Hello priyanka,
Its like I can't judge u by words...
But coming to your score its better to keep far to MBA and it says that it would become most difficult to come with your MBA exams...so better you skip your thought and go for alternative but if you have that confidence that u can do it and achieve it and u wanna do it means u can just go through but the thing is you need to really work heavily and more than your strength I tell u...
All the best....

Yes you are definitely eligible to join MBA course however it purely depends on your performance in the entrance exams. MBA stands for Masters in Business Administration. There are several entrance exams in India conducted by various institutes. You will have to appear in one of these exams and pass it before you can get admission in MBA institute.
I guess you asked this question because of the eligibility criteria of CAT exam. CAT which stands of Common Admission Test is for admission in Indian Institute of Management for MBA course. However to be eligible for appearing in CAT, every candidate is required to score at least 50 percent marks in the graduation course.
If candidate belongs to reserve category then 45 percent would be suffice. Unfortunately in your case you fail to make the cut to appear in CAT entrance exam.
But this is not the end of the world. There is another very popular entrance exam for MBA course called Management Aptitude Test (MAT). Those who have scored low in their graduation degree can appear in MAT exam. Several universities across the country accept MAT score for giving admission for MBA course.
Some of these universities are considered to be very reputed. The great thing around MAT is that you are not required to secure a minimum percentage to appear in the exam. As long as you have completed a graduation course, you are eligible to appear in the exam.
There are several other National level entrace exams for MBA. However exams like
IRMA
IIFT
SNAP
IBSAT
NMAT
XAT
and ATMA requires MBA aspirants to have secured at least 50 percent marks in the Bachelor's course.
On the other hand the eligibility for JMET and TISS exam depends on the course and institute.
Other exams where you can appear in are:
MAH-CET
CUSAT
PAM-CAT
TANCET
OCET
UP-SEE
Orissa JEE
KMAT

if you wants to take admission particularly in IIMS Ranchi you must have the following admission criteria:IIM Ranchi Eligibility criteria require that the candidate must hold a bachelor's degree of minimum 3 years duration after class 12, with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA (in case of the candidate belonging to SC/ST/PwD category, the eligibility criterion is relaxed to 45%One of the most important points in IIM Ranchi Admission Eligibility criteria is that apart from a recognized graduate degree, the candidate should appear in CAT 2018 exam and must score minimum prescribed sectional and overall score to be considered for shortlistingIf the candidate is awarded grades/CGPA instead of marks, the equivalence to determine PGP admission eligibility would be based on the equivalence certified by the institution/university from where the bachelor's degree is obtained. In case the institution/university does not have any scheme for converting the CGPA into equivalent marks, the equivalence would be established by IIM Ranchi by dividing the obtained CGPA by the maximum possible CGPA and multiplying the resultant by 100 to confirm the Admission eligibility of the candidate.A candidate appearing for the final year bachelor's degree/equivalent qualification examination and those who have completed the degree requirements and are awaiting results is also eligible to apply for IIM Ranchi Admission 2019-21.Such a candidate must produce a certificate from the principal/head of the department/ registrar/director of the institution/university certifying that the candidate is currently in the final year or is awaiting final results and has obtained at least 50% marks or equivalent (45% in case of the candidate belonging to SC/ST/PwD category) based on latest available grades/marks.IIM Ranchi Eligibility further clarifies that such a candidate, if selected, will not be eligible for the IIM Ranchi admission unless he/she submits a certificate latest by June 30, 2019 from the principal/head of the department/registrar/director of the institution/university (issued on or before June 30, 2019) stating that they have completed all the requirements (the result may, however, be awaited) for obtaining the bachelor's degree/equivalent qualification on the date of issue of the certificate.It is mandatory for a final year student, who is provisionally considered eligible by IIM Ranchi and offered admission, to submit the mark-sheet and degree certificate of the final year bachelor's degree examination held on or before June 30, 2019.The deadline to submit the mark-sheet and the certificate is December 31, 2019. IIM Ranchi Shortlisting CriteriaThe second part of IIM Ranchi Admission criteria is the shortlisting criteria before Personal Interview Round. IIM Ranchi will shortlist the candidates on the basis of performance in CAT 2018 exam for final selection round and will declare the shortlist in the second week of February 2019.
