IIMBEPGP
The website mentions that the work experience be preferably less than 12 years. Does IIMB have a hard cut off at 12 years?
What is the probability of an interview call and admission for an applicant with 12+ years of experience (say 13 or 14 yrs)?

According to the admissions committee, they do not have hard cut off at 12 yrs. This is based on the information shared in EPGP admissions information session held at IIM Bangalore campus.

However, you should focus on how best to present your profile/SOP to improve your chance of being selected.

Hey Guys!!!

R1 admit here, Wishing all the applicants of R-2 all the very best!! Sharing some info that may help you!!

I have utilized the services of AdmitReady for the mock interview with an EPGP alumnus. The alumnus gave me a detailed feedback on my content and delivery of answers that helped me feel a lot more confident for the D-day. The questions asked by the alumnus were in-line with the actual interview and I am happy that I leveraged this mock interview experience at such economical rates.

If you wanna have the best simulation of the interview, I suggest you reach them at admit.ready@gmail.com/+91-8095735801.

Not an advert, just hoping it might help some of you!!
