Individual confirmation emails are not sent. Once the shortlisting is done everyone will receive an email from IIM A stating that there is an update on your application status. You can then login to your application portal where you can see if you have been shortlisted or not.
Also the essay topics will be visible for the shortlisted candidates in the portal.
Good luck.

The PGPX Round 2 applications portal is OPEN now; and will be open till October 24th 2019.

IIM A does a first round of selection based on profiles. Remember to present an accurate picture of your profile, highlight achievements and refrain from using excessive jargon. A key point to remember is that any exaggeration or false information on your profile can be easily spotted by the admissions committee.

All the Best.

Regards,
Tridisha
