The Indian Institute of Management Jammu (IIM Jammu) and the Indian Institute of Management Sirmaur (IIM Sirmaur) will not be conducting any interview for selection of candidates for their PGP in the session 2017-2019 batches.
These newly set up IIM campuses, mentored by IIM Lucknow, released their admission criteria for the upcoming batch and mentioned the minimum cutoff percentage and composite score formula for the admission into their institutions. Their admission policies also clearly mentioned that no interview will be conducted. Those candidates who had applied for the institutes at the time of CAT 2016 registrations, will be selected on the basis of their CAT score and other factors, calculated together.
Interestingly, Admission criteria for both the campuses are same and hence the weightage granted to form the constituents of the composite score. The institutes as expected will start releasing admission offers to selected students from last week of May 2017.
