I have given CAT 2019 Slot 1 and my Raw Score id 138 Marks.. My Acedemic Profile is 94.20/90.69/69.20 and I hvae 24 months work experience. I'm Male Engineer Candidate in EWS category. Can I get IIM K Call?

Paras, the expected cut off for IIM K for EWS is as follows:

QA: 80

VARC:80

DILR:80

Overall: 90

The minimum sectional percentile needs to be 80, your SSC and HSC  percentages need to be 60. With your Academic profile, it is likely that you will be shortlisted for IIM K. We hope you opted for IIM K.

According to the official page, IIM K atleast needs an overall percentile of 90. IIM K has a 3 phase selection process. Once you have been shortlisted based on your CAT, SSC and HSC percentages, you will be called for Personal Interview and Writing Ability Test. A shortlist of candidates in each Category will be created on a computer based index score based on the performance in CAT, HSC asnd academic diversity criterion.

The Aggregate Index Score Computation looks like:

CAT Index Score:  75%

HSC: 20%

Academic Diversity Factor: 5%

IIM K will conduct the PI and WAT in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Kozhikode, Mumbai and New Delhi. In this process, the candidates will write an essay and a professional resume which is followed by a PI. The essay topic will be just announced at the venue before the WAT. During the PI, the panel will evaluate the academic efforts and disposition, general awareness and social disposition, attitude and personality and articulation and communication of each Candidate.

The Final score will be computed as follows:

CAT score: 40%
