| Part-time programmes | Selection is done strictly on the basis of MAH-CET score and the application of the student (previous academic performance). | In Phase 2 the candidates have to clear the Written Test and the Personal Interview in order to be selected for JBIMS. |
JBIMS has structured the weightage of every component in both the rounds i.e. AR and IPA. Candidates must do well in both the rounds to secure a seat at JBIMS Mumbai.

JBIMS Final Selection Process 2026
The JBIMS Mumbai final selection process is carried out after both the rounds i.e., AR and IPA are done. After that, all the components of both rounds add up to the total composite score of the candidate based on the weightage of each of the components. Each candidate is awarded a composite score for the final selection. Here is how the composite score is calculated:
Composite Score = 0.60 (AR) + (In-Person Assessment Round or IPA)
Usually, if a candidate scores 153 out 200 in MAH-CET, she/he must have secured 99 percentile in the exam, however, in order to secure 100 percentile, a candidate will have to score close to 163 – 165 marks in MAH-CET. Apart from the CAT or MAH-CET score, the candidate also needs a strong academic background to qualify for JBIMS final selection process 2026.
