I have 88% in 10th, 94% in 12th and 64% in BTech. How much should I score in CAT?

Dear Adi

Your profile is fairly decent. Answering your question, if you score over 95 percentile in cat you will have a decent chance in all new IIMs and baby IIMs as well. It will depend upon your percentile and even more on GDPI.

Also if you have percentile in range of 97 plus then MDI gurgaon is a possibility. All other colleges like IITs and IMT are possible over 95.

Also try to score over 99 percentile if you are targeting Old IIMs.

Hello,

To be honest, your class 12th marks doesn't matter that

Much as they only need to make you eligible for a particular exam.

But, you'll have to work pretty hard to offset that 12th score.

To be good enough for you will most importantly need 99.5+

Percentile in CAT and good enough marks in your graduation too.

Though you have to keep in mind that there are some top IIMs which are strict for their 10th, 12th criteria, do not keep many hopes from them.

Good luck!

Hello dear,

CAT is one of the toughest exam for MBA. But as they say, we can climb Everest with planning, strategy, dedicqtion and aiming. A little planning and plotting can help you crack exam.

First of all try joining some coaching class for it. This is because, cat is all about speed, shortcuts and coaching class help us providing with that. Also daily practice of those shortcuts, tips and tricks is required. Now while studying you tend to develop your own tricks, and these tricks help alot.

Solving mock question papers, reading journals, newspapers, watching news channels and english english movies can help you with english part of CAT examination.

Dedicating a good 8 to 10 hrs daily to cat preparation is recommended. And solving mock papers every 3 days.

All the best, try doing all the things and you are good to go.
