Yes you're elegible with minimum 50% marks in graduation and entrance exam score is must like CAT/ GMAT/ CMAT for top end colleges.
Start preparing from final year itslef.
You can alternative ly take up work experience and simultaneously appear for CAT to gain bonus points as work experience candidates are given more preference over freshers.
For CAT preparation there are plenty of books available as below.

Yes of course you're eligible there is no restriction regarding the field in which you have done your graduration for pursuing MBA degree.



Only you need to satisfy the min percentage criteria of 50% in all of your academic degree I.e. 10th 12th and graduation (BA).



On a positive side I would like to tell you that most of the students enrolling in IIMs or other management colleges are engineers so to maintain diversity they prefer non engineers. You will not only able to get additional marks in your aggregate total for being non engineer but also will be able to get an interview call from top IIMs at a little less percentile than the ones who are engineers.



So give your best, aim to secure atleast 98+ percentile you will surely have a high probability of getting selected in a top IIM.

Hi Shubham, Yes you are eligible for CAT and many other management entrances.


It does not matter from which graduation stream you are from but what matters in why you are interested in MBA?


So whether arts. commerce or science you can appear for MBA course.




To apply for CAT, you should have scored minimum 50 percent if from general category and from other reserved categories its 45%.


The application for CAT entrance is ongoing. You can apply it from

.


Also it is advised do not stick to just one exam, give other management exams as well so that you do not stuck to admissions in your choice of college.




Aim to score above 97.7-99.7 percentile above to get admission in top MBA institutes including IIMs.




All the best!

Yes whichever branch you choose your interest matters and salary and success follows it.
So practically out of both you can choose finance otherwise go as per your interest.

You can choose self study for CAT but its needs an indepth study preparation. If you can well balance all your routine task and coaching as well then you can do it. But in the time left coaching is not recommended.

So do your revision and then work on your mocks and its analysis.
