Does Welingkar shortlist candidates based on their profiles or percentile? I got 38 percentile. Will they call me?
Asked about Prin. L. N. Welingkar Institute of Management Development and Research, Mumbai - Master of Management Studies (MMS)
I am having good profile overall in academics.

They call you on the basis of profile but your percentile is a part of it. For PGDM courses, this is the process. But, to be honest, your score is very low to get called. For MMS, the cut-off last year was 97.143.

Hello! Welingkar shortlists the candidates on the basis of their overall profile and not just the percentile scores. And it is impossible to get an interview call at that low score. I suggest you reappear for the various MBA entrance exams and aim for a much higher score. It will surely benefit you since you claim to have a good profile. Good luck! -
There is no cutoff for the programs. Welingkar has a unique profile based selection process which does not believe in cut-offs or percentiles alone. It assigns significant value to previous academic performances, extra-curricular activities, work experience, GD-PI tests along with the written test scores of the applicable entrance exams.

No, they will never call you for MMS course, because MMS is under Mumbai University & admission procedure is followed by DTE. So, it is better for you to concentrate on MAH_CET exam, if you are looking for MMS. -
Welingkar shortlist mostly on the basis of percentile. But for the PGDM courses, you can surely opt for the college which is followed by GD-PI sessions. For MMS it's a little bit tough since it requires a good MH CET score. It's good to know you have a strong academic profile but then selection criteria is on the basis of percentile for MMS. If you wish to take PGDM, you can surely give the best try! All the best! -
Welingkar shortlists people based on the overall scores in GD-PI, percentile and also academics. A combined score is what they look at but 38 percentile is a bit too low. There is less chance but you can still try.
