New IIMs Common Admission Process 2014 to reduce burden on candidates

This year CAT candidates have a better chance of getting into IIMs in comparison to last year as the 13 IIMs have altogether added more than hundred seats for admission year 2014, taking the total tally to 3335 seats, across 13 IIMs.

MBAUniverse.com estimates that more than 15,000 students are likely to get a call from IIMs for Personal Interview round.

Chairperson of Admissions, IIM Tiruchirappalli Prof. Hari Sreekumar said, “The new IIMs have confirmed that they will be collectively calling 10,000 candidates for their 800 seats”. New IIMs refer to IIM Tiruchirappalli, IIM Rohtak, IIM Ranchi, IIM Raipur, IIM Kashipur, IIM Udaipur. Seven older IIMs will however follow their own process, each calling approximately 2000-4000 candidates.

For example, IIM Indore has announced that it will be calling 4510 candidates for its 451 seats. Many candidates are likely to get multiple calls. In the end, more than 15000 candidates will end up getting interview calls to IIMs. This will in fact mirror the top 10% of the CAT test takers – which are approx 17,000 in number.

Other IIMs like IIM B, IIM C and IIM Indore are expected to come out with their shortlist very soon.
