may apply for prospectus and application forms. On receipt
of duly filled application forms, the institutes issue
test admit cards which entitles the candidate to take
the entrance test.
The Prospectus for various institutes are priced anywhere
between Rs. 300/- to Rs. 1000/-. Most of the institutes
include the examination fee in this price. However some
may ask for additional amount as examination fee. Considering
the high cost of appearing for an entrance test, it
is advised that students must plan out in advance about
which exams they would like to take up seriously and
fill up only those forms. Written
Test
The first phase of selection of candidates for admission
to the Masters / Post-Graduate Diploma in Management
is on the basis of their performance in a Written Test.
This seeks to test the aptitude of the candidates in
four major areas - Verbal Ability, Reading Comprehension,
Quantitative Ability and Business Data Interpretation.
Some institutes also ask Business and General Awareness
questions while some may include an essay writing section.
Group
Discussion & Interview
After the entrance exam every institute shortlists candidates
for qualitative assessment which mainly includes two
stages. Group
Discussion. Personal
Interview. IIM
Bangalore also has a test on essay writing. SP
Jain Mumbai has a Group Interview. XLRI
Jamshedpur only has an Interview and no GD. FMS
Delhi also has an extempore speech as part of the selection
process.
Leadership abilities, good grasp, analytical thought
process, communication skills and other personality
attributes are assessed via this stage of selection.
Final selection is based on assessment based on marks
in the written exam, the Group Discussions and Personal
Interview. Work experience is given additional weightage
at most of the institutes. |
