2) They are asking for more information. Now this is information that already exists in the CAT form! Why then should you wait for over 1 week to calculate the composite 'indexed' score. There is no extra data that can be added to candidate's profile except knowing which other calls he/she has. The 15% 'Profiles' criteria is a bit of a black box. What is the extra information that is being provided by the candidate at this stage that will tell you more about the 'Profile'?
The interview calls for IIM Kozhikode could easily have been released now given the fact that all the data required to calculate the indexed score was already there with IIM K unless there are other unannounced factors that decide the interview shortlist that will come out after January 20.
Interestingly, IIM Indore had declared a few months ago that the interview shortlist will come out on January 20, 2012 in their admission policy document.
Irrespective, the Stage 1 shortlist seems slightly illogical to the team at InsideIIM unless of course it helps the institution fulfill certain objectives it has set for itself.

Unwritten rule hai bhai... They will see kitni ladkioyon ko calls hai doosre IIMs se..and then decide on shortlist...thats my guess

@timeschange - While nothing can be guaranteed, you should be hopeful for an interview call from both IIM I and K. We believe you should also get a call from FMS Delhi. Depending on what SPJIMR thinks about your profile, even that should be open. All the best!

Wid 89 %ile overall I had received a mail from iim k that u have been shortlisted for stage 1. But when I am trying to access their site and enter my reg no the msg comes that either you have not been shortlisted or you have put incorrect information. Plz shed sum light on this

@abhijit23 - You will have to call up IIM Kozhikode and check. We have no access to the admissions committee of any institution

I have got an overall percentile of 97.61...with 98.89 in quant and 88.91 in verbal and LR.... Xth- 87 XIIth - 91 Engineering - 67 NO work ex...still in final year What are my chances for IIM I,K and the new ones? Regards Hardik

@Hardik - CAT percentile and Engineering marks are a problem. Also, unfortunately you are not a non-engineer and neither a woman (We assume Hardik is a name of a male). Keep your fingers crossed! You never know!

@timeschange:- i would say your overal score was the reason you dint get cal from C. as i have seen with lot of my friends.though it wasnt specified.there was a upper cutoff in its case..not the 95 mentioned. and for A and B ur 12th was below 80.so no chance..and for L not being a GIRL and with lower 12th. that might be the case

Can i expect a call from I,K and fms...got call from shillong despite 78.4 in 12th..(10th-92,grads-85.3,general category)?what u think?

@ team insideIIM - Really appreciate your quick response. Thank you. There is this one other thing - In the form for IIM kozhikode there was an option to mention about any professional qualifications! I have one of those...Do we get extra marks for these? The break up of marks ( i.e. 50 for CAT, 20 for Xth, 20 for XIIth and 10 for grad ) hasnt got any place for the professional qualification. Whats your take on this? Regards Hardik. ( and yes I am a male )

15% Profile is where it may be considered which a black box as of now - They may consider it. They may not. Don't bank on it. As far as your query on the new IIMs go, we know very little about them. It will be unfair for us to comment on your chances there.

Your question is incomplete. If you're asking about IIM I and K then you should be hopeful assuming you meet sectional cutoffs

Right now have calls from 6 new IIM's.. Seniors can i expect calls from I,K(final interview call),S calll with this profile
12 Jan 2012, 10.19 PM
Team InsideIIM
@Poojan - It is unfortunate that despite a terrific profile you missed out on a call from IIM Ahmedabad. Your case is similar to one of our writers Ankit Doshi on this website. He encountered something after CAT 2008 results. However, we really hope you get a call from Indore and Kozhikode. You stand a very good chance.

i dont have too bad extra curricular as well. headed few posts in clg and was in top-30 of Indian Sudoku Championship 2010.. Considering this can i expect SPJIMR score based call.. Didn't get Profile based.. What about FMS?

@Poojan - Both FMS and SPJIMR are on the radar. But such has been the year, we can't give guarantees. And you aren't particularly having the fortune these days.Keep your fingers crossed. We hope you get through at least one of IIM I,K,SPJIMR and FMS

@Neha - Everything that applies to Poojan applies to you as well however, for IIM C I think your overall percentile is a little less. Chances are very bright but then its that kind of a year :-(

Hi...Seeing a lot of 99+ pc ppl and no ABCL calls is not only unfortunate but also demoralising for ppl like me who thought I stood a chance at K...too far fetched now I would say. OA -96.67 QA -93.72 VA - 96.25 10th - 93 12th - 89.6 grad - 76 BE,NSIT 18 months workex in a consulting firm..... Any distant chances of a call from I,K?? Waiting for XL now !!

Only a brave man can predict chances this year. We offer no comments on this because there is no objective way of knowing who they are most likely to call.

Shortlisting criteria of IIMs is not in your control. The best you can do is to try and crack the CAT and all other entrance exams. Hope that someone calls you after that. Meanwhile, you can try building your profile and keep doing things that will enhance your resume. No point brooding over the past. Do what is in your control

@KMS - Why.....BCoz they feel u shud have got a 95 percent in 10 and 12....Also, you shd hv got 100 percentile in CAT....... On a serious note, this is exactly how it gonna go in the years to come....Stricter than ever norms to regulate the flow of 'quality students', if you can call it so, into the IIMs......
