Guys, I've got mail stating that I've been shortlisted for PGDM-HC. My GDPI date is 02 Mar, Center- IIFT, Delhi.
I have few questions:
1. What's the scope of PGDM-HC?
2. what would be he min-max package?
3. How much deviation or diff is there in PGDM & PGDM-HC.

Little help will be appreciated. 😃 😃

All those who are asking about Re-Scheduling -->


Please relax and wait for 2/3 days. If there is any possibility of re-scheduling, you will be informed.

As per trends of past years, one could reschedule their GD/PI either to Goa Center or reschedule their GD/PI along with Feb CMAT Candidates at Goa Center.
