You must score above the minimum percentile to get an interview call. This means that even if you score a 99 percentile overall, but a 79.9 percentile in one section, you would not stand a chance at IIM Indore. Now, if you check all these boxes, your profile will be considered for calculating the composite score that takes you to the interview at IIM Indore.

Composite Score= Sum of the above scores

Now, this is a complex table for many applicants to understand. 4 components are deciding your component score: 10th & 12th score, CAT overall score, and Diversity Factor. Work experience is not given any weightage at this stage. This means they won't give any marks for work experience even if you have any.

The above table shows us that IIM Indore has a 59% weightage to 10th and 12th marks and only a 35% weightage to CAT scores.

Composite Score= Sum of the above scores

The weightage considered for this composite score is different from that for the previous one. Firstly, they are not considering the 12th marks anymore. Secondly, the weightage given to 10th marks is suddenly declined. The weightage given to CAT scores is somewhat similar to the previous stage. Moreover, 50% weightage is given to your interview scores. A point to be noted here is that there are no gender or academic diversity points given at this stage.
