How is my academic profile for MBA colleges like iim iift and xlri if the University from which I am pursuing bsc is ordinary.

See you have an outstanding academic records and it does not matter if the university from which you are doing graduation is ordinary.



Let me tell you after giving MBA exams like CAT, XAT, IIFT etc. every college prepare a merit list based on your aggregate score which comprises of many factors such as MBA exam marks, 10th 12th and graduation percentage, work experience, engineer or non engineer, gender with different weightages for different colleges. Here academic records have a total of 10-25% weightage in your aggregate score in which you will ve scoring almost full with your excellent records. Hence it will boost up your chances of selection.



Remember one thing that still in every college's aggregate score mostly MBA exams has the highest weightage ranging from 35-60 % so always aim for a very high percentile in every exams then only you will be able to take benefit of your good academic records.



Now you will finish your exams in May 2018 and will give CAT 2018. Yes that will be consider as an year drop but you don't need to worry at all because it hardly impacts your selection process. You can be asked about the year drop in your interview process just prepare a solid reason to justify your decision. If you don't have any excuse then along with CAT preparations also do some relevant courses about management and personality so that you can say it in interview and justify that you were also learning new things in this year with CAT preparations.



All the best for your preparations!!

You have an excellent academic profile which will boost your chances many fold when you appear for the respective examination like CAT and XAT. The university or college of graduation does not matter during the admission process. You will also have an advantage of being a non engineering student and you will get extra marks during your selection process for this.



If you get a good percentile in CAT/XAT/IIFT examination you will get an interview call which you need to clear for selection.



Your chances of your conversion depends on various parameters apart from your CAT scores and academic scores. You need to appear for the WAT and PI process and excel there as well. Hence give your best in CAT and then prepare for interviews and ace it. All the best!
