MBA Entrance Exam

RedVersity does not consider any entrance exams such as CAT or MAT for the admission to PGCM-PRHC. The institute considers merit based admission with a minimum aggregate in the previouse examination. Candidates must qualify group discussion and personal interview after the entrance based clearance. Furthermore, the final admission will be granted after the counselling process ends.

The final IIM admission result after IIM shortlist and WAT-PI is announced in April and May for all 20 IIMs. All the institutes release the final list of selected candidates individually and send admission letters to candidates via email. When the candidates receive the selection letter, they confirm admission by accepting the offer of admission letter and paying the admission fee.

The admission panel examines all the applications and then shortlist some candidates for WAT-PI round. Selected candidates are informed about date and venue of the WAT-PI round via email. Final selection is based on candidate's performance in WAT-PI and other parameters.

CAT exam score has the weightage of about 40-60 per cent in IIM shortlist. The weightage varies for each IIM but is in the range of 40-60 per cent. Rest of the weightage is divided between academics, gender and work experience. However, in the final shortlist, weightage of CAT score is less than that of WAT-PI.
