IIFT 2020 cut offs for MBA (IB) admission 2020 will be changed substantially due to changes in the IIFT exam pattern and scoring pattern.
It is expected that the IIFT 2020 cut offs for MBA (IB) admission 2020 will be somewhere between 115-120 marks out of total 300. However, the shortlisting by IIFT will depend upon the sectional cut offs. If a candidate does not clear the sectional cut off, he/she will not be considered for shortlisting by IIFT for any of its three campuses
Important Changes influencing IIFT 2020 Cut offs
IIFT cut offs are based on the IIFT 2020 exam difficulty level, IIFT scoring pattern, total number of candidates taking the test, and the total intake in the three campuses of Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT). The IIFT 2020 exam had moderate difficulty level. The expected IIFT cut offs for MBA (IB) 2020-22 are therefore to increase accordingly. Following changes in IIFT 2020 exam have influenced the IIFT cut off predictions:
- IIFT 2020 Exam sections reduced to 4 from earlier 6
- Exam difficulty level has gone down
- Scoring pattern changed with 300 maximum marks from 100 marks
- 3 sections with scoring pattern of +3 marks for each correct answer and -1 for each wrong answer
- GK section with lowest scoring pattern of +1.5 mark for each right answer and -0.50 mark for each wrong answer
- Sectional cut offs have changed accordingly
- Out of 39572 total registered candidates, fewer than 35000 appeared in IIFT entrance exam,
IIFT MBA (IB) 2020 entrance exam was conducted by National testing Agency on December 1, 2019 as a computer based test. Total intake in all the IIFT campuses is 420. IIFT 2020 exam result date is December 11, 2019. On the basis of their performance in IIFT entrance exam and with the help of IIFT Percentile predictors, candidates may check their IIFT cut offs for the three IIFTcampuses.
Cut offs are higher for Delhi campus followed by Kolkata and Kakinada campuses. The cut offs could go up or down in accordance with the difficulty level in the exam.
