@kuloth For IIM Ranchi you need to fill a form. Please check other institute sites. No need to fill any form for IIM Raipur.

Cutoff will be higher than the eligibility criteria.

Oh!! what a fantastic selection policy with no consideration for individual boards and the leniency of marking. Now, as per this, a UP board topper who gets around 83% will have to be content with a score of 3.5/5 in 10th and a 7/10 in 12th, while an average TN/AP board guy who can very easily score 92+ will enjoy 20/20. Same goes for the 2nd/3rd rung engineering colleges where people score in the high 80's and 90's and people from NSIT/DCE/IIT's have to struggle for being in the 70's range. HAIL!!! the policy. God knows how they will teach us management when they are themselves so mismanaged.
@Madhav45 what was the avg. package for 2012 batch?

anbeshivam: Thank you Boss, will check

Hi,

How to register for the mentorship program? Any help for the WAT/PI is highly appreciated.

Madhav45: The mail says...
You have been shortlisted for Written Analysis Test (WAT) and Personal Interview (PI) of PGDM Programme of all or some of the six new IIMs (Kashipur, Raipur, Ranchi, Rohtak, Trichy, and Udaipur). Please visit IIM Raipur €™s website to check the details.
As it is mentioned in the admission policy, WAT & PI scores of the shortlisted candidates who are common with some of the older IIMs will be directly collected from them. We are hopeful of receiving the relevant details from the older IIMs by 25 January, 2013.
Once IIM Raipur has all this information, you will receive an e-mail for Login details.
