IIM-A MBA wants brilliant academic record + CAT Score

If you are willing to pursue your Master of Business Administration (MBA) from the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIM-A) this year, then you need have a brilliant academic record in the secondary and higher secondary examination as well.

What has left aspirants surprised is that the selection process at IIM-A this year is taking into account the candidate's academic record in the Class 10 and Class 12 examinations as well.

As a result, although the overall percentile at which IIM-A selects aspirants, has come down to 98 from last year's 98.3 for those who have brilliant academic records, aspirants who scored higher in CAT but did not have excellent scores in their board exams did not get a call from the IIMs.
