Admission Standard Operating Procedure
Every new student is mapped into a “Zero Group” for a week. Zero group is also called “Introductory Phase Group”. After a week, based on everyone’s performance in “Mapping Phase”, students are divided into five different IQ groups.
Our Internal Mapping System is a process to mark or rate students on the basis of their Intellect, Intelligence (IQ), Aptitude, Attitude, and Commitment.
Our Mapping system also helps us in making “Homogeneous Batches”. Similarly mapped students are grouped into the same batches.
Batch Selection Methodology
We follow a scientific selection process in batch-allocation. Batches are made based on the student’s “IQ Parameter Mapping”. Same mapped students are grouped into the same batch. In this way, we create homogenous groups in terms of Intellect, Intelligence (IQ), Aptitude, Attitude, and Commitment.
The primary objective of this initiative is to ensure “Education for All.” We are committed to delivering high-quality education at the most affordable cost. Our classes are accessible to any student who is eager to learn. The course offers a combination of Live Online and Classroom sessions that are available throughout the year. Students have the flexibility to choose between Weekday or Weekend classes, as well as Morning or Evening sessions. This allows them to tailor their learning experience according to their preferences and availability. Our aim is to provide inclusive and convenient educational opportunities, enabling all students to pursue their learning goals effectively.
CAT Course Structure
All the CAT courses whether regular or customized are unique in their structure.
All Phases of the course are designed to be as personalized as a “One-on-One” Instruction.
All Courses are divided into four phases:
- Introductory or Mapping Phase (One-on-One Stage): This phase is employed at the beginning and usually takes 2-4 sessions. In this phase, GMCAT Instructors try to analyze every student in the batch by their interaction with them. This step takes 10% of total course time.
- Foundation Phase (Batch Stage): It covers basics of all sections of CAT & GMAT. This phase is around 20-50% of the whole course.
- Testing Phase (One-on-One Stage): This phase involves Computer Adaptive Tests, Computer Based Tests, and Paper Based Tests. Every course comes with a commitment of “Minimum Tests” i.e. a minimum number of tests which a student has to attempt to complete the course.
- Control Phase (One-on-One Stage): This last Phase is to look into any gaps in test preparation.

+99%ile Apex-25 Batch
The Apex-25 Batch provides a unique learning environment with a small class size of 25 students, fostering individualized attention and deeper engagement. Students are selected based on merit through a comprehensive admission process. The students have to apply for the coveted seats in the Program. An admission test is conducted and students are selected on merit basis.
Main Facets of +99%ile Apex-25 Batch:
- Admission through Entrance Mapping Test: Admission in +99%ile Apex-25 batch is done through an entrance test. Due to the limited number of places available, admission is highly selective. Selection is based on a rigorous evaluation of academic and test performance. Mapping Test is an IQ-based test which helps in segregating students into five different Percentile-based Groups.
The Entrance Mapping Test is an IQ test, not a knowledge test. Since it measures innate aptitude rather than learned information, no preparation is necessary. - 5-Levels Percentile-Based Batches: Students are divided into five percentile based batch Series. The segregation of students is done based on their performance in the Mapping Entrance Test. This allows for more tailored instruction and personalized support within each batch.
- Adaptive Learning Pedagogy: Organizing students into percentile-based batches allows for a more personalized learning experience. Batches with lower percentiles concentrate on building a strong understanding of fundamental concepts. As percentiles increase, the batch focus shifts towards applying those concepts in complex scenarios and rigorous practice.
- Weekly Evaluation Tests for Batch upgrdation: Unlock access to more advanced learning opportunities! Take the Weekly Evaluation Test to assess your skills and potentially move to a higher-level batch based on your percentile score.
- Money-Back Guarantee: We're so confident in our course's ability to help you achieve your target score that we offer a money-back guarantee. If you don't succeed, you get your money back! Your success is our priority.

No Limit. We don’t assign it to a numerical value. The objective of Testing Phase is to improve student’s ability. Tests for any student will not stop till we see desired results.
The primary objective of Testing Phase is to search for student’s ‘Optimal saturation level’. This stage can also be defined as a stage where Concept, Application and Practice variable will not have any effect on the score.
