Hello,

It is mandatory for the candidates who wish to pursue MBA from IIM Bangalore must register and apply for CAT 2019 before September 18, 2019 and must appear in the CAT 2019 exam on November 24, 2019. A balanced score in all the three sections of CAT 2019 and good academic profile is the key to get admission in IIM Bangalore.

Hey Aashutosh! There is different eligibility criteria for different specializations. According to the general eligibility criteria the candidate must hold a bachelor's degree, with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA. In case of the candidates belonging to Scheduled Caste (SC)/ Scheduled Tribe (ST) and Differently Abled (DA) category, this is relaxed to 45%. The candidate may possess an equivalent qualification recognized by the Ministry of HRD, Government of India.

Candidates appearing for the final year bachelor's degree / equivalent qualification examination and those who have completed degree requirement and are awaiting results can also apply. The candidate is required to have obtained at least 50% marks or equivalent (45% in case of candidates belonging to SC/ST/DA category) based on latest available grades/marks. 

Hey Aspirant!

Your score is not up to the mark, to be very honest. Because your score in 10th, 12th and in graduation matters a lot to get shortlisted in the IIM. But you may apply for CAT af course but to get shortlisted you must have to score above 99.5 percentile or may be 99.8 to get the chances of getting calls. Because there are lots of students who apply for CAT at the same timw you do. 

So there will be hard competition with these marks you have scored. Please don't get offended. Try hard, practice a lot to get to the 100 percentile, not any college will regret calling you.

Thank you.

Hi buddy, 

Thanks for your question, if you are from general category you are going to suffer a really hard time because IIM's eligibility criteria requires atleast 50% in 10th and 12th..for applying but don't be disheartened because there are many management colleges which doesn't follow this criteria.. 

Hi Ynandini,

Yes, at the time of appearung in CAT counsellings you have to payoff the counselling fee through online modes.

And, after that if you get alloted any particular college then you have to pay off the final admission fees of the course in that particular college.

Good luck.
