Hello all,

I am creating this thread for discussions related to Asian Institute of Management (AIM) 2011 admissions. I tried to search thread for AIM 2011, but couldn't find one.

This discussion board is aimed to cover anything and everything related to AIM, Manila. Starting from the application, essays, GD, interviews, fees, reputation, faculty, GMAT score, AIMT test, recommendation letters, placements, ROI, comparison with other B schools, life at AIM, peer network, course containt etc.

Please share your thoughts and experience. Also, people who are already at AIM or those who have applied at AIM in past please do contribute to this thread.

I am planning to apply this year. I have already got the application form in hard-copy from the institute's Mumbai office. Now I am in the process of getting the letter of recommendation done from college & writing essays.

I did my B.Tech. in Production Engineering (2008 ) from College of Engineering, Pune & now working with Tata Motors. I have total work ex of 28 months till November 2010.

Hope to hear from you all.

Regards,

Harshal

@mayankmirani: It's great to hear that you have already cleared AIMAT. Could you just share your ideas/ experience about cut off & short listing for AIMAT? I appeared of the same on 5th Dec 2010. It was good. But I personally found it bit lengthy.

@Tomahawke: Hello Pratik. Yeah, it seems that we will have to wait till 1st week of Feb 2011 for result. Man, I'm still struggling for academic reco. Hope I'll manage to submit application by 31st Dec.

Dats k if you can't get the academic reco...even i cudn't...so I spoke to Damodar and he said 2 Prof recos wud do...hope dat wrks for u :grin:

@harshalmate - As per AIM policy, AIM doesn't reveal the cutoff marks and its shortlisting. However i personally feel that those you have got good marks in Quants should stand a good chance for i/v call.

Btw it would be really nice if seniors at AIM could throw some light on placements of class of 2010.
