IIM Tiruchirappalli MBA Admission Criteria 2017-2019

Post the PI & WAT rounds IIM Trichy will compute a composite score of all shortlisted candidates to prepare the final merit list. The parameters used for the selection and the weightage assigned to them is as follows:

• Written Analysis Test (WAT) (15 per cent weightage): You will be judged on vocabulary, writing content and writing skills.
• Personal interview (PI) (17 per cent weightage): You will be judged on the following:
  • Academic efforts and disposition
  • Communication, attitude and personality
  • Managerial and leadership attributes
  • Social awareness and disposition
  • Overall presence

• Work experience, if any (5 per cent weightage): The panel will determine the relevance of your work experience to the programme and its quality and achievements.
• Academic performance at undergraduate (UG) level (10 per cent weightage): This will be calculated using the formula

UG performance score = (Percentage score at UG level) x (discipline weightage) x 0.10

Different disciplines will be given different weightages to take in account the degree of difficulty in scoring disciplines from different domains (This is because ease of scoring differs – engineering disciplines are easier to score at than arts). The weightages applied are as follows:

• • Engineering / Technology: 0.6
  • Science: 0.8
  • Commerce / Economics / Management: 1.0
  • Arts / Medicine (including Pharmacy): 0.9

• Master’s degree or professional qualification (2 per cent weightage): You require a pass in your Master’s degree or final examinations of CA/CS/ICWA.
• Gender diversity (1 per cent weightage): This score is added for female candidates.
• CAT score (50 per cent weightage): Your CAT 2016 score carries half the weightage of all parameters.
