Hi Student,

According to SNAP 2018, the marks to percentile score was such that an overall of 70 to 72 marks would fetch a percentile of about 97+ percentile. SIOM Nashik cutoff stands at around 85 percentile. Therefore you have a good chance of getting a call provided that you clear the sectional cutoffs. Last year the cutoffs were such QA- 20, VARC - 25, LR - 18 , GA - 8. However since the general awareness section has been removed from the SNAP 2020 you can expect a slightly higher cutoff in each section.

Hoping that you found this helpful. All the best for all your endeavours.

The basic eligibility criterion for pursuing M.Sc. (Pharmacology) degree is M.B.B.S. / B.D.S. and has secured at least 55% marks (50% for SC/ST candidates) or B.V.Sc./ B.Pharm. or B.Sc. degree course (3 years) or Bachelor of Physiotherapy (4 1/2 years course) with at least 60% marks (55% for SC/ST candidates).

Hello there. Hope you are doing good. The cutoff for XIMB goes around 90 percentile every year. It could be high or low depending on the cutoff scores that varies every year. Since your score is near to 90 percentile and if you have a work experience that is worth considering for admission into MBA program. Then you can at least give it a try. You never know what will be the exact situation in the upcoming admission processes.

So, my suggest for you is to definitely give it a try.

I hope you found this answer helpful. Good luck for your future.

Which application form are you enquiring about?

Your CAT weightage is considered only upto 40-60% based on the IIM that you are applying for. Each IIM has its own selection criteria. Even the baby IIMs require CAT percentile 40-60% and the rest is considered from your 10th and 12th, Graduation marks and diversity factor. Most IIMs will need atleast 18 months of work experience. Considering all these factors, a call from any IIM will be difficult even with 95 percentile. Because only 60% of your CAT score will be considered for shortlisting your profile for next rounds. In that case, you will losr out on your 10th marks and work experience.

Paras, the expected cut off for IIM K for EWS is as follows:

QA: 80

VARC:80

DILR:80

Overall: 90

The minimum sectional percentile needs to be 80, your SSC and HSC  percentages need to be 60. With your Academic profile, it is likely that you will be shortlisted for IIM K. We hope you opted for IIM K.

According to the official page, IIM K atleast needs an overall percentile of 90. IIM K has a 3 phase selection process. Once you have been shortlisted based on your CAT, SSC and HSC percentages, you will be called for Personal Interview and Writing Ability Test. A shortlist of candidates in each Category will be created on a computer based index score based on the performance in CAT, HSC asnd academic diversity criterion.

The Aggregate Index Score Computation looks like:

CAT Index Score:  75%

HSC: 20%

Academic Diversity Factor: 5%

IIM K will conduct the PI and WAT in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Kozhikode, Mumbai and New Delhi. In this process, the candidates will write an essay and a professional resume which is followed by a PI. The essay topic will be just announced at the venue before the WAT. During the PI, the panel will evaluate the academic efforts and disposition, general awareness and social disposition, attitude and personality and articulation and communication of each Candidate.

The Final score will be computed as follows:

CAT score: 40%

PI: 30%

Essay: 20%

Resume:10%
