43 no. in sc cat..... koi chance?
Hello Surinder,
If you scored 43 marks in the CAT exam under the SC category, it might be challenging to secure admission in top-tier IIMs, as their cut-offs are generally higher. However, you may have a chance at newer or less competitive IIMs or other good management institutes that have lower cut-offs for reserved categories.
Here’s what you can consider:
-
Newer IIMs : Some of the newer IIMs might have lower cut-offs, so it’s worth applying to them.
| -
Other Management Institutes : Look into other reputed B-schools like NITIE, MDI, FMS (if open to reserved category candidates), and other state-level management institutes.
Apply for GD-PI Rounds : Some institutes might have a holistic selection process, where your performance in the Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI) rounds can help improve your chances.
It’s advisable to apply broadly and consider schools with lower cut-offs.
