IIMBThe Indian Institute of Management (IIM), Bangalore has released the list of selected candidates for interview today. The list was released more than a week after the results of Common Admission Test 2009 was announced on
28 February.

Other IIM's like IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Shillong published the list of selected candidates on February 28 itself while IIM Calcutta (PGDM, PGDCM) and IIM Lucknow announced on 2 March.

IIM Kozhikode announced its short-list on March 5. IIM Indore and IIM Ranchi are yet to announce their lists. IIM Ranchi, IIM Tiruchirapalli, IIM Raipur and IIM Rohtak will have their first secession this year.

The results of CAT are used by these institutions along other business schools in the country for admissions into the two year management courses as well as other programmes.

CAT 2009 was first one to be conducted online as the test has been conducted on paper for 33 years before that. Around 241,582 registered to appear in the CAT 2009. Technical problems caused thousands to students to not appear for exam on the proposed dates between November 28 and December 7, 2009 and hence it was extended by further one day.

The institutes then decided to reschedule the test on January 30 and 31 for around 11,000 candidates who were unable to write the tests due to the technical issues.
