Dear Aspirant,

Yes, if you get above 98%ile then you can get a call from the top IIMs because you have a great score in your graduation as well. But it also depends on your gender and your category. For example, you’re a non engineer so you can get calls at 98%ile too. But if you’re not from general category then you can get calls at a lower percentile as well. So be sure to check the cutoffs of the colleges you’re targeting according to the category you belong to.

Hello Adivya,

Hope you are doing well!

To answer your question, both are really great colleges. Though IIM Ahmedabad has a brand name that S.P. Jain doesn't have, but still, both are top ranked colleges in India.

The below details will help you understand better.

Admission Procedure

• SPJIMR: A CAT or XAT score of 85 percentile above is required if you have a good profile, or else a minimum percentile of 96 is required. Further a good performance in interviews and the psychometric test is needed.
• IIM Ahmedabad: A minimum GMAT score of 720 is required to pass preliminary screening. Further, shortlisting takes place after Analytical Writing and Personal Interviews. Final selection takes place on the basis of cumulative score of previous rounds.

Batch Size

• SPJIMR: The college has a fairly decent batch size of approximately 240 students which allows better focus on each student.
• IIM Ahmedabad: Similar to all IIMs, the university has a fairly large batch size of 400-500 students.

Placements

• SPJIMR: Over the past few years the average placement package of the institution has increased as it has received better recognition. It has an average placement salary of Rs. 22.90 LPA.
• IIM Ahmedabad: Being a prestigious institute since a long time the college students rake up decent placements. The average placement salary is Rs. 25.83 LPA

Hope my answer helped you.

Please let us know in case you have any other query.

Your past academics are quite good, especially your class Xth marks. Now, since you belong to the Person with Disability, or the PwD category, thus you have almost every chance to get into the revered halls of IIM Ahmedabad, as all the institutes of National Importance, including IIM Ahmedabad have a special quota reserved for PwD candidates, and the lack of such candidates makes the selection even more easier.

So, prepare well and give CAT and interviews confidently, and you'll definitely succeed. All the best!

Hello Abhijit,

You seem to have done pretty decent in academics. You definitely clear all the cut-off's, you just need to clear the CAT cutoff, and follow the rounds that follow.

Hope I answered your query.
