To begin with, I would first like to congratulate you on securing such a decent percentile. It is a reflection that your hard work and consistency has paid off. But a little bit of hard work in quants would have been good for you. Though with your percentile, you could have a chance of securing a call from some of the baby IIMs like IIM Jammu, IIM Ranchi(HR Program), IIM Sirmaur, etc but due to poor quant score you might lose out on that. But fortunately, that is the case for only IIMs. These sectional cut offs do not hold for other B-Schools and you will definitely get a call from tier-2 b-Schools which are good enough to land you into a decent package of 10-12 Lakhs Per Annum package.
I am listing down some of those B-Schools from which you could get a call for their GD/PI process and their average package:
B-Schools
Average Package(in Lakhs Per Annum)
Goa Institute of Management, Goa
11.22
Xavier Institute of Management,Bhubaneswar
13.5
T A Pai Institute of Management, Manipal
11.06
IFMR, Chennai
9
Fore School of Management, Delhi
10.8
KJ Somaiya, Mumbai
9.4
LIBA, Chennai
LBSIM, Delhi
9.2
Welingkar, Mumbai
7.07
BIM, Trichy
10
Though this is not an exhaustive list and may include several other colleges from which you may get a call depending upon whether you fill their form or not.
Now coming to your NMAT score. It is a borderline score. Though you will not get a call from NMIMS Mumbai but calls from NMIMS Hyderabad and Bangalore campuses can be in your email. Apart from that you may also get a call from Xavier Institute of Management for BM, HRM and RM program. SDA Bocconi and IBS Hyderabad will surely be giving you a call for their further selection process.
You can also appear for CMAT, MHCET and TISS-NET exams for their flagship colleges and courses and believe me they make you a gateway to a lot of good B-Schools.
Finally, it will totally be your decision and whatever stream you choose, do have a talk with their current students as conversing with the college authorities will always give you a rosy picture which can sometimes be not the actual case.
I hope I am able to solve your query. All the best!!!
Paras, to be honest, the IIMs are off the list unfortunately due to less score in the QA section. We found few colleges that might be a nice fit for you based on your scores.
