IIM Trichy reveals CAT 2016 cut off

Indian Institute of Management Tiruchirappalli (also known as IIM Trichy) has announced its admission policy for Post Graduate Programme (PGP) batch of 2017-1019. IIM T will use CAT 2016 percentile for shortlisting the candidates for WAT and PI.

 

This year, CAT has been scheduled for December 4, 2016 and IIM T has assigned 50% weightage to the same. Written Ability Test and Personal Interview each hold 15% weightage. This year, the institute has planned to have the batch size of 180 students for PGP 2017-19.

 

IIM Tiruchirappalli’s 2017-19 admission process will be based on a candidate’s performance in CAT 2016, Written Ability Test (WAT) and Personal Interview (PI); educational record and relevant work experience (if any). Here’s IIM Trichy’s shortlisting criteria for PI & WAT:
