Hey Rajesh

Your question can be explained in simple words- IISc is basically for science and research whereas IIM is for management. If you want to make a career in science you should go for iisc whereas if you are looking for a white collar job you should go for iim. ALthough iisc provides for M.Management but still it is not the first choice for some. I will give you the information I have from those who have studied in IISc-  There is 100% placement in management studies with average ctc 16 lakh per annum.  Professors are generally  PhD. holders from IITs or IIMs with the fees being  around 8 times lower than the iims.

Hello,

To get admission in Indian Institute of Management Bangalore you need to give exams like CAT/GMAT/GRE entrance exams. Candidates are shortlisted on the basis of the CAT/GMAT/GRE entrance exams. Shortlisted candidates attend a written test and personal interview, and provide two letters of reference from persons who know them closely in terms of their academic/professional performance. Please click the below link to know more.

No the only source to get into IIM Bangalore is through CAT entrance examination only. After giving the CAT entrance exam, you can get the seat through your merit score. Seats through management quota are also available but for that also you need to pass the CAT entrance examination.

Best wishes. Thank you.

Hello Aspirant,

Its obviously IIM Bangalore. Because the IIM A,B,C has the high reputation for MBA and these three colleges have the first three NIRF Ranking 2020. I would suggest you to prepare for CAT and get through the seat for IIM Bangalore. The average salary is about 15 to 20 LPA.

Hope you get a seat in IIM-B.

All the Best!!

Hi Koushik

Predicting your selection IIM Bangalore on the basis of your academics only will not be sufficient. The selection in IIM depends on following factors:

• 10-12 Academics
• Graduation Score
• CAT Score
• Interview/WAT
• Extracurriculars
• Work Experience

One needs to have a good profile overall and to be on a safe side you must score 99+ percentile to compensate overall and perform well in the Interview. Also Work Experience fetches more points in the selection process.

Dear Aspirant,

To get into top IIMs like A,B,C the student should score above 99 percentile for confirm call from IIM. For reserved category more than 85-90 percentile is safe score. Your academics are quite good. But only CAT percentile will not let you fulfill your dream to do MBA from top colleges. You should also focus on WAT, GD and PI from now.

Hope this helps

Dear Aspirant,

One thing that seeps through is your confidence in yourself, which is a very good sign. Your marks may not impress and it is definitely not a true reflection of a student’s aptitude. Having said that the CAT examination is a test of a student aptitude and there is every possibility that you can do well provided you have a flare to excel in their testing pattern. The test consists of three sections:

• Verbal Ability/Reading/Comprehension

• Data interpretation & Logical Reasoning

• Quantitative Ability

We strongly suggest that you do a few mock tests on their website https://nta.ac.in/ which is under the student’s section. Once you understand the pattern then you will be able to access on how to prepare for the examination.  The standard is extremely high and even if you are OBC you need to in the above 96 percentile to stand a good chance.  The Logical Reasoning is very simple, there are around 3300 seats with 200,000 writing the exam, hence only  1.7% gets in and by correlation 100 – 2% = 98 Percentile. No work experience need at this stage. So now you know what needs to be done!

Good Luck
