Important Instruction to Fill Personal Data Form for New IIMs Admissions 2014

 
1. Personal Data form is a key part of the admission process. It is extremely important for the candidate to provide complete and accurate responses.

2. Ensure that your responses tally with the data you have entered in the CAT application form.

3. Applicants are advised to have an active email id.

4. On completion of the first page of the personal data form, candidates will receive a user id and password on the email ids they have provided in the form. These login details can be used to retrieve the form for completion/modification later. However, such modification will be possible only till the date specified in your interview call intimation.

Remember: Candidates can edit the details of their Personal Data Form only up to February 05, 2014 11:59pm

For example, a GPA of 6.5 out of 10.0 would be 65%. In case your university/institute has a separate system to convert grade points to percentages, use that system.

7. After online submission of the form, take a paper printout of the same, and bring it along with other relevant documents/testimonials when you appear for the PI & WAT process.

How to Prepare for CAP 2014
 Answering to a query about what should an aspirant do in case of a clash between a WAT/PI at an older IIM/other institute and Common Admission Process of the new IIMs, Prof. Kumar said, “In genuine cases where there is a clash between a WAT/PI at an older IIM/other institute, and our process, the candidate concerned should get in touch with our Admissions office, well in advance. We will try our best to accommodate such requests by providing alternative dates. However, candidates need to be aware that rescheduling interviews is extremely difficult, so they should approach us only if there is a genuine problem.”  

Prof S K Agarwal, expert and mentor suggests that Candidates who are optimistic of getting shortlisted shouldn’t wait any longer but immediately begin their preparation for WAT and PI. Improving the writing skill is a time consuming job.  Select the hot WAT topics start writing on them one by one. Get the same evaluated, rectify the errors.  Read news papers, periodicals.
