Hello Rittick,

Since you have given the XAT exam and your score is 25.1, I would like to tell you that there are chances that you might, not sure, but you might get a call.

The chances are slim because the colleges that you have mentioned above require a minimum of 90 percentile.

Still, hoping for the best, there is a chance you might get a call.

Last date to apply is  January 22, 2019, 23:59 hours on Tuesday.

Hey Gaurav!

You will get into most of the private colleges like Alliance University, School of Petroleum Management, Galgotias University.

You have a pretty good score in class ten and decent ones in twelfth and Engineering. But, it's not good enough to make it in top IIMs like ABC. Plus, you have okayish percentile in CAT. Therefore, I will suggest you prepare well and score well in CAT next year. As you will be investing a good amount for your MBA, joining a not so good college is a perfect compromise on ROI. So, you should at least make it to the new IIMs, IIFT, TISS-NET, as they don't consider the past academic records. Prepare well and ace it. Best Wishes. 

You may try for PGDM - IB at FORE, for sure. Last year cut off has been 85 for PGDM and 78 for PGDM IB at FORE. LIBA isnt worth trying for (Cut off was 80) as the no. of seats for general is limited due to reservations. BIM Trichy cut off was 80 but better option is IFMR instead of BIM Trichy or LIBA.

Hi Sarthak! Both the B-schools have similar CAT cutoff range. LBSIM PGDM cutoff is around 85 percentile. For FSM, the programme wise cutoffs are as follows:

• PGDM - 84 percentile
• PGDM (IB) - 76 percentile
• XAT
• PGDM - 85 percentile
• PGDM-IB - 78 percentile

The last date to fill up the form is 22nd-Dec so if you haven't applied for the same till now then it is advisable to fill up the application form asap.
