In 10th 89.6 % , 12th 86% and in graduation 5.5 cgpa ..can I get a good bshool?

Dear Mansi, if we convert your Graduation score to marks it is 5.5 * 9.5 whixh is approximately 52.25. Now because the eligibility criteria for CAT is to score 50% in your Bachelor's you are eligible for CAT. And then there is a rating scale for your score in 10th, 12th and Graduation. Have a look at how the rating scale might look like:



10th Rating:



Percent score          Rating Score



<= 55                                    1



> 55 and <= 60                   2



> 60 and <= 70                   3



> 70 and <= 80                   5



> 80 and <= 90                   8



> 90                                     10





So here you score 8 marks.





12th Rating:



Percent score                 Rating Score



<= 55                                            1



> 55 and <= 60                           2



> 60 and <= 70                           3



> 70 and <= 80                           5



> 80 and <= 90                           8



> 90                                             10



Here again you score 8 marks.



Percent score in Bachelor's Degree        Rating Score

<= 55                                                                     1

> 55 and <= 60                                                    2

> 60 and <= 62                                                    3

> 62 and <= 65                                                    5

> 65 and <= 70                                                    8

> 70                                                                      10



This is where you score just 1 mark. Few top Schools select top 5% of Candidates in each Category  to shortlist for WAT and PI rounds. So to be shortlisted, this is how your CAT percentile should look like:





QA         DLR        VARC       Overall

General:                       70            70           70               80

NC-OBC/Trans:          65            65           65               75

SC:                                60            60           60               70

ST:                                50            50           50               60

PwD-UR,OBC,SC:      60             60           60               70

PwD: ST:                     50            50            50              60

Hello,

Although a low CGPA score does cause an

impact during admissions time, it is however

not the only factor which decides whether

you get admitted in top B-schools. There are

several other important elements which you

can still work on to ensure you gain

admissions in the universities of your

preference. You must draft a well written,

clear and concise SOP (Statement of

Purpose). This must define your aspirations

on completing the course and the reasons

why you have selected this particular course.

Next you will have to obtain an impressive

LOR (Letter of Recommendation) from your

professors where you did your under

graduate degree in or from any of your

managers whom you have worked with. In

addition to the above you could also

complete some online certifications which

would add value to your profile or learn any

new languages. Finally you will have to

ensure you have a detailed study plan to prepare for the GMAT exam hence enabling to achieve high score.







Hope it helps
