Hello,

Yes, provided you have a decent percentile in the common admissions test (CAT) too. There are a lot of factors on which IIM takes admission. You have a decent profile but still there are lots of other factors which govern whether you'll be getting a call from the top IIMs or not like, which college you did your undergraduate degree from, which course did you pursue and many other factors which play a role.
