Well, it's not possible to get calls from IIMs or other A-tier colleges at this percentile and academic background. But never feel disheartened because with every downfall, appears a new step of achievement. You have CMAT down the line. Prepare well for that. If you score good in that then a number of good options like

*NIBM,

*NIA,

*K. J Somaiya Institute of Management (Mumbai) , *Goa Institute of Management (Goa),

*Great Lakes Institute of Management (Chennai),  *JBIMS(Mumbai), etc.



It is better not to take admission this year because it would simply be a waste of resources and time. If you really aspire to pursue MBA as your career then give CMAT with full zest or else work hard, prepare well and re-appear for CAT'18.

A percentile of around 80 in CAT will strengthen your prospects of getting an IIM in fact an old IIM.



All the best!!

Dear your academics are slightly on a lower side, however if you manage to score 90+ percentile then your chances will really be strong. I am telling you this because with 80 percentile some new IIMs or even a few old IIMs may send you call but conversion into admission would be difficult because they consider academics too. However, with 90+ percentile, your final conversion chances would strengthen too. So try to score 90+ and upon getting calls, try to give your best in interviews and GD.
