Hello there,

With your academic profile (General, Male, Non-Engineer) , you should target MBA colleges that focus more on CAT percentile than past academics.

Target Colleges & Minimum CAT Percentile:

  1. Top IIMs (A, B, C, L, K, I, FMS, XLRI, SPJIMR, MDI, etc.) – 90-99+ percentile (Tough due to low 12th marks)
  2. New & Baby IIMs (IIM Trichy, Udaipur, Rohtak, etc.) – 85+ percentile
  3. Tier-2 Colleges (IMT, TAPMI, GIM, KJ Somaiya, etc.) – 75-85 percentile
  4. Tier-3 Colleges (BIMTECH, NDIM, ITM, etc.) – 60-75 percentile

    What to Focus On?
  • Score high in CAT (85+ percentile recommended)
  • Apply to non-CAT colleges (XAT, NMAT, SNAP, CMAT)
  • Strengthen profile with work experience or certifications
  • Perform well in GD-PI rounds

You can get a good MBA college with strategic applications and high CAT/XAT percentile.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.
