It was not informed because it is NOT the case. Read my post 2187 carefully.
Anyone with a score above the XAT cutoff is fully eligible for IMT-G.
I said the first call will not be through XAT means that there will be another list soon, on the basis of XAT scores - it just means that your GD-PIs will be in a few days later slot.
So why r u trying to sensationalise the thread by misinterpreting?
If u don't want to go to the other 2 campuses then don't go - who's forcing you?
@lohitgupta Boss its not a case of sensationalising the thread..wat u have mentioned is that thru xat we will be initially applicabe for nagpur and hyderabed campus..isnt it?so doesnt that automatically create a confusion..as to wat is exatly mean by it.....tell me something isnt the process expected to club all the scores of the applications togeher irrespective of which exams he is applying thru and then select the candidates..if the process is already such i aplogise..but if it isnt i have all d right to ask y dis disparity?
@lohitgupta Hi mate, Just a small query. If IMT G cut off is 90 %ile, then i'll get a call through CAT Score (CAT score 91.26), right? Now, I have 71.xx %ile in XAT, I have mentioned my XAT ID, what if i don't upload XAT score, to avoid the risk of being considered for IMT NGP/HYD/DUBAI? Would that create a problem?
Another query: Last year, separate calls were given for IMT NGP/HYD/Dubai and IMT G. So, has that scenario changed this year? If the process is clubbed, then IMT-G aspirants would be forced to compete with

I never said that through XAT you will be eligible for Nagpur and Hyd campus only.

"iii) Some of you with a poorer CAT score might get a call for Nagpur/Hyderabad campus initially. Again, don't panic and DEFINITELY ATTEND THE INTERVIEW FOR THE SAME. Later on, if your XAT score is good, you will be considered for Ghaziabad campus also. (And your specialization preferences for the now-converted IMT-G call will be taken from you later.) "

There - does that make it clearer?

In fact, it's an option where IMT attempts to give everyone an even chance.
We have the following possibilities:
a) You get a good CAT score and get the campus call you want.
b) You couldn't do well in CAT - you didn't get a call for IMT at all OR you got a call under the Nagpur or Hyderabad campus.

Attend the interview. The interview is a standardised metric, used across all campuses.
LAter, when your XAT results are considered -
c) you didn't get a call at all earlier - but now you get one.
d) you got a call for Nagpur/Hyd earlier, attended the interview - but your XAT score is good enf to qualify you for a Ghaziabad convert - then your XAT score will be considered for final evaluation and Not the CAT score.

Let's make one thing very clear - IMT is Not forcing you to join any campus. The choice is up to you. We have 1 common Evaluation process for admission to all campuses and the same application lets you enter different entrance exam scores as well.
There are confusions, the process is not very smooth, I agree.

And I'll try my best to clear out those confusions - but if you all lose your patience and blatantly start blame-gaming and create more confusion, without bothering to clarify a few things, then this thread will lose its meaning. Kindly cooperate.

@lohitgupta

@dear lohit,

@i agree with tuhin.sarkar.

" class="mention_link" data-sigil="mention" data-user-id="503878">@ur post is ambiguous and these points were nowhere mentioned by imt-g at the time of filling-up the application forms. kindly clarify point no. iii as posted by you to avoid further confusion and misinterpretation-->

@ iii) Some of you with a good XAT score but poor CAT score might get a call for Nagpur/Hyderabad campus. Again, don't panic and DEFINITELY ATTEND THE INTERVIEW FOR THE SAME. Later on, if your XAT score is good, you will be considered for Ghaziabad campus also. (And your specialization preferences for the now-converted IMT-G call will be taken from you later.)

somebody with good xat score MIGHT get a call from imt- n or h. again next line reads if xat score is good, u wl b considered for imt-g also?

pl. dont tk it otherwise.

kindly clarify n throw some light on last year's so called 'GOOD' score of xat in which one was considered for imt-g.

moreover clarify the fact y imt-g doesnot star in the LIST OF B-SCHHOLS CONSIDERING XAT SCORE in XAT's official website?



@lohitgupta Dat clears a lot of things...thanks man...i aplogise for being blatant but i hope u understand what prevailed me to do that..Thanks nevertheless..:)

It is not mandatory for you to upload your XAT scorecard.

