You need to score 96 percentile and above to get a call for BM and 94 percentile and above for HRM. Besides you also need to clear sectional cut-offs. Marks in graduation does not matter much in XLRI.

All the best!

Hey

yeah, you can apply

However, the weightage assigned to academics differs acros institutes.

some colleges give 30% weghtaege to academics while some give 10% weightage.

Apparently, you will face dfficulty during placements wherein companies stepping in the campus require you to obtain a minimum of 60% across.Hence, I would not suggets you to go through CA or XAT or any mangaemnet aptitude test

Hope it helps!

 look 87 percentile is not bad , it will surely help you to get through a desent college but then, there is no point geteting in if you can't make through the final placements.So, it will be better if you could have an experience of 2 years and apply for the executive coourse.Ypou can also look for banking and finance programs introsuced by Bank of baroda and various other banks atht assures role diectly into banks after 2 years.Simulataneously, I would suggest you to apply for governmet examination like SSC,CGL owing to the fact atht you get 87 percetile, i am 99% sure that you wil sail through it. All teh best!!

Is there any difference between public and pvt like pvt want cut offs more than 50% and all? Or only bank jobs are all I got?So after gaining my experience and then go for mba will I get the same problem in placements?No, I didn't do engineering..

Well After having an experience of 2 years, you may get some relaxationThe other option is to go ahead and appear for PSUs like BHEL, CCL, HPL, etc through entrance examinationsThese PSUs won't require first class.Very few private companies stepping down to your campus will entertain students who don't have first class throughout or at least 50%, that will be risky.Better safe than sorry
