Advisory
According to Prof S K Agarwal, mentor on CAT preparation delaying the admission without any concrete ground may result in missing the bus. Instead choose your pick out of the 6 IIMs. Your future is secured with an IIM and by the time you pass out after 2 years, you may get another surprise that all these IIMs have started awarding MBA degree instead of PGDM as MHRD is ready with a bill to be tabled in Parliament on this issue.
