I have 62% in graduation overall. My profile isn't strong enough. Though Can I have chance to get admission in to IIMs ?
There is Distribution and weightage of marks on Gender, Academics, Work Experience, Engineering or Nonengineering background for IIMs.
If your score meets above criteria and you have great GDPI only then you shall have great chances.

Since there is only one month to go,
you should not start off with new topics , rather focus on revision and mocke xams where you can identify how much time you consuime for wrong questions and find out right approach to solve the same. You need to select and cherrypick questions to get good score within less time. Hence, its advised to have accuracy and watch atleast one news channel everyday plus one newspaper everyday. You wont get accuracy by leaving questions, try to solve all problems initially and where you go wrong solve such questions more to make your weaknesses redundant, once you do that your confidence will boost miles away. Secondly, give maximum mock tests and make sure you dont repeat same mistakes again. once you're done with that you can then choose and select certain questions in final CAT exam to score great percentile within less amount of time for maximum accuracy.
All the best for future endeavors.
You know that after CAT exam each and every IIM prepares a merit list based on your aggregate score which comprises of many factors such as CAT marks, 10th 12th and graduation percentage, work experience, engineer or non engineer, gender with different weightages for different colleges. Generally overall weightage for 10th 12th and graduation percentage is from 10-25% in aggregate score so you can see how much it can vary your position in merit list. The only solution to overcome this is aim for higher percentile.
For getting a call from top IIMs like IIM A, B & C you need to score above atleast 99.8 percentile. For other old IIMs like L, K and I aim to score above 99+ percentile. And if you get above 95+ percentile there is a good probability of getting call from all New IIMs. I have already told percentile is one factor and high percentile is also no guarantee but that is the only way to cover your academic loss.
All the best for your preparations and exams!!
