing can be predicted as of now about your percentile score from the attempts you have made in exam.
It also depends on your slot, your test day and paper difficulty level.
Last year, I saw one guy getting around 80%tile in VA with mere 12 attempts, and one of my friends flunked the same section with 56%tiles (14 attempts) .
Moreover,This year's papers were completely different compared to those of a last year.
So, better to wait till 9th Jan.. 😃

The telecom boom is on a wane in India and you do not need a degree in telecom management to work in the telecom industry, you can work there with a general management degree also.

Symbiosis Institute of telecom Management is a business school dealing with telecom management.

ATB!!!
