Hello,

I am facing a unique problem while filling the online application. I have overlapping period of 1 week between 2 employments and online application page is not accepting overlapping period.
Company A : 20/11/2010 to 20/02/2015
Company B : from 16/02/2015

Please suggest, how to complete application in such case. My experience letters have the above mentioned date, so if I adjust 1 week period in online application, it can not be verified from available documents.

I have already raised query on 16/05/2017 to pgpxquery@iima.ac.in, yet I did not get any response. How should I proceed for application filling?

Hi,

While filing up the application, it asks whether one has managerial role or not. Can anyone advise whether I can put yes when I m part of leadership team in the program, but doesn't have anyone reporting to me.

The median GMAT score is 700+. However, this is in no way indicative of the minimum/average GMAT score. GMAT score varies widely from year to year and is only one evaluation criteria for intake.
