Hi All,

Goa Institute of Management has come up with its admission notification for the batch of 2012-14. So all you GIM aspirants who have been eagerly and patiently waiting for this thread to start, you could start posting your queries here. The online admission process hasn't started yet , it is just the notification. Once the online application process starts in the first week of October, we will be helping out with queries related with the process. We would try our best to help aspirants know the college better and understand what it takes to be here.


Here is the link to the notification of GIM ->
GIM 2012-14 Notification


Please go through last year's(2011-13) threads and it will help you in understanding things in a better way .Here are the related links for last year

->Admissions helpdesk

->GD/PI Discussions

->GD/PI experiences

-> Final result


Few pointers -> How things are different from last year ->

1 .NO ATMA scores consideration this year

2. Cut-off percentiles may vary this year because last year has been different scenario because of the economy and the less number of applicants due to online admission applications issues

3. We know, last year, the admission process faced issues .GIM has taken all the issues into consideration. Last year has been an offbeat incident vis--vis admission process and in any way it doesn't undermine the credibility of the institute .

Happy to help you 😃

Wat z d cut off prcntle...??z wrk xprnce cnsidered...???

As stated above , calls are profile based. Relevant work ex will be considered and as stated on the Institute's Website , 10% weight-age would be given to relevant work ex

As stated above, 10% weightage is given to work ex for the final convert. For giving a call, the overall profile is considered. Duration of work ex, Quality of work ex, College of graduation, Marks scored in 10th/12th/Grads etc.. may be the various things considered for giving a call.
E.G One scoring 95+ percentile and a fresher may not get a call and other scoring 90 but with 2 yrs work ex may get a call.. or for that matter even one wih 90 %ile and good marks throughout may get a call..

Hope this helps..

will gim give out profile based calls this year??
what all are considered as profiles apart from work ex?

GIM has been giving profile based calls since last 2 years, can't comment what it will do this time but most probably it should continue the trend.

Apart from work ex, as i mentioned in the previous post, Marks of 10th/12th/Grads , Duration of work ex, Quality of work ex, College of Graduation, Graduation Back Ground, etc are also taken into consideration for giving calls.

I Think GIM gives both profile base as well as score base calls:
BUT they give a good amount of weightage during gd/pi..for wrk ex as well as past academic records: i got 94 percentile last yr and got a call, nt able to convert it . (wth bad acads.. and no wrk ex)

Indeed last time scores were considered for giving some of the calls, but overall profile is emphasised upon for the final selection.

You can get an idea of the profiles that were finally selected from the following link
> Final result (GIM Final Result )

It is too early to be worried about what the institute looks for in a candidate , prepare for the entrance first and get a good percentile ! Rest all will take care of itself in due time 😃

I am a Goan and knw that there is some kind of relaxation in the percentile for Goans.I however do not have 15 yrs of domicile as i completed my 10th (CBSE) in Dubai.I have done my 11th and 12th and BE (E&Tc;) from Goa university itself.My father is a Goan...does that entitle me for the relaxation in the percentile required for admission ...Eagerly waiting for ur response :shocked::shocked::shocked:

Is GIM going to increase its seat count this year?
What is the current seat count?

what is last date for applying for GIM?

1) If there is a relaxation in percentile we are not made aware of it , as specified above G.I.M gives profile based calls so maybe domicile would be considered there if at all

2) No , the count is going to remain at 240. No increase in seats this year as far as we know

3) The date for the registering for G.I.M has not been announced as of yet , hence we do not have any clue about the last date as of now. For now you should register for XAT and give your all in your preparations !

nop.. the seat count will not be increased ... its 240 at the moment... it was increased to 240 from 120 in 2010..

in addition to my above post I would like to add , as stated on the website the last date for Online Registration is 31st Dec 2011

i guess you will be entitled for relaxation in percentile if there is any.. but since calls are profile based we cannot comment on the relaxation in percentile
