Okay, so you're wondering about the CAT cutoff for top IIMs as a female doctor, right? It's a bit of a tricky question, but let's break it down. Basically, getting into the top IIMs usually means scoring really high on the CAT. We're talking anywhere from the 95th to 100th percentile for general category candidates. To give you an idea, IIM Udaipur , for their 2025-27 batch, had an overall CAT percentile cutoff of 95 for general folks , with a minimum of 75 in each section (Verbal, Data Interpretation, and Quantitative Aptitude). IIM Kozhikode had a slightly lower overall cutoff of 85 , but still with sectional cutoffs of 75 . Now, here's where it gets interesting for you. IIMs really want diverse classrooms. Because you're a female doctor, you might actually get some extra points during the selection process. This can potentially lower the CAT percentile you need to get in. For instance, IIM Udaipur gives 5% weightage to diversity, which includes gender and your academic background! Keep in mind, though, that the way they do this varies from IIM to IIM, and they don't always make the specifics public. Also, it's not just about the CAT score. IIMs also look at your grades and any work experience you've got. If you did well in your medical studies and have some relevant work experience, that'll definitely help your chances. For example, IIM Kozhikode wants to see at least 60% in your graduation degree. And work experience ? IIM Udaipur weights that at 9% ! So, while the CAT is super important, it's definitely not the only thing they consider.
