There is a high chance for waitlist confirmation. As withdrawal date is 16th people getting selected for IIMA PGPX will definitely create some space

Well, so iim C doesn’t give a waitlist number. So it’s very difficult to know how many are waiting before you and after you. Hence, it’s extremely difficult for waitlist candidates to keep waiting. Wailist does clear quite a bit, but you can never be sure

Your profile looks good to go. your 12th marks should not impact you much. You have moved from technology to your own business and now moving to MBA, so your why MBA should be very strong. your life story should also be coherent and related well. You have a good chance provided your application and essays are top-notch. DM us for assistance or to discuss further on your candidature.

Hi Ishan! Nothing much changed over the course of 1 yr. Although, I mentioned spikes in my profile in the form of conducting Lok Sabha elections as a Presiding Officer, participating as the lead Inspector in a big IT Search & Seizure operation, and helping 2 underprivileged girls with their vocational education.

Also, I was able to write a more convincing SOP and prepared better for the interview this time.

Probably, all these factors helped to clinch the admit this time.

Seniors have told that a good number of waitlists will be converted. And it will be on rolling basis, means after each round. But since they have not assigned waitlist number, chance of conversion of a particular wait list is tough to predict.

Things will be clear by the end of this month hopefully
