Hello Pranjul!

Looks like you aced your CMAT exam! You have a lot of good options at hand. Here's a list of some with their expected cutoffs, predicted on the basis of last few years:

• Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida - 82 percentile
• Lovely Professional University, Punjab - 80 percentile
• Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra, Ranchi - 75 percentile
• Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, Pune - 75 percentile
• PSG Institute of Management, Coimbatore - 75 percentile
• Bimtech, Greater Noida - 75 percentile
• Institute of Management Technology (IMT) - Nagpur and Hyderabad

You can also try a shot at:

• Prin. LN Welingkar Institute of Management Development and Research, Bangalore - 85 percentile
• Prin. LN Welingkar Institute of Management Development and Research, Mumbai - 85 percentile
• IFIM Business School, Bangalore - 85 percentile
• Prestige Institute of Management, Gwalior - 84 percentile

Though these have estimated cutoffs greater than your percentile, they do call students with less than the cutoff sometimes, if he/she has a good profile or so. Anyway, worth a try.

All the best!
