Not able to login. Still same error. So those who have got mail are shortlisted for interview or everyone has got mail irrespective of shortlist.? Posted from my mobile device
The language looks generic.

The discussion would be much shorter than IIMB as most of the time would go in the extempore and its discussion. If you’re fairly aware of the world around, you’re already prepared.

Forget the weightage. It’s not revealed. It shouldn’t matter. Your profile has already been shortlisted, now the focus has to be on the interview.

No documents need to be carried. Just take your ID card.

Some repeat from previous years. Some would be entirely new too. Be aware of major news.

Wrap it up within 150 words if you wish. Nobody would penalize you for it. The form will take whatever is mentioned there.

Hi all, since copy-paste functionality is not there in the portal, are we supposed to write the essays in the box?
Any ways to get around this?

Drag and drop works, or else use google extension "Dont F*** with paste"

*Some quick tips for IIM A Essays*:
1) Be authentic and do not use generic gyaan
2) Read the question carefully and really focus on what the admissions committee is looking for here
3) Do not Lie, the admissions commitee will catch you easily
4) Do not use Gen AI to write your entire essays (content generated by these models can be easily identified)

PM us if you want us to review your essays.
