what is chances for getting a call from IIMs if my 10th and 12th perct. Are 61 and 68. But in graduation is 82.4%. Should i prep. CAT or no

Hey!

You should definitely prep for CAT exam and take it, in case you are aiming for MBA. IIMABC do consider your past academic records. But, most of the new IIMs would just consider your CAT percentile and how good you are in GD and PI round. Plus you have a good score in Undergrad, so you can convince your trajectory of improvement or how you learned from your past mistakes and improved yourself. So, prepare well and ace the best MBA college. Best wishes!

Hi Anuj! Each IIM has different admission criteria which assign separate weightages for the past academic records, including Class 10, 12 and graduation. With your Class 10 & 12 scores, it would be difficult to get shortlisted by the IIM BLACKIS unless you have a really high CAT percentile. But again, your chance would depend on the profiles of fellow applicants. Moreover, apart from IIMs, there are various other B-schools which accept CAT scores and do not consider academic profiles. Hence, you should definitely prepare for CAT and should focus only on preparation at the moment. Rest will definitely fall into place.

Hi Anuj,

Your academic scores make you eligible to apply for CAT exam. To get a call from IIMs, especially old IIMs including IIM Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Calcutta, Lucknow, Kozhikode, Shillong, and Indore, you would need to score a high percentile in the CAT exam (above 85 percentile). New IIMs such as IIM Sambalpur, Nagpur, Jammu, etc. accept CAT score above 75 percentile. There are 20 IIMs offering around 4000 seats.

You can definitely prepare for CAT but you need to start your preparation on a very high note as CAT 2018 is just 4 months away; scheduled to be conducted on November 25, 2018, Sunday, in online mode. You can solve online mock test papers to prepare for the exam. Here is all that you need to prepare for the big exam from books to sample papers, tips from CAT toppers to academic experts -
