Is Annamalai University's graduation degree in Distance Education not valid for admission in a PG from IGNOU? IGNOU rejected my admission due to this reason. What should I do?

If a university issues a certificate to a student who passed a written examination in a state other than the university's territorial jurisdiction. For example, if a state university grants admission and conducts exams in another state, the results will be invalid under UGCC regulations.

For example, Andhra University (state university) should not conduct examinations outside of Andhra Pradesh.

If it is done in this manner, the certificate will be invalid. As a result, it is one of the reasons why IGNOU does not admit students with such certificates.

If there is a court case against the university that issued the certificate, IGNOU will not grant admission based on that certificate. As a result, IGNOU has stringent UGC admission requirements.

Should I join IIM sambalpur or IIM bodh gaya? Or should I try again next year? I got a 93.26 percentile with no preparation.

VV
Vedant Vyas Posted On : January 21st, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Indore (Graduated 2022)

Anyone who can get 93.26 percentile without any preparation is bound to get 97 or 98 with proper preparation. So why give away the chance easily when you can aim for a better institute? It’s best you prepare for the CAT sincerely this time and target the top B Schools in India. 

However, if you are planning to sit for CAT again, you need to be certain about some things. Like you will have to tolerate tremendous pressure and a hectic schedule. You will have a non-existent social life and all your energy will be invested in preparing for CAT. Most importantly you have to remain consistent throughout your preparation. Without consistency, all your efforts will go in vain. You should also make research the colleges you are planning to target next year and study their respective admission criteria.

But if you are not confident enough to sacrifice so much just to risk a year, you can always go for IIM Bodh Gaya or Sambalpur. Both these IIMs are new but will provide the necessary means to start your career. Basically, you need to be sure of what you are expecting from your MBA degree and you will have the answer.

Can I get admission for integrated courses in CUSAT if I have a rank 930?

SP
Sreeja Prasad Posted On : August 9th, 2023
Cochin University Of Science and Technology (2017)

Unless you have some special reservation, your chances of getting admission into the MSc. integrated courses in CUSAT with rank 930 are quite low. The integrated MSc. program was started by CUSAT in 2018. Even with minimum advertising, almost all the seats were filled by students within rank 500 that year. 

Only 60 seats are available for this program and each student has to study Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Statistics during the first four semesters. You can choose your specialization for the 5th sem based on your marks in these subjects. If you are planning on appearing for the exam again, I would recommend you to work really hard. In 2018, within rank 200, around 29-30 seats got filled and within rank 500, more than 55 seats got filled. The seats are expected to be filled within rank 200 in the coming years. The exam for B.Tech and integrated MSc. is the same, but you need to register separately for both the programs and the rank list for both is also separate.

Basically, with rank 930 you can not get admission into CUSAT for an integrated MSc. You must maintain a rank lesser than or equal to 200-500 to get an admission without any difficulty.

How difficult is it getting into IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Calcutta with 91% in class 10, 89% in class 11, and 83% in engineering? What percentile is required to get into IIMA and IIMC??

SB
Shrey Banka Posted On : December 13th, 2022
IIM C | B School Mentor | CEO | Management Consultant

The CAT percentile required to get into IIMA and IIMC depends on certain factors like:

  • Prior work experience: Considering your profile, a work experience of 2 or fewer years will require a minimum of 99.3 percentile.

  • Gender: If you are a male of the general category you will require at least 99.5+ without work experience and 99.7+ with work experience.

  • Category: Categories other than general can receive calls even with a percentile of 99.

  • Stream: Non-engineers also tend to receive calls with a percentile of 99.

An important point to note here is that if you get into IIM Ahmedabad with this profile, you will have to work harder than other students to secure an internship or get placed. Most core companies want candidates only with top scores and IIM Ahmedabad happens to have a lot of such students.

Can I get admission at XIMB with poor academics?

PT
Pragya Tripathi Posted On : February 13th, 2023
Freelancer

A good percentile in the Common Admission Test (CAT) or Xavier Aptitude Test (XAT) can greatly increase your chances of being admitted to the Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (XIMB). These standardized tests are used as a measure of a candidate's aptitude and potential for success in a management program, and a high score can compensate for a lower academic record.

However, it is important to note that while a high CAT or XAT score can improve your chances of being admitted to XIMB, it does not guarantee admission. Other factors such as work experience, essays, and personal interviews are also considered in the admissions process. Additionally, it is also important to consider other factors like the program offerings, campus culture, and location when applying for an MBA program.

If you're unable to secure a spot at XIMB, there are other colleges with strong MBA programs that may be a good fit for you. These schools may also place more weight on other factors such as work experience, academics, and essays. It is important to research different colleges and their MBA programs, and carefully consider which one is the best fit for you.

It is also important to note that the MBA program is not only about the college's reputation, it's also about what you want to achieve in your career. So, it is important to think about your career goals before finalizing any college.

How many marks do I need to get admission for CUSAT?

SG
Susmita Guho Posted On : August 9th, 2023
B.Tech Computer Science, Cochin University Of Science and Technology (2010)

For non-Keralite candidates, to get into CUSAT, you need to secure a minimum of 60%. CUSAT has campuses in Kochi and a remote area of Alappuzha district. For a rank under 2000, you will get admission to the Kochi campus, otherwise, you will get into the Alappuzha campus. I would suggest you work hard and get into the Kochi campus. To get into the Kochi campus, you will have to score a minimum of 60%, and to get a good branch like CSE and Safety, you will have to get more than 75%.
