Hello Rahul

Students are called for interview and the next rounds on the basis of their aggregate score which comprises of various factors such as CAT marks, 10th and 12th and graduation percentage, work experience, etc. 
Apart from the CAT scores, you need to have a strong profile to get a call from IIMs and since your class 12th scores are not good, you need to cover that loss from your high CAT percentile.
You need to score 98+ percentile to expect a call from IIM Calcutta

Hope for the best.
Good Luck!

Hi Abhinav

All of the three colleges are of national importance.There will be no issue of infrastructure ,placements,faculty...etc.etc.

You can feel relaxed for any of the colleges you have mentioned .There are slight ups and down but eventually if that matters you can analyse by yourself once.

All Three are Tier1 college.

• the most sought after career in IIT is programming and Data Science, and in both of which the reputation of ISI and IIT are similar.
• Financial Firms are exclusive recruiter at IIM C.
• ISI is far better in terms of placements.(almost 100%)
• At IIT large culture and alumni network

Choose according to your priority.

Good Luck



Hello Aspirant,

Hope you are doing well.

Its it difficult to predict that what percentile you can score by the number of mocks you have appeared for. As there are many factors depending on the topics you are covering, the level of qs and much more. However. The following are some suggestions that will assist you in achieving a 99 percentile.

Keep your focus on your goal.
From the beginning, make it clear that your goal is to get a 99 percentile rating. Put your mind to it that you will not accept anything less than a 99 percentile on any test. Be strong and confident in yourself, and just believe that you will be able to accomplish your goals. Set your sights on the IIM you wish to attend and strive hard to get the percentile required to be admitted to that institution.

Exert yourself to the maximum.
From the outset, put forth your best effort. Put out your best effort and devote your time and energy to your studies. Solve a minimum of three to four mocks each day. While completing each mock test, treat it as if it were the real CAT exam. Immediately after each mock, look for incorrect answers and practise in order to avoid repeating the same errors. Push yourself to your boundaries and work as hard as you possibly can. Work much harder on the subjects that you find difficult. Continue to practise all of the subjects, even those in which you are already proficient. When answering each question, use caution and full concentration on the task at hand.

Create tactics that help you achieve your goal.
First and foremost, review the test format. Understand how many questions you must get correct in each area in order to get a 99 percentile score. While practising mocks, put those tactics to the test. This will inform you as to which approach is more effective. When it comes to the real exam, choose the approach that has been tried and tested the most. Allocate the amount of time you will devote to the section and the maximum amount of time you will spend on each question.

Each time you execute, evaluate your results.
Every time you practise, take a moment to reflect on your performance. Make a note of any errors you make. This will assist you in determining which areas you are proficient in and which ones need more practise. As a result, make a list of the questions you'd want to tackle and write them down. This will prevent you from losing marks needlessly. Make sure you aren't overconfident in your abilities and that you aren't blind to your shortcomings. Make a concerted effort to transform your shortcomings into strengths.

Do not give in to peer pressure.
One characteristic that distinguishes the 99 percentile scores from the less percentile scorers is their ability to cope under duress. You must maintain your composure during the test, no matter what the circumstances are. You must be calm and patient in the face of the circumstance. A lot of the time, there are questions that the applicant is unable to answer correctly on the first try. In such cases, it is best to disregard the question and go to the remainder of the paper's solutions. You will not waste any time in this manner. If you worry and focus only on answering one question, it's likely that you won't be able to finish your work in time for class. Make sure you're in a good frame of mind and that you believe in yourself.

Hope you got the answer to your question. Incase of any queries, feel free to question. Have a great day!
