Akadh, CAT is the entrance examination for admission to 20 IIMs and as many as 1000 participating Institutions. Now for being eligible for CAT, you should have secured a minimum aggregate of 50% in your Bachelor's degree. It is 50% for General Category and 45% for Reserved Categories. So how much you score in CAT will make you eligible for top B-Schools and IIMs. IIMs shortlist candidates for the interview stage based on their own criteria, which may be independent of each other. The process may include Written Ability Test, Group Discussion, and Personal Interviews. Performance in the CAT examination is an important component in the admission process. IIMs may additionally use other factors such as the previous academic performance of the candidates, relevant work experience, gender and academic diversity and other similar inputs in shortlisting and ranking of candidates at various stages of the admission process. The processes, academic cut-offs and the weights allocated to the evaluation parameters may vary across IIMs.
