Hi All/Experts,

I have a question ................... for IIM C last date for accepting the offer of admission for R2 is 28th Nov, so I believe waiting list will move on 29th November.................my question is those who accepts the offer by 28th Nov and let's say that they got to know on 15th dec that they got an admit from IIM A as well in R2..............since they have already accepted the offer of admission from IIM C then how the waiting list will move in this case ?

The expectation is that anyone not willing to join even after the withdrawal deadline is over informs the admissions office of their decision. In that case, they make an offer to WL. Otherwise, they’d get to know when the 2nd installment doesn’t reach their a/c around 15th Mar, and contact the candidates to confirm. Even if someone doesn’t report to the school on the registration day, an offer would be made to the top WL candidates in a rolling order.

Within the withdrawal deadline, yes. After the deadline, no. But either way, it is best to let the school know of your decision to withdraw so that some WL candidate gets the good news a bit quicker. That wait can be very excruciating for a candidate. More so as they get closer to the registration dates.

Hi guys, got offer from IIM C with PSU experience and 700 GMAT. Interview went for around 20 min. Discussion and few cross questions around why mba. And discussion on who will form next govt, developments in the country and my state. You can pm me if you want any help or doubts.

I took mock interviews from prepshape. They almost simulated the real interview and the feedback really helped me to have clarity.

I Got this message - Sorry! You are not in the first list of successful candidates to whom an offer for admission to the 18th batch of the MBAEx programme has been made. We shall let you know in case any vacancy arises.

Is this message for waitlisted applicants? Please don't guess the answer.

Hi All, I am a bit of confused over the point that at mba.com the program displayed for IIM C is Post Graduate Program for Executives, whereas the name of the program on official website is MBAEx. Do we need to select "Post Graduate Program for Executives" on mba.com ?

Enter program code " 9CP-HT-99 " and hit enter, program should get selected , I guess

Also, Old name of MBAEx program is Post graduation program for Executives only ( short form was PGPEx )
So, you are mostly guessing right. Post graduate..... Is right name for MBAEx

In Career Summary of IIM C application form, do I need to give details of each designation I have held in a company. If I have held 4 designation within span of 8 years, then do I need to add 4 tabs and add details or do I have to mention details in single tab?
