Hi Nilesh,

Well you have great academics & also have the probability to convert the top IIM'S. As your are yo from btech background & also general, you must have score 99.8 percentile in CAT to get call from these IIMS. IIM A ruling huge number of gender & stream diversity these day. So, you must get that percentile to get a call from that percentile but as your academics are good, you have great chances if you score atleast 99 percentile in CAT to get a call from IIM B & C.



Hope you got it.

Hello Nilesh

How much percentile is good enough to secure a seat in one of the Indian Institute of Management campuses is one of those questions which often comes in an MBA aspirant’s mind.


While the popular perception is that 90+ percentile is enough, the reality is that it will help you cross only the first hurdle. Admissions in IIMs are not based only on CAT percentile but also on the candidates overall academic performance and on his/her performance in the interview and WAT/GD rounds.


Some IIMs also give additional weights to Work experience and UG Stream. Cut offs vary according to the case category as well.


Let me give you some idea for a general category engineering male who has a 80+ academic background through out. [This will vary + - depending on the other parameters I mentioned above].


IIM A-B-C: 99.6 + overall with sectionals 96 around.


IIM L-I-K: 98.5+ with sectionals 90+


New IIMs: 96.5+ with sectionals 85+


Baby IIMs: 93+ with sectionals 80+
