GIBS accepts only the CAT and MAT scores that fall within the current admission cycle, meaning these should be the results from the most recent exam year. For CAT, the score is generally valid for one admission year, meaning the CAT exam taken in 2024 is considered valid for admissions in 2025. Likewise, the MAT score is valid for a year, and GIBS accepts only the latest MAT scores among attempts conducted during the same admission cycle. Therefore, applicants must be aware that their CAT or MAT score must be of the latest exam session relevant to the year they are applying for.

GIBS keeps the syllabus super up-to-date and practical. They don't stick to old-school theory — they keep changing things based on what's happening in the business world right now.

They call industry speakers, do guest talks, workshops, IRE sessions, live projects… so we end up learning things companies actually look for. Whenever new trends come in (like analytics, digital tools, finance trends, marketing updates), they update the curriculum accordingly.

Basically, GIBS makes sure what we study is actually useful outside the classroom — and that's why the learning feels fresh and relevant.

For PGDM in Finance at GIBS, the mark requirement is actually very simple.

You just need to have 50% marks in your bachelor's degree — that's the basic eligibility for the PGDM program.

GIBS doesn't ask for any very high cutoff. What they see more is:

  • your academics,

  • your entrance score,

  • your SOP,

  • your GD/PI performance, and

  • your interest in finance.

So as long as you have 50% and a genuine interest in finance, you're good to apply. GIBS is quite supportive and gives students a fair chance.
