Keeping in mind the prevailing COVID-19 pandemic, the IIM Ahmedabad admission committee has decided to revise the shortlisting criteria for MBA admissions. As per the latest announcement made by the institute, the academic rating (AR) will now be calculated with the marks acquired in class 10th, class 12th, and work experience. The bachelor’s degree will not be a component anymore for granting admission to the 2022-24 batch of the postgraduate programme (PGPM).
Due to the COVID-19 situation in the last two years, many universities were forced to cancel the examination and promote students based on alternative criteria. CAT committee also allowed aspirants to write the national level entrance exam without minimum aggregate marks in their degree exams. Following a similar pattern and keeping into view the COVID-19 pandemic, IIM Ahemdabad also came to a conclusion that the bachelor’s degree component should be removed from the shortlisting criteria for the 2022-24 batch.
