A B-school admission doesn’t always mean scoring high in CAT. The entrance exam is just one part of the overall admission process and there are multiple layers to the selection where your profile plays an important role. We have seen examples after examples from top B-schools where students with way lower CAT percentile secure a seat, all thanks to their impressive profile. But what about a scenario where you have to build your profile from scratch when you are a fresher! Is there any chance for you to compete with other experienced candidates with good CAT scores battling it out for the same seat! What are some of the criteria that make or break your chances of a B-school selection and how can you strengthen them? All this and a lot more will be covered in this episode today.
*This is a promoted feature. Beyond academics, there are a lot of things that you can engage yourself in to make sure that you have a strong profile. The panelists taking a call on the selection of candidates don't always look at your CAT scores or your previous acads or experience of working. It sometimes gets decided on an impressive profile you have built for yourself as well. So what are some of the ways with which you can do this and how can it help you in the longer run. Find answers to these questions in the video.
