If you look at the overall marking scheme, then you will lose out on a few marks because of high work experience (people with 2-3 years work ex are given max points). Apart from that, there’s nothing that stops you from qualifying.
However, interview being a very subjective process – our guess is that you will lose out significantly on your interview marks because the panel/admission committee may not be in strong favor to admit people with such high work-ex.
Hope that answers.

am not worried on recruitment …my query is whether such large experience will hinder in ones admission during selection process if an individual qualifies written test ?? can u pl revert ?

16 years is little too high work experience for PGDBA course. Typically, the average work experience is ~2.5 years. Even for placements, you may face challeneges because most of the recruiters who will come to hire you will have lesser experience than you.

Our suggestion would be to opt for other distance learning course if you want to learn analytics and try to make an internal transition into analytics, if you want to switch your profile.

As per the new guidelines released by the college, below are the details:

The reason I am asking this is because I was confused with one of the terms i.e

The CGPA will not be converted into percentage marks, even if the degree awarding Institute provides marks in CGPA system. Their admission will be based on the CGPA awarded in the transcript. If the CGPA is on a different scale other than 10, the eligibility of a candidate will be based on the equivalence of the CGPA on a 10-point scale.

Is this means that I am not eligible to apply for pgdba?