I said 90 was a XAT cutoff for IMT last year. You want me to give you a number - I can't give you. No percentile can guarantee you a convert. After the call, it's up to you - your profile, GD-PI performance, etc.
About the XAT score - look I'm not sure how the tie up with XAT works.
Us not featuring in their list is exactly why you have to upload your XAT scores separately.
Rest assured, there are a lot of my batchmates who converted on the basis of their XAT scores. :)

On the confusion regarding low CAT scores and high XAT scores, I could suggest something.
This is what I have done -
I went and edited the IMT application and removed my CAT Registration number from it.
So, I would get a call based on just my XAT score and not to IMT Hyd/Nagpur campus based on my CAT score. I don't know how good a solution this is to the confusion, but this is what I thought best.

@lohitgupta Yup cool..one more thing boss..wat was the cut off for nagpur and hyderabd cat scores last yr..in that way a bit of specuation can be made on the timelines of the interview

mate, visit their threads for that. I've included those links in my earlier long post.

Dekho, the CAT calls are already in process. So editing the form now will not make a difference.

a) As I have already repeated, you will have to upload your XAT/GMAT scores through the admissions portal.This facility on the portal is not up yet - will be up in a day or two- Please be patient.
Link for admissions portal at http://sis.imtcdl.ac.in/ia/Candidatelogin.aspx
b) GD-PI shortlists - Again, expected in the next 1 or 2 days. Please read the following explanation carefully.

i)The first PART of the GD-PI shortlist will be up only on the basis of CAT results only.
The second part of the list, based on XAT/GMAT will come up a few days later – after those scores have been uploaded and processed – all it means is that the XAT/GMAT interviews will start a few days after the first GD-PI processes start.

ii) The emails for the same will be sent out phase-wise - first for a few centres, then later on for the other centres. So don't panic if you have a good score and you don't get a call in the first release of Gd-PI emails.

iii) Some of you with a poorer CAT score might get a call for Nagpur/Hyderabad campus initially. Again, don't panic and DEFINITELY ATTEND THE INTERVIEW FOR THE SAME. Later on, if your XAT score is good, you will be considered for Ghaziabad campus also. (And your specialization preferences for the now-converted IMT-G call will be taken from you later.)

iv) If you have not given CAT but only XAT/GMAT – you will not get a call in the first list but later on.

So what it means is that you will NOT get 2 interview calls. But for final evaluation, your best score will be taken.

So, so sum up, We have the following possibilities:
a) You get a good CAT score and get the campus call you want.
b) You couldn't do well in CAT - you didn't get a call for IMT at all OR
c) Based on your CAT score, you got a call under the Nagpur or Hyderabad campus.

Do attend the interview. The interview is a standardised metric, used across all campuses.
Later, when your XAT results are considered -
d) you didn't get a call at all earlier - but now you get one.
e) you got a call for Nagpur/Hyd earlier, attended the interview - but your XAT score is good enough to qualify you for a Ghaziabad convert - then your XAT score will be considered for final evaluation and Not the CAT score.

Let's make one thing very clear - IMT is Not forcing you to join any campus. The choice is up to you.
c) Specialisation preferences – you will have to provide these later, in a separate form – when you get a GD-PI call.
d) CMAT queries - see point 8 below.

Collated reply to common queries:
0) Read this -http://imt.edu/Admissions/FAQ.aspx
http://www.imt.edu/downloadfiles/mandatorydisclosure.pdf
1) GD-PI shortlists were out by Jan end last year and the processes started by Feb 2nd week.

2) CAT scores will be automatically fetched. XAT scores will have to be uploaded thru the admissions portal. When and how, you will be told soon.

3) Cutoffs for a call - 90 percentile for CAT and XAT, 650 for GMAT – LAST YEAR.(NO SECTIONAL CUTOFFS) – for IMT-Ghaziabad. Only the entrance test score matters, for a GD-PI call.

4) GD-PI centre- Ghaziabad, Nagpur, Hyderabad, Bhopal, Mumbai, Bangalore, Kolkata. No requests for change of centres will be entertained.

5) There will be just ONE interview call. Whether you make it on CAT/XAT/GMAT score - after that, your BEST score will be considered for final call.

6) Placements - Other than the report available on the website, we don't have any info.

7) Dubai and DCP queries :

@lohitgupta now it's pretty clear.

thanks man.

@lohitgupta : I got ur point on the GD-PI call ..but my question is
I have applied to IMT G only . Whether this application stands for IMT H & N also ? or there are some separate admission entries ?

there are no separate applications for IMT N and H. Its just one application form.
