Hi Mahima, first of all I would like to tell that the scores obtained are not sufficient to get into any college atleast for MBA. Colleges generally expect 50-60 percentile atleast to be a part of college that just gives MBA degrees. It would be better if you would prepare hard this year and try to get more marks so that you can be part of a good college. All the best.

Hi Gary, there are some good colleges which can be obtained for 70 percentile in XAT. As per the past trends, some of the colleges are, 

1) IMT Hyderabad 

2) BIMTECH Noida 

3) XIME Bangalore 

4) XISS Ranchi 

5) Calcutta Business School 

6) VIT Business School 

7) TSM Madurai 

8) Jaipuria Institute of Management 

9) KSOM Bhubaneswar 

Most of these colleges expect a cut off of around 65-75 percentiles in XAT and CAT 

Hi Raj !

• For any standardized entrance exams such as CAT , MAT , XGMT etc , the calculation of 

        percentile is the same .

Percentage Calculation :

• Percentage is your marks divided by the total marks multiplied by 100 .

         i.e. ,

         Percentage = (Marks you have scored ) / (Total Marks Possible ) x 100 .

• For example , if you have scored 85 out of a possible 100 , your percentage would be 85 % .

• This represents a reflection of how well you have done in the exam individually. 

• It does not anything to do with how others have performed in the same exam .

Percentile Calculation:

• For calculating percentile , it is important to know the scores of other people 

        in order to calculate your own percentile . Percentiles give you an idea of how well/poorly

        you have performed in the exam . They show you how your performance is relative to that of   

        others'.

• Percentile = (Number of people who have scored lesser than you ) / (Total number of people appearing for the exam) x 100 .

• For instance , if in an exam , you have scored the second highest in the class out of 100 people .

• So this means that your score is better than that of 98 other people and your percentile would be

        98%ile.

• If your rank is 25th in the class of 100 , it means that you have scored more than the 

        scores of 75 people and your percentile would be 75%ile.

Hope this helps , all the best !

Hi Shantanu Kumar,

Thanks for A2A!

60.4 percentile in XAT is a little on the lower side. Similarly your profile is average since all the percentage you have in X, XII or Graduation are in the range of 60's or 70's. With this percentile, I doubt if you will be able to get into any of the top 50  Schools in India. However, there are many other good B Schools which will open their applications now and you can surely apply to them.

Alternatively, you can take an year drop, maybe do a job/internship/part-time job and prepare for CAT/XAT next year.

All the best

Hi Abhishek, first of all the scores seems to be very low for getting admission into some decent colleges. Even Christ University nor Alliance Business school all expect 65+ percentiles, it would be better if you would prepare well and give it a go next year around. Anyhow if you feel you really need to proceed with these scores, here is our pathfinder links which can help you out,
