IIM Kozhikode mentions
that from all the eligible students who register with IIM Kozhikode, a
short-list of students will be prepared based on Aggregate Index Score. This
score is based on performance in CAT 2013, Bachelors degree and other traits
relevant for management education. The Aggregate Index Score calculation
details are given below.
a.Graduation Index Score:
i. For those who completed
their Bachelor’s degree the percentage marks reported in their marks/grade
sheet will be considered.
ii. Percentage marks for
incomplete Bachelor’s degree applicants are based on their available marks.
iii. For those students
having cleared CA/ICWAI/CS without having Bachelor’s degree, their average of
intermediate and final level marks will be treated as Bachelor’s degree marks.
iv. For bachelor’s degree,
the percentage of marks awarded by Institute/University will be treated as
final. If the Institute/University does not award the percentage of marks, it
will be calculated on the basis of the marks obtained in all subjects listed in
the mark sheet.
v. If the percentage of
marks awarded by Institute/University does not take into account marks obtained
in all the subjects as mentioned in the marksheet(s) for all the years, the
students must produce a certificate from the Principal/Head of the
Department/Registrar/Director of the university/institution certifying details
of the practice at the time of the GD/WAT-PI, if short-listed for the same.
vi. If any
Board/Institute/University awards only letter grades without providing an
equivalent percentage of marks on the grade sheet, the candidate should obtain
a certificate from the Board/Institute/University specifying the equivalent
marks. The original equivalence certificate needs to be submitted at the time
of GD/WAT-PI, if short-listed for the same. Obtaining the equivalence
certificate is the responsibility of students.
vii. For students having a
5-year integrated Master's degree, percentage of marks obtained in the first 3
years will be considered as bachelor’s degree.
b. CAT Index Score: Performance in CAT is an
important input in the admission process. Students should note that it is
important to perform well in each section of the test. Scaled Scores from both
the sections (with equal weightages) of CAT 2013 will go in to computation of
CAT Index Score. CAT Index Score will carry a weight of 76%.
c. To ensure diversity, marks will be awarded
for diversity (gender (5%) or academic discipline (2%)) related factors. A
student is entitled to diversity marks from only one factor, whichever is
higher. The non-engineering disciplines are applicable for academic diversity
factor.
d. Previous
work/professional experience will carry a weight of 5%
depending on the length of service as on January 31, 2014. Only managerial work
experience after graduation will be considered. Training/Project work/work
completed as an integral part of curricular requirement will not be considered.
