Hi Vidyansh,

Congratulations on having such a nice profile. It’s really great to see that you have maintained consistency over the years and there’s a clear reflection of that. The only thing that is not right here is the marks as it would not amount to a decent percentile in XAT. I will not give you any flowery situation and false hopes but its really difficult to get into any decent B-School with the percentile that you are going to secure. I am giving you the probable marks-percentile break up:

Marks

Percentile

28

89

30

90

32

93

35

95

40

97+


XLRI will consider you for their BM and HR program only if you score 93+ percentile in XAT and they will call you for further shortlisting process. Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar will require you to get 91+ for their BM program and 87+ for their HR program. XISS, Ranchi and XIME, Bangalore will require 70-75+ percentile for their GD/PI process.

What you can do write now is that, if you are hell bent on getting admitted into a Xavier Institution, then you can write XAT for another year. If you are sure to get into a decent B-school this year, then you may have to write other exams like MAT, CMAT, MHCET and ATMA. XIME, Bangalore and Kochi campus accepts MAT score so you can try that.

You would have to get yourself prepared for GD/PI processes too as you won’t be getting any time for preparation after the college gives you the call. Try reading newspapers and go through every other article on latest innovations, research, economy and sports.

No need to worry as there are a lot of good B-Schools, who, I am sure will be more than happy to take you into their course and with your perfect work-experience, companies won’t hesitate either.

I hope I have been able to solve your query. All the best!!!

Hello vidyansh

To get a good college you atleast need more than 22+ marks to maintain a good 80+ percentile,it's really very difficult and the chances are really low , so it will be better if you check for any other alternative also.
