What should you do next?
Simple stuff, start preparing for GD and PI. Unlike the IIMs, IIFT has a Group Discussion round. So, one should start off with it right away, Read the newspapers daily. Some important topics could be the recent CAA-NRC, Trump’s Impeachment etc. Also, read upon business especially international business, economics, politics etc. related articles.
As for the PI, start preparing answers for the standard HR questions like Self Introduction, Why MBA, Career goals etc.
2IIM Online CAT Preparation is also offering help on GD-WAT-PI for our YouTube members.

Thank you for the informative post.
Doesn’t IIFT always have different cut-offs for their different campuses, does that come later or is it not happening this year?
CONGRATULATIONS to all students. What can be a probable date and place of GD and PI
