Hi vits, xombie, maverick..
Can anyone tell me if XIMB lays stress on quants more than other 2 sections.. And one more thing.. is there a distant probability tat a person wit gud scores in 2 sections and bad in 1 section might be considered for a call.. given tat the overall score is high.. just speculating.. coz me facing a similar scenario
thanks

Sobhan bhai...
XIMB has sectional cutoffs(generally at about 85%ile) along with an overall cutoff (generally at about 95%ile)
Apart from these they do give importance to Work-exp as well... In case u have not messed up a section too badly (say less than 70%ile) and have a decent enuf work-exp, you may have an outside chance of getting a call... I think this clears your doubts to some extent...
I guess if u want more clarifications, you may have to provide some more details of your XAT score and profile!
Best of Luck!!!

even i request the XIMB students to reply to this query. I am in a similar state as sobhan. 95.XX, 96.XX, 68.XX. well i do have 4 yrs work ex to bank on. Do I stand a chance?
expecting the XIMB guys to reply to this query.
Am depressed since I lost out in one section in both CAT and XAT while the rest 2 went well. I would like to use the term UNLUCKY for myself though I know that self pitying isnt the right thing. 😞

your profile should make up for your DI score...
but XIMb is quite strict with sectionals..so you are still on the borderline...
all the best! 😃

XIMB is very strict with sectional cut-offs...and these cut-offs are set on the basis of the scores as well as profiles of the applicants. In case there are a lot of cases like people with good profiles but a lower score in ONE SPECIFIC section, then the cut-off for that SPECIFIC section might be lower than expected. However, the work-ex or the profile or the total score in XAT alongwith 2 other sectionals are not directly associated in fetching a call, because the cut-offs are decided on the basis of pre-screening of these factors. Hence, saying that the work-ex might help in making up for the low score in a specific section doesn't exactly mean that depsite a candidate not meeting the set cut-off, he/she would be considered on the basis of his/her profile, but it implies that if people with good profiles are also in your category, then it would lead in slightly lowering the cut-offs.
Yes, candidates under domicile category have some advantage over others in terms of cut-offs, but the weightage for GD/PIs remain the same. So, strictly speaking, if you do not perform well in your GD/PI, then you would not be selected despite being a domicile.
I hope this post answers your queries.
@ ALL - The shortlist for GD/PI would most probably be declared by next Monday or Tuesday and not before that. So, dont panik for the time being. Just chill & relax! 😃
