    There is no weight-age for work experience in majority of IIMs. Students with work experience may get a minor edge during Personal Interview. Admission in IIMs after CAT is based on following criteria:
    (a) GDPI Call: 70% weightage will be given to the scores of CAT and 30% weightage to the Application Rating Score (Xth marks, XIIth marks, Graduation Marks)
    (b) Final Selection: Group Discussion: 10%, Personal Interview: 40%, weightage to the Composite Score at the final stage of selection to arrive at the Aggregate Score: 50%
    Above mentioned weightage vary in different IIMs.
