The final selection is based on a Composite Score. The weightage is distributed as follows: CAT/XAT/GMAT (35%), MICAT Score (25%), Group Exercise (10%), and Personal Interview (20%). The remaining 10% is split between Academic Performance (10th, 12th, and Graduation - 5%) and Extra-curricular activities/Diversity (5%). Candidates must also meet a minimum qualifying score in the GE (typically 3.5/5) and PI (typically 4/5) to be considered for the final offer.
