I got 76% in 10th, 63% in 12th and 8.94 CGPA in B.Tech. I am preparing for CAT exam my mock %tile is 97. How much chance to get admission in g best MBA college?

Hello there,

With a 97 percentile in CAT mocks, you have a strong chance of getting into a top MBA college, especially if you can maintain or improve this percentile in the actual exam. However, admission to top IIMs or other premier institutes (like IIM A, B, C, FMS, etc.) also considers factors like:

1. Academic Profile: Your 10th and 12th marks are somewhat below the typical benchmarks set by the top IIMs, but your B.Tech CGPA is strong.

2. Work Experience (if applicable): Relevant work experience can significantly boost your profile.

3. Diversity Factor: Some colleges give weightage to academic diversity or gender diversity, which could benefit you depending on your profile.


4. Interview and GD/PI Performance: Performing well in the group discussions, written ability test, and personal interviews is critical.

For Tier-1 MBA colleges, if your CAT score remains at or above 97 percentile, you have a fair chance, but your slightly lower 10th and 12th scores may be a minor disadvantage at top IIMs. However, you should still be competitive for other top institutes like MDI, SPJIMR, IITs (for MBA), and others. Keep focusing on your CAT preparation to secure the best percentile possible.

Hope it helps Thankyou!
