I attempted payment 4 times. Every time the amount gets deducted, I am redirected to a blank screen. The form doesn't get submitted. I have emailed this query to admissions office too. I request that some action may please be taken as the deadline is on 30th

I have also paid twice and there is no submit button on the portal.

I have written to the adcom. Hope it gets sorted.

Called multiple times on landline as well, but no one responds. May be everyone working remotely.

Can someone from the adcom/student committee look into this on priority?

Same issue. I made the payment. I didn't even get any confirmation and again it is asking to pay the application fee.

Hi everyone,

I am applying to IIMC MBAEx and was wondering where to write our achievements in professional domain as they have space for writing roles only. Should I highlight achievements in the same field?

Thanks in advance

I hope the issues regarding application completion acknowledgment are over. We had confirmed with the back end team regarding submission completion.

Hello Everyone,

We are having some minor issues with the payment gateway. We are working on top priority to resolve it.
We will ensure that no candidate is penalised due to their inability to submit their online application within the deadline due to technical issues with the payment gateway.
In the event of any candidate having problems submitting the online application due to technical issues the data involving the failure will be recorded in our system logs and we will consider all such cases.

Thanks,

Team SAC, IIMC

Hi Guys,
Done with my MBAEx interview today.

The Panelist straightforwardly started the interview with my GMAT Score and how does GMAC calculate percentile.
Next question was if we add your individual scores in Verbal and Quants ( 36 & 50), they don't add up to 710. So, how has been the final score calculated?
How is percentile calculated and then gave me a scenario to calculate percentile of a student.

Then the second panelist referred to my application and asked me questions on my attempts at UPSC Civil Services exam.
He then asked the difference between Administration and Management, Polity and Politics and how will I be able to use my professional skills through and after MBA.

That was all guys. Seems like I have messed it up. But for now, keeping my fingers crossed.

Regards

Results will be out on Oct 16th. I think they'll compare us with R2 candidates. That's why they are taking much longer time

I guess results will be declared much earlier. That's because the original schedule of having the interviews on 10-11th October has been changed to 12-13th September. And the result declaration date, as per the original schedule was 17th Oct.
Last year too, after conducting interview on 19th Oct, results of MBAEx were out on 28th Oct.
