Admission:

Admission process is pretty lengthy here. First you have to give a management level entrance exam. I gave the CMAT exam and scored good. Then I applied at the college with all of my academic details and CMAT score. Shortlisted students are invited for next rounds, which mainly include GD/PI and even a psychometric test. Based on all these attributes students are evaluated and granted admission.
