Hello aspirant,

It is recognised as job experience for admission if you can provide correct pay stubs for the time you worked. Even if you don't have any pay stubs, a letter on the business' letterhead outlining your duties and work there ought to suffice as evidence of prior employment.

Thank you

Hope this information helps you

Hello Aspirant,

See it is quite difficult to predict your chances from any particular IIM because you don't have your CAT percentile but yes as per the analysis of current data with the academic record which you have mentioned in the question you should have at least 99+ percentile in CAT for top IIMs such as IIM A/B/C/L and for average IIMs 96+ percentile would also work.

Let me make you more clear with the admission criteria of IIMs by taking an example of top most IIM i.e. IIM Ahmedabad :-

IIM Ahmedabad

Admission process for IIM A is a two step process. First step is for preliminary screening on the basis of Sectional cut-offs and overall cut-offs along with different rating points for IIM A which are described in the tables below and you need to clear sectional cut-off as well as Overall cut-off :-

Ratings on the basis of class 10th score :-

Rating on the basis of class 12th score :-

Rating scores on the basis of field of graduation and percentage :-

Rating scores on the basis of work experience (if any) :-

After considering all the ratings on the basis of above discussed factors candidates are shortlisted for Step 2 which is Analytical Writing Test and Personal Interview round.

You can check out complete admission process for IIM A from the link given below :-

hi,

the admission in iims after clearing cat exam , for any graduate students work experience is not mandatory, however if you have certain years of industrial or any experience after your graduation it will be an added advantage, now coming to fresh students work experience is not mandatory, some of the programs like executive mba , where work experience is needed.

Great lakes institute of management, Chennai has great placement record for pgpm courses. Every year, almost 98% students placed in different reputed companies like Dell, HCL, ITC, EY, Cognizant, Genpact, KPMG, Snapdeal, TCs etc with median packages around is 8 to 9 lakhs. A multinational Consulting Firm made the highest offer with a CTC of 28.6 lakhs per annum. The college infrastructure is really good. Overall, it is an excellent B school if you exclude the IIMs.

Your CAT weightage is considered only upto 40-60% based on the IIM that you are applying for. Each IIM has its own selection criteria. Even the baby IIMs require CAT percentile 40-60% and the rest is considered from your 10th and 12th, Graduation marks and diversity factor. Most IIMs will need atleast 18 months of work experience. Considering all these factors, a call from any IIM will be difficult even with 95 percentile. Because only 60% of your CAT score will be considered for shortlisting your profile for next rounds. In that case, you will losr out on your 10th marks and work experience.
