We have access to a RTI Query and its response by IIM Ahmedabad. This query has been answered only partially and not fully. For e.g. details were given only for the Class of 2014 and not for the Class of 2015. You can see the cover page response to this query here where the Central Public Information officer says - "You are soliciting enormous amounts of information which will disproportionately engage the resources of this Public Authority, and the value of this information has no public interest at large. However, in the spirit of RTI Act 2005, we have provided the information w.r.t point no. 1 to 6 which is placed as enclosure." The applicant had asked for some more information - Work Ex break up, No. of students admitted in each category etc.. Also, the same statistics for the Class of 2015. The applicant had also asked for similar stats for the PGP-ABM course for the Class of 2014 and Class of 2015. Our view Given the complexity of admission process at the IIMs, the various quotas and the 3 CAT percentile statistics involved, the IIMs must publish certain basic data. For e.g. check the Wharton Batch Profile here.  They publish a GMAT Range, the mean GMAT score and the middle 80% GMAT range. Our admission processes are far more complex. But then, more the complexity, higher the need of transparency. It helps aspirants and recruiters. It will be interesting to know what your view is. Please leave your views in the comments below if any.   Important Note Please note that criteria of IIM A changes often each year and hence the statistics give below are only indicative. You cannot base you chances for the Class of 2016 or in the future based on this as the criteria has changed. For e.g Top 250 candidates from different academic disciplines called this year to enhance diversity will definitely affect the stats a little if a similar query is filed later. Also, there are basic sectional cutoffs now. The admission policy back then did not have it. So, the minimum sectional cutoffs for future batches is bound to be higher than what is mentioned below.   All Stats below are for the Class of 2014

  Some IIM A alumni have pointed out that the minimum Work Ex figure given seems to be only for people with work experience as there are bound to be freshers in the General Category of the graduating batch. We don't know this for sure though.   Source for all the Information above : RTI Query   Know everything about the Selection Process of Top Schools in India here. Follow our tracker here.
