How do students at IIM Bangalore, IIM Ahmedabad, and IIM Calcutta select their elective courses? Can you explain the system?

Question

Lipika Ghosh, · Accepted Answer

So, at IIMs like Bangalore, Ahmedabad, and Calcutta, elective course selection usually happens through a bidding system. Each student gets around 1000 points to bid on about 6 courses. On the bidding day, everyone logs into the system and starts bidding. Popular courses like Finance, Marketing, and Strategy can have 200-300 students bidding, but only about 75 get in. It's smart not to spend all your points on just one or two courses. Since there are many options, students usually get a course they want.
