Process
The exam was an aptitude test conducted by each of the IITs on a rotation basis. The exam tested the candidate's knowledge of mathematics, data interpretation, logical reasoning and English usage. It was conducted annually in the month of December, and comprised questions in multiple choice format. From 2007 onwards sectional cut-offs were introduced. Candidates clearing all the four sectional cut-offs receive an All India Rank (AIR). The group discussion and or personal interview calls were given out on basis of a candidates AIR and overall profile which included past academics, extra-curricular and work experience, and it was not mandatory that all candidates who are declared as qualified by the exam will be called group discussion and interview. Calling the candidates for such later process of selection was the prerogative of the admitting institute.

Famous quotes containing the word process:
“The process of writing has something infinite about it. Even though it is interrupted each night, it is one single notation.”
—Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
“The moralist and the revolutionary are constantly undermining one another. Marx exploded a hundred tons of dynamite beneath the moralist position, and we are still living in the echo of that tremendous crash. But already, somewhere or other, the sappers are at work and fresh dynamite is being tamped in place to blow Marx at the moon. Then Marx, or somebody like him, will come back with yet more dynamite, and so the process continues, to an end we cannot foresee.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“Consumer wants can have bizarre, frivolous, or even immoral origins, and an admirable case can still be made for a society that seeks to satisfy them. But the case cannot stand if it is the process of satisfying wants that creates the wants.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
