Hi

Your profile suggests that you are a B school aspirant.

You must try to  get at least around 50 % in your graduation even if you are from obc in order to be eligible for entrance exams like CAT.

For your reference

CAT eligibility criteria is given below which is the most reputed entrance examination for MBA and it is accepted by more than 1100 B- schools including prestigious IIMs and its eligibility criteria says that

To be eligible for CAT ,

  • you need a  Bachelor's/graduation degree in any discipline from a recognised university. you must have got  at least 50 per cent marks or equivalent CGPA in your graduation if belongs to general/obc/ews .  SC/ST/PH students need only at least 45 percentage in Bachelor’s Degree in any discipline to be eligible .

  • Candidates who are in the final year of their graduation are also eligible for CAT examination.

  • There is no age restriction to be  eligible

  • It is not mandatory to have work experience to be eligible

But yes,

Admission is based on your percentile score in CAT , academic profile like percentage of marks obtained by you in  class 10th, 12th and graduation and work experience. So, it would be good if you try to get at least around 80 - 85 % or more in your graduation.

Thank you
