EMPI Business School

EMPI Business School uses entrance exam cutoffs as the first filter to shortlist applicants for its PGDM programs. For the 2024 cycle, the institute kept a 60th percentile cutoff for CAT and XAT, a 70th percentile cutoff for CMAT, and a 75th percentile cutoff for MAT for General Category applicants. The same score requirement was applied to all PGDM specialisations, which keeps the shortlisting process simple and allows students to choose their preferred track later.

The cutoff for each exam changes slightly every year because EMPI reviews multiple factors before finalising the score range. The overall number of applicants, the difficulty level of the entrance exam, and the availability of seats directly influence the percentile needed for shortlisting.

EMPI Business School Cutoff FAQs

Does EMPI Business School publish an official cutoff every year?

EMPI does not publish a fixed cutoff list; instead, it reviews each applicant’s entrance score along with their academic record. The final shortlisting depends on how well the candidate’s overall profile meets the program requirements.

Which entrance exam scores are considered for the EMPI cutoff?

EMPI accepts scores from CAT, XAT, CMAT, MAT, ATMA and GMAT. The score required for shortlisting varies each year based on the applicant pool and the number of available seats.

What is the expected CMAT or MAT score for EMPI shortlisting?

Most shortlisted candidates usually hold competitive scores in the mid-range or above for CMAT and MAT. However, performance in GD-PI rounds often becomes the deciding factor rather than the score alone.

Does EMPI have separate cutoffs for different PGDM specialisations?

No, EMPI follows a common evaluation process for all PGDM tracks. The specialisation is chosen later, so the initial shortlisting does not rely on separate cutoffs.

Can a student with a lower entrance score still get shortlisted?

Yes, EMPI considers multiple factors beyond scores, including academic consistency, internship experience and communication skills. A strong GD-PI performance can improve chances for such candidates.

Does the cutoff change every admission cycle?

Yes, the expected score range shifts each year depending on the number of applicants and overall competition. High-volume admission cycles usually push the cutoff range slightly higher.
