In view of the prevailing COVID-19 pandemic, the admission committee of the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad has come to a decision to change the qualification level for admission into MBA courses. As per the latest changes made by IIM Ahmedabad, the bachelor’s degree as a criterion for admission to the postgraduate programme (PGPM) for the 2022-24 batch has been scrapped. The Institute will select students on a scale of 25 on the basis of Class 10, Class 12 marks, and the candidate’s work experience.
This decision has been taken by the institute in view of the prevailing COVID-19 situation, which has forced many universities in the last two years to cancel the examinations. The selection committee computed the results for students on the basis of varied alternative criteria. Earlier, the CAT committee had also introduced similar admission criteria for the students as it decided to allow candidates to take the CAT-2021 exams without requiring any minimum percentage of marks in a bachelor’s degree.
