IIMs shortlist candidates for the interview stage based on their own criteria, which may be independent of each other. The process may include Written Ability Test, Group Discussion, and Personal Interviews. Performance in the CAT examination is an important component in the admission process. IIMs may additionally use other factors such as the previous academic performance of the candidates, relevant work experience, gender and academic diversity and other similar inputs in shortlisting and ranking of candidates at various stages of the admission process. The processes, academic cut-offs and the weights allocated to the evaluation parameters may vary across IIMs These are the cut offs of IIM A, B and C for the year 2019.

IIM A:

Now the various ratings for various scores are as follows:

Percentage in the 10th

Rating

<=55

1

>55 and <=60

2

>60 and <=70

3

>70  and <=80

5

>80  and <=90

8

>90

10



Now coming to the 12th, it looks like this for various Streams:

Percentage in the 12th science

Rating

<=55

1

>55 and <=60

2

>60 and <=70

3

>70  and <=80

5

>80  and <=90

8

>90

10


Percentage in the 12th Commerce

Rating

<=50

1

>50 and <=55

2

>55 and <=65

3

>65  and <=75

5

>75  and <=90

8

>90

Percentage in the 12th Arts/humanities

>45 and <=50

2

>50 and <=60

3

>60  and <=70

And then the Rating scores for Bachelor's degrees are as follows:

Percentage in Bachelor's degree

Rating

<=55

1

>55 and <=60

2

>60 and <=62

3

>62  and <=65

5

>65  and <=70

8

>70

10


And for professional degrees, the rating scale looks like this:

Percentage in Bachelor's degree

Rating

<=50

1

>50 and <=53

2

>53 and <=55

3

>55  and <=57

5

>57  and <=63

8

>63

10


And then work experience is considered too for those Candidates who have it. The scores from each level of studies are added up. And the no.of Candidates shortlisted per each Category will be as follows:

UR: 100

NC-OBC, Trans: 57

SC: 32

ST: 16

PWD: 6

And after being shortlisted based on these criteria, Candidates have to be shortlisted also for WAT and PI rounds. The whole process can be checked at their page: https://www.iima.ac.in/web/pgp/apply/domestic/admission/selection-process

IIM BANGALORE:

For all the Candidates shortlisted, the 10th and 12th board results are initially adjusted by dividing each such score by 90th percentile score of that board. And then an adjusted score is calculated for the Bachelor's degree for each of the candidates based on the final scores obtained by the candidate are used for the Bachelor's degree and professional degrees. For example,


CAT = 40
10th board = 20
12th board = 10
Bachelors = 20
Gender Diversity = 2
Work Experience = 8
The 40 points for CAT are derived from the performance in each of the three sections as follows:
Verbal & Reading Comprehension - 14 points
Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning - 16 points Quantitative Aptitude - 10 points.

IIM C:

And the final selection is based on:
CAT 2019 Score 30
Personal Interview 48
Written Ability Test 10
Academic Diversity 04
Work Experience 08
Total 100

Now you haven't mentioned your Category. With the scores you have mentioned, it might be tad difficult. But if you can score atleast 98 percentile and above in CAT 2020, you might have a chance.

Professional Courses carry more weightage in IIM A. And Academic Diversity is a factor that IIM C also looks into and awards 4 pointz. S if you can score atleast 98 percentile, you will have decent chances.If not the traditional IIMs, you might have a sure chance in baby IIMs.
