IIFM Bhopal All Questions

Hello,

Admission to BITS Pilani MBA is only possible with a good academic record and high CAT percentile. Here is how your profile may match up:

• CAT Percentile: A 55 percentile CAT score is pretty low for BITS Pilani, as they prefer the higher percentiles. But being an SC candidate may help you a bit in terms of relaxation of cutoff criteria because of the reservation policy.
• Academic Profile: Your 10th, 12th, and graduation percentages (51%, 60%, and 59%) come below the average profile for selected candidates, which lowers your chances.
• SC Category: The SC category may slightly give you some relief over admission, but meeting minimum eligibility - say, 60 % in graduation - and also other criteria is important for selection.
• Other Factors : Strong performance in the interview and statement of purpose shall be important factors in terms of selection.

For a clearer understanding of cutoff trends and eligibility to BITS Pilani's MBA program, it is always best to refer to the official website or contact the admissions office. Alternatively, you may consider institutes with less strict criteria. Let me know if you need help in finding alternatives!

Hello,

Admission to the National Institute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE), Hyderabad, with a CAT 2024 percentile of 77 may not be easy. MANAGE usually has strict admission standards, and even though the cut-off percentile may differ every year, depending upon the number of applicants and overall performance, general cut-offs for institutes like MANAGE are usually more than 77, especially for the most popular programs.

MANAGE, however, takes into account multiple factors while making the selections, including CAT score, academic record, work experience, and performance in personal interviews. So, having good academic credentials or having relevant work experience may even help you get selected.

You should refer to the authentic MANAGE website or current updates for cut-off trends of your course and attempt to apply to as many institutes as possible to expand your choices.

Hello Pratik,

If your family income exceeds 8 LPA, it will affect your eligibility for the NC-OBC category under the CAT reservation rules. The NC-OBC category requires that the family income should be below 8 LPA to qualify. If you anticipate that your income will exceed this threshold, you should update your status and notify the CAT authorities .

Here's what you can do:

1. Email the CAT authorities : Inform them about the potential change in your income status and request to be considered under the General category, if applicable. You should do this before the examination or any further processing, as your eligibility for the OBC category depends on the income criteria.
   
   

2. Documents and Proof : Make sure you have a valid OBC certificate and any relevant documentation regarding your family income, in case they require verification. Also, be aware that if your income exceeds 8 LPA, you might need to apply under the General category, as the OBC-NC reservation is no longer applicable.
   
   

3. General Category Consideration : If your application is accepted as General, you will be evaluated based on the General category criteria, including cutoffs and ranking.

To summarize, notifying the CAT authorities is the correct approach to avoid discrepancies later, and if your income is above the threshold, you will be treated as a General candidate for the admissions process.
