Hi Purnima,

The MBA entrance exams don’t have any restrictions for any undergrad stream. Thus, any graduate can apply for MBA selection procedure. That’s why we can see a lot of diversity within the newly elected batch of every B-School. Every B-School wants that its fresh intake should come from diverse backgrounds. Hence there are people of M.B.B.S background as well as people from law, and CA background students who have joined different B-Schools to pursue MBA degree. Hence, there is no disclination as such.

The admission process for MBA in top MBA colleges usually opens every year in the month of July/August and closes after 2-3 months from the opening date. Colleges such as IIFT, IIMs, XLRI, NMIMS, SIBM among others open their admission process in the month of July-August. There are other MBA colleges like FMS, MDI, SPJIMR, IMI, IMT, begin their admission process in the month of September-October and complete it in December. If you wish to do MBA from one of the top MBA colleges in India, you should be aware about their admission process and understand how their admission process flows.

Here is a general sequence of steps that most of the B-School follows for the intake of their fresh batch,

The admission process in top MBA colleges open in August/September first week and closes in November last week. Candidates who desire to seek admission in top MBA colleges should register and apply for the relevant MBA entrance exams like CAT/XAT/IIFT/NMAT/SNAP within the specified registration window. Many National level MBA entrance exams like CAT, XAT close their registration process in September and November respectively. Usually CAT registration process remains open for 45 to 50 days.

The next step towards pursuing management courses like PGDM/MBA from top MBA colleges must appear in CAT, XAT, NMAT or other relevant entrance exam.

Shortlisting Process

After the results of MBA exam are declared, most of the top B-schools shortlists the suitable candidates for final admission round. This is done on the basis of exam scores, academics, diversity, work experience among other parameters as per the respective B-school admission policy and weightage criterion. The process is completed by each institute individually.

All the shortlisted candidates shall have to appear in the Group Discussion (GD), Written Ability Test (WAT) followed by Personal Interview (PI). Some of the B-schools like FMS will conduct GD & Extempore before PI round while few other like MDI will conduct GD-PI and a few like IMI will conduct Psychometric test also. Some IIMs like IIM Shillong, IIM Kozhikode also conduct GD round based on the WAT. After the final selection round, a weightage is awarded to entrance scores, academic profile & diversity, work experience and gender diversity, and a final merit list is generated. Based on this merit list, admission offers are made by the respective B-schools to the deserving candidates. Also, a waiting list is prepared which contains the names of the students whose admission offers will be made automatically if few students in the original list offer to back out.

There are thousands of normal colleges also where you can pursue MBA. In many of these colleges you can directly get admission. Since our economy is doing very well you can with little effort land up with a good job to start with. But according to me and if you are a risk averse person, I would suggest you do a proper research on which type of course and which university you want yourself to land in.

All the very best!!
