mltr2018 . I am inclined to think so. I have just touched 10 years experience level.
May be the college thought that there is nothing that it can add to higher experienced profiles.

I have 5 years experience but still didn't get a call so 10 years criteria might not be true.

Hello Guys,

Those who are not shortlisted I am sure other colleges are waiting for you. Based on my knowledge IIM B EPGP is focusing on applicants with 5-10 yrs exp. Infact they are more interested with folks having <7 yrs exp. I think they now want to target ISB target group of applicants with 5-7 years. Applicant who have IT background are generally demanded higher exp(7-8) where as those who have other background are required less (manufacturing, finance, merchant navy, consulting etc).

Also they are quite strict on GMAT as well. Last Year batch range was 680-780. Hope this helps.

I got short-listed. Work Exp 5.5 years(5 years international), GMAT- 730.

that doesn't make sense, as there are some to many folks with ~5 years work ex who got calls...

Really looks like IIMB EPGP doesn't prefer candidates with higher work ex (9+)...
I think this trend started just last year as prior to that folks with 10+ work exp were selected
I also read a Quora post regarding some one who got into IIMA & ISB & not IIMB

If this is indeed true, sorry to say, IIMB application is not holistic and sucks for an applicant

Good profile. However you can really help your cause by bumping your GMAT score by 20 points. This is particularly important for IIM B. Also if targeting US schools I would highly recommend you bump up the score by 20-30 points to give yourself shot at top 20 schools. You need to target top 20 to justify your experience and investment. Just my opinion. Good Luck!
