The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad has now revised its admission norms for the coming batches. In its recent announcement, the institute said that they will no longer consider graduation scores to calculate the academic rating, which is used to shortlist candidates for interview round.
Instead, the academic ranking will now be computed considering marks scored by candidates in Class 10, Class 12 board exams and based on their work experience.
The new process will be used for admission to the 2022-24 batch of the postgraduate programs in management (PGPM).
In view of the fact that for the last two years due to COVID-19, many universities could not conduct exams and based on varied criteria gave pass/promotion certificates. Considering this, the CAT Committee of 2021 had allowed candidates to take CAT 2021 without requiring any minimum percentage of marks in a bachelor’s degree.
