What is the eligibility criteria for an MA in economics admission at DU?
There are two main ways to get admission to the Delhi School of Economics (232 seats): direct admission (50%) and entrance test (50%): -
-
Direct Admission (116 seats) - Any applicant who has previously completed a B.A. (Hons.) in Economics from the University of Delhi with a minimum of 60% marks is eligible to apply in this category. Admissions under this category, on the other hand, are given to those who have had a very good academic record during their graduation. This admissions category is similar to the undergraduate cutoff system.
-
Entrance Test (116 seats) - Anyone with a 60% average in graduation/postgraduate studies (any subject from any recognised university) is eligible to take the entrance test.
How much of the percentage in boards and marks in JEE (Mains) are required to get admission in IET-DAVV?
The Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) at Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) considers both the board exam percentage and the JEE Main score for admission to its undergraduate programs in engineering. However, the minimum eligibility criteria for admission to IET-DAVV may vary from year to year and also depend on the category of the student.
Here are some general guidelines:
- Board exam percentage: Generally, a student must have a minimum of 60% to 75% marks in their 10+2 or equivalent examination from a recognized board or university. However, the required percentage may vary depending on the category of the student and the specific branch of engineering they wish to pursue.
- JEE Main score: Students must also appear for JEE Main and obtain a valid score. Again, the required score may vary depending on the category of the student and the branch of engineering they wish to pursue.
Meeting the minimum eligibility criteria does not guarantee admission to IET-DAVV. Admission is granted based on merit and the availability of seats in the preferred branch of engineering. It's always a good idea to check the official website of IET-DAVV or contact the admission office for the latest information on eligibility criteria and admission procedures.
Can I apply to a DU college in the second cut off even if I was eligible for the first cut off but did not take admission at that time?
Yes, you can still apply for college admission. All you need to do is bring all necessary documents, but keep in mind that you will be marked as a Defaulter (a Defaulter student fails to appear in the previous cut-off when he was meeting the requirements).
According to University Regulations, a defaulter can only take admission on the third day of that particular cut-off.
You should go to the college where you want to enroll on the first day and follow the admissions procedure. You are suggested not to tell any teacher about the same because teachers sometimes forget to check if students are defaulters or not. If anyone gets to know, then you will have to come back again on the third day of admission.

Will people be eligible to apply for PGDM BM at XLRI, Jamshedpur if one has secured less than 50% in their graduation?
Having friends at XLRI, I can only suggest you keep in mind these few facts if you're passionate about getting into any high-quality B-School.
- Understand that people at B-Schools care about your marks very seriously.
- The competition level at any B-School would be so intense that the panel would not just consider people with a great academic background. They would take a month/year's work experience into consideration, too.
The status that XLRI or any great B-School carries would not be put at risk by admitting candidates who do not have a quality academic background. You have to at least maintain a minimum of the criteria that these institutes demand.
- Recruiters that approach these reputed B-Schools for placements belong to different firms. For instance- Finance (Citibank, SoftBank, Goldman Sachs Group); Consulting (PWC, BCG, McKenzie); Marketing (P&G, Nestlé, HUL), and others.
- These companies check the candidate's academic background.
- The minimum percentage level they take into consideration for shortlisting is 60% at the graduation level. If your score is beyond that and you have been a university topper, it would be a plus.
Because of the reputation factor, FMS/XLRI/SPJIMR, etc. would not put their reputation at stake by admitting students with a poor academic background. Therefore, instead of focusing on that, it will be wise to focus and perform well in other exams like - MICAT, NMAT, SNAP, IIFT, CAT, XAT so that you can get a call from any one of the top 20 B-Schools of India.
Despite a 50% score in your graduation, you still think about getting into a reputed institute like XLRI. This shows how much faith you carry in yourself.
What is the minimum percentile for making it to HRM in XLRI (not for getting a call?)
The first thing you need to understand is that there is no specific percentile that helps you make it to HRM for XLRI.
One of my friends was around 94.53, while ten to twenty of his batchmates had a percentile of 95-96. But, nothing is static. As these percentile stats change every year.
- If you perform well in GD and your interview, you'd have higher chances to get into the institute.
- While passing from one section to another- if you, unfortunately, do not perform well in even one of these sections, it can directly affect your percentile, lowering the chances of getting into the institute.
My friend struggled when he didn't perform well at the VA round, scoring a percentile of just 70. He wasn't even clearing his cut-off because of which he could not make it.
Can I do MBA from IIM Ahmedabad after BSc?
Honestly, anyone with a decent profile can pursue MBA from IIM Ahmedabad. The question is how well you can score in your CAT. Anything below 96 is not accepted.
Another tip that will help you get selected for MBA from IIM Ahmedabad is to make good use of your Bachelor years. You can:
-
Study Economics and Business alongside BSc
-
Participate in National & University level Business Case Study Competitions
-
Enhance your English speaking skills
To prepare for the interviews, read newspapers, articles and essays on current economic issues. Lastly, answer all the questions confidently.
Do you know anyone who got into a top b-school (IIMs, XLRI, JBIMS, NM, IIFT, FMS etc.) with average UG percentage?
Yes, I do know a friend who managed to get calls from many top B Schools despite having an average Undergraduate Score. Her profile looked like this
- 10th- 76%
- 12th- 68%
- UG- 64%
Although her marks witnessed a gradual decline, she was lucky enough to study at XLRI. Past academics are considered as one but not the major factors at XLRI, unlike IIMs that focus a lot on past academics. A good XAT and GD-PI score can compensate for your poor academic record at XLRI, FMS, and JBIMS. NITIE is a top B School that does not consider past academics at all. My friend with her average profile managed to convert NITIE, XIMB, and all the IIMs except for the top ones obviously. So we can safely assume that admission into these top B Schools is possible even with an average profile provided that you score excellently in the CAT or XAT and the GDPI round.
What is the percentile required to get into ISB Hyderabad?
In case you are enquiring about the CAT percentile let me clarify that ISB Hyderabad does not take into consideration CAT scores. It accepts GMAT/GRE scores only. Most importantly, the ISB Shortlisting process is profile-based. This means even with a lower percentile you can manage to get shortlisted provided you have an excellent profile.
There is no fixed cutoff for GMAT. However, a 700+ GMAT score isn't a must-have for ISB if your application is strong in other areas. According to an ISB spokesperson, candidates were admitted to the 2021 cohort with scores as low as 580, and as high as 780. So the GMAT score range for ISB is 580-780.
