Hyderabad: ICFAI Business School (IBS) is holding the selection process for admissions to MBA/PGPM programmes across its nine campuses from February 15 to 24 at Hyderabad campus.
This year, the process comprises a micro presentation, replacing the traditional group discussion.
The selection process is designed to assess candidates holistically, evaluating their ability to think critically, communicate effectively, and demonstrate leadership potential.
The process:
• Briefing session: Candidates and their parents/guardians have to attend an introductory session with senior directors, recruiters, and alumni. This session will provide insights into IBS and details of the selection process.
• Micro presentation: Each candidate will select a number between 1 and 100, which will determine the assigned topic. Candidates will have one minute to prepare and three minutes to present their ideas before a panel and fellow aspirants. If a topic appears too challenging, a one-time change is allowed. This round assesses clarity, reasoning, and confidence—with no follow-up questions.
• Personal interview: A panel will evaluate each candidate’s aspirations, career goals, and leadership potential. The focus will be not just on responses but also on clarity, confidence, and articulation.
• Academic performance: Academic scores from Class X and XII, and graduation will contribute 50 percent of the overall selection weightage.
Candidates who cleared IBSAT 2024 or are applying through CAT, GMAT, XAT, or NMAT by GMAC must book their interview slots. Participation in the selection process is mandatory for admission. For more details, visit www.ibsindia.org or contact the nearest IBS information office.
