Hello Vivek,

Eligibility criteria for admission into IIM Calcutta is a student must have obtained a minimum of 50% or equivalent CGPA in bachelor's degree or 45% for other categories. The candidates will then be shortlisted on the basis of the CAT cut off and for only those students past academic results will be assessed. In this according to your marks you will get 10 points for class 10 and 0 for class 12. However if you obtain 100 percentile there are chances that you will still have overall points more than other candidates which can get you admission in the college.

Hello. To get into IIM Calcutta, one must appear for the CAT exam. Based on your CAT score, they will call you for the interviews. In the interview, you can explain why you failed.

My advice is to prepare hard for the CAT examination and score as high as possible.

Hope you get a seat in IIM Calcutta.

All the best.
