Hello Mamleshwar,

Well, you have to score at least 99 Percentile and would be better if it goes much above like 99.4 or around 99.5 Percentile to get a call from a high reputed IIM. Because your acdemics are nit upto the mark, its just average scoring. So, to compromise your result you must have to score very good.

Yeah, a less better college can call you based on your percentile if it is low but still you have to be above 90.

I hope this helps.

Best of luck!

Thank you.

Hi Aspirant,

Your marks are just average for getting you into top b-school. But since you are an sc candidate therefore there might be a chance that you get a call from top b-schools in india if you get a percentile more than 90 percentile. Also just getting the required percentile will not help you also need to clear sectional cut off and other rounds of admission. So you must start working hard and prepare yourself to get into top B-school of India.

All the best

Dear Tanmay 

The Post Graduate Program for Executives offered by IIM requires 

5 years professional full time job experience altleast

10+2+3 which is Bachelor degree from any recognized college 

And a valid Gmat score.

You have a good percentage in B.tech but average in class 12th and as you haven't provided any GMAT score I cant be fully sure but if you score above 90 percentile in gmat I am sure you can get IIM. I hope it helped

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.

IIMC delhi conducts it's own subjective exam and since the cutoff is not displayed, it varies and mostly lies in the range of 50 marks fir general category.  To score around 50 marks in the entrance exam,  you need to follow these tips.
  • Develop good command over english language in written format
  • Maintain a good level of knowledge in current affairs and general knowledge
  • Read newspapers daily.
  • Please find the basics of journalism in the books prescribed for IIMC
  • Develop your interview skills. Make your purpose for journalism clear, since it is asked almost in all interviews.
  • Keep tab of data and it's source to write in your answers. Nothing impresses better than a data point in your answer as it is the hallmark of journalism.
Hope this helps
