What it takes to get into IIM Indore – Stats for Class of 2016

After our stats for IIM Bangalore, we bring to you the statistics for the flagship PGP at IIM Indore which has 450 seats based on responses to a RTI query for the Class of 2016 The eligibility criteria for a call for WAT/PI required an overall 90 percentile for General Candidates in CAT and 85 percentile in individual sections. Also the final composite score consisted of: SSC (17%) + HSC (17%) + Bachelor’s Degree (16%) + PI (35%) + WAT (15%)   The final score did not include CAT score and this is evident from the details of candidates admitted. The criteria for selection for the Class of 2016 were exactly the same as that of Class of 2015. Hence the trends are also similar. The minimum CAT percentile for General candidate was 90.32 for the Class of 2016 whereas for the Class of 2015 the CAT percentile was 90.13. But for the class of 2014, the minimum CAT percentile to get admit was 95 for General category candidates as the admission criteria were different. There was a marginal increase in the number of fresher’s and the number of students with less than one year of work experience as compared to the Class of 2015. This can also be seen as the average work experience of the batch reduced from 17 months to 9 months The maximum graduation percentage required also saw a drastic fall from 99.1 to 94.80 for the Class of 2016. Similar trends as that of Class of 2015 can be observed for the number of general category students getting admitted into IIM Indore. The number of general category candidates has gone down from 235(2012-14) to 213(2013-15) to 210(2014-16). This is because basic filters were relaxed for SC/ST/PWD candidates and it appears that all seats were filled in the recent intake.   Future Trends: With the change in admission criteria for the class of 2017 (27% weightage for CAT for the call of WAT/PI), one can expect the minimum CAT percentile for admitted candidates to increase. Also, the number of females can be expected to increase as there is weightage for Gender Diversity.     For PGP Class of 2014-16 IIM Indore Campus TABLE 1
