Dislikes
- Being in anand, Gujarat the mess at irma only serves mostly veg food which is a challenge.
Admission:
First one have appear for either CAT or XAT exam. After that need to fill the application form. Based on the cut off for CAT-XAT applicants gets wat pi call. Then there are two rounds, first written ability test based on a given topic followed by personal interview. Based on the cumulative score the final list of selected students comes out.
Likes
- The curriculum in itself is very different wherein there is a perfect blend of General Management subjects as well as Rural Management subjects as an add on since it is our domain. Subjects like rural society and polity were very enlightening in all.
- The 3 day Induction Fieldwork Segment wherein the students are taken to Village in the 3 days of initial week was a very challenging and new experience wherein we were send to different rural parts of Gujarat and it gave a gist of challenges ahead.
Dislikes
- The Summer internship placement though it was taken up well by placement committee it being in a time when usually companies have already filled in their internship spots is a disadvantage since we lose the opportunity of going to renowned companies.
- As mentioned above the same happens during Final placements also and hence the number of spots offered by many reputed companies fall short thereby lack of opportunities though we have the capabilities to crack interviews for those it's disheartening
Admission:
I belong to general category my cat percentile was 91% and I had converted in the first shortlist itself. The application will be released short after the CAT results on Irma website. Cat exam is conducted a year then the application received and cut off is issued and thereafter there is a Online written ability test and Interview which is now conducted offline. The admission is on basis of composite score there is higher priority for women and also for non engineering students 12 th and 10 th marks are also taken into consideration.
Likes
- The diverse culture of irma is what I liked after coming to irma . Celebrating New culture and learning about it very exciting and open to everyone.
- Second thing was the village fieldwork segment, as a person who has never been to a village it was a very good opportunity for me to deep dive into rural insights explore
Dislikes
- Few management issues are there which needs to be taken care of . For eg: there are dogs in the campus which makes life miserable for people who don't like to be around them
- The examination office working in terms of scheduling classes , taking exams is a bit off. They need to work upon it
Student Snaps:
Admission:
I got into irma through cat . My category was obc and cut off for the same was 70 percentile at my time . In recent year it has been changed. The admission process is smooth, first there was a written test followed by interview and then they announced the results. The late replies or query solving was one thing I didn't liked about whole process.
Likes

- Diveraity of culture on campus is a vibrant tapestry that enriches the community and makes it truely colourful and helps us to know about the culture.
Dislikes
- Students become the experimental subjects in order to teat the teaching ability of the teachers.
- Most of the intership traings happen after wvery othwr coleges have worked..so its very late for us.
Admission:
Yes i took CAT exam and through i got into irma. I gave writing assessment test through online mode which made me think outif the box in order to get into the college. The lersonal intervies was also online and it was really fun . The panelists were cool and make me feel relaxed.
Likes
- Culture , classroom, diversity, Village Fieldwork Segment
Dislikes
- Language barrier. Can survive without knowing Hindi but knowing will be advantageous
Admission:
We need to clear CAT and then a written ability test followed by Personal Interview ( online / offline ). Previous IRMA had its own entrance exam but now they discontinued it. They are also accepting XAT, CMAT

Admission:
In 2011 during the time of my admissions, IRMA used to conduct its own entrance exams, however, currently, CAT scores are used for the admissions. In case you are shortlisted a test will be taken during your campus visit for GDPI. The admission open every year along with other b-schools.
Likes
- Atmosphere, Students Activities, Academic Block
- Village Fieldwork Segment, Summer Internship, Placement
Dislikes
- Few of the visiting faculty run courses are not good
- Village Fieldwork Segment idea is great, but can be trimmed into a shorter length
Admission:
After CAT, you have to go through WAT PI, based on the composition score you will get in. The minimum Percentile required to get through is near about 85 percentile. In my year the process was online, though now it was conducted Offline in most of the major cities. The Process is nice overall.
Likes

- The alumni connect and industry connect Irma conducts events with alumni and industry people like ceo, managers
Dislikes
- Unlike in the other mba colleges, Irma does not have specialized course like finance, marketing in the second year
Admission:
The admission of process of Irma is fair and transparent, initially we want to cross the basic cut off through the mba entrance exams,the entrance exams accepted are CAT,XAT(current year),CMAT( Previous year), after that there is a written ability test based which is a compulsary round but not eliminatory after that there is an interview. Discuss the application process and cut-off if you took any entrance exams.The eligibility criteria is any person who have completed graduation and who are currently in the final year of graduation are eligible.for the application you can apply through the Irma official website and application fee may vary yearly the cut offs for cat and xat for all categories are equal. For the year 2023 cat and xat cutoffs are general category:85 percentile,obc and ews :79 sc : St : If your from any backward area/district you may get chance to add some percentage of marks in the final selection. majority of the people in Irma are from agriculture background
Likes
- Sports facilities of all the sports available and other clubs

Admission:
Eligibility Above 50% in 10th,12th and Graduation plus above 83 percentile in CAT/XAT for general candidates. Application form is available online on search IRMA admissions CAT/XAT Exams are easy and conceptual and conducted once a year An area of improvement is a gd round.
Likes
- First thing i liked in this college is its ambience and class room facilities and subject faculty and overall infrastructure.
- second thing is its diversity in students. Students from all states are in the campus. That will give you a oppurtunity to make friend and gives a good experience.
Dislikes
- The drainage system of the college especially during rainy season.
- Sometimes the hectic nature of curicullum especially during exams.
Admission:
I took a basic degree as there is no criteria for degree. Any basic degree is enough to appear for the exam. After the UG completion the common entrance exm for any MBA college is CAT. So you can write your CAT exam during your final year or after which will happen in november of every year. After 1 month the results will be announced. For my college i,..e IRMA they will accept three exams score. either you can write CAT XAT or CMAT. but before getting results you should apply to IRMA throuugh their official website. After that depending on you score which should be more than or equal to cutoff you will be called for further process. During my time the Cutoff for OBC is 70 percentile and there is no sectional cutoff. if you have score morethan or equal to cutoff you will be called for WAT and after than PI. So as i mentioned there is no corse eligibiluty criteria, the application fee is Rs. 2000 and you can find it in the official website.Every year the exam will happen only once.
