The minimum CMAT percentile required for XISS Ranchi is 73 for Human Resources Management and 50 for Rural, Marketing, Financial and IT Management. You can definitely get a call from from XISS for any of the branches you opt. Unlike other colleges XISS doesn't have their first year syllabus as common. Once you take admission for a certain branch you'll study that only from the very first year. The interviews and GD processes are also conducted separately for different branches. Your final selection will entirely depend on your performance in the GD/PI rounds which will be soon conducted in the month of February. For Human Resources Management the competition is usually very tough as students getting 99 percentile also appear for the interviews, so you'll have to perform exceptionally well considering your CMAT scores. And for the other branches you can have good chances of getting selected.

The final selection depends on the following factors along with the weightage assigned to them

Entrance exam scores =40%
Academic Record =20%
GD=5%
PI =30%
Writing assessment =5%

If you're targeting XISS then you must go either for Human Resources Management or Rural Management. The average package offered this year for Human Resources is 9 and that for Rural Management is 6-7. The other departments have an average compensation package of 3-4 lakhs.

Good Luck
