I have 98.71 percentile in CMAT, and had registered for MH-CET. Will I be able to get a seat in Sydenham or PUMBA in the All India category?
Dear Aspirant,
There is a 15-35% reservation in colleges in Maharashtra for All India Examinations like CAT/XAT etc. With your CAT percentile it will be difficult to get into the older IIMs (at least 99.5) but may make it to the newer ones, however you will certainly qualify for other top B Schools (at least 92%) in India. Hence with this percentage you definitely will qualify for Sydenham Institute of Management Studies and SPPU – Department of Management Sciences (PUMPA). We suggest you speak to both and understand their mindset and then decide if you need to write your MHCET.
Good Luck

I am an all india candidate for the exam mhcet 2020 for mms programme. how many marks should i target to get into Jbims sydenham kj somaiya
Hi Akash,
Since September 2, 2019 ruling, Supreme court of India has restored the autonomous status of JBIMS. Thus some changes has been done in the seats allocation as the no. of seats are reduced from 120 to 102 for mahrashtra candidates but the no. of seats available for all India candidates is still 18. The expected cutoff score to get into JBIMS for all India open category seat is around 150-155.
