What is the cut off score for GE/PI?
There are no standard cut-offs. Individuals taking the MICAT must attempt and complete all the sections of the test satisfactorily to qualify for GE & PI. Performance in MICAT only and not the scores of CAT/XAT/GMAT etc will be considered for shortlisting for GE/PI.
When does the GE-PI process take place?
The GE/PI process will be held from 2nd -11th April 2014 at the MICA Campus
Is it possible to reschedule my GE-PI slot?

How is a GE different from a GD?
A GE will have start off with a group discussion and then move to implementing the task or giving it direction. That's the reason a GD takes close to 15 minutes whereas a GE will take around 30 minutes.
How much time does the entire process take?
It's a full day process stretching up to 8pm so plan your travel and accommodation accordingly.
When are the results of the GE-PI declared?
Three lists are released on the day of the GE-PI €“ Spot Offers, Merit List/Wait List and Spot Reject. Spot offer means an official admission offer from the college.

Guys how does cross-marketing work ??? I was asked this in a mock interview, taking liquor as an example. I told that the brand name is marketed instead of directly promoting the liquor product. He immediately asked me how will people then come to know of the liquor as such. I din't know what to answer. I gave similar examples of Wills, Benson&Hedges; for cigarettes, but still I couldn't answer him correctly. Could you people chip in? 😃
