What is the minimum score for MBA eligiblity through CAT
Dear aspirant,
The cut off score depends various iims and non iims depending on certain factors like number of candidates appearing in the examination, number of vacant seats in college, previous years cut offs and difficulty level of the paper.
Furthermore , there are some basic eligiblity criteria like you need to pass your graduation with atleast 50% marks.

Hi,
In order to get admission in top MBA colleges in India, the actual CAT cut off 2021 will be minimum 90 percentile but for IIMs (IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Bangalore, IIM Calcutta, IIM Lucknow and IIM Kozhikodek) , the CAT cut offs are high, around 99+ percentile.
I hope this helps,
All the best.
