Composite Scores include your CAT 2024 score and your profile score, including academics, work experience, professional degree (like CA), and diversity points. The weightage given to these parameters differs for each management institution. This blog lists the minimum composite score for the top 6 IIMs at which the candidates received an interview call in 2024. The data includes both flagship and non-flagship courses.

Manoj Vonteddu, IIM Bangalore Co’ 25, S03 Student
Mentors like Moinack are well-versed in the strategies to crack a B-School interview and put you on the right track. Mentorship sessions, mock PIs followed by detailed reviews and suggestions, help with SOP editing, and recorded sessions are helpful. Debayan (admin team) has been very responsive and professional. My IIMB convert wouldn’t have been possible without InsideIIM’s help with my SOP and mock interviews.

Simrat Singh, IIM Kozhikode Co’25, S03 Student:
The one-to-one interaction and mentors comprising fresh graduates helped connect the MBA dots. The WAT preparation was the cherry on top as in-depth evaluation helped me increase speed, thought process, and command over my language. Conclusively, the InsideIIMs bootcamp sessions are the best interview preparation course among other courses. Join InsideIIM's MBA Admissions Bootcamp - WAT-PI Edge S05!
