Dear Amit, there are 20 IIMs that accept CAT score. Now each IIM has different selection criteria. IIM Kozhikhode doesnt consider 10th score while IIM Indore considers 10th, 12th and Graduation score as well. You havent mentioned your Criteria as well. But based on.previpus trends,

FMS, Delhi needs 95 percentile.


IIM Shillong: 92 percentile


NITIE Mumbai: 91 percentile


IIM Bangalore, IIM Calcutta, IIM Lucknow, IIM Indore, IIM Kozhikode, IIM Tiruchirapalli, MDI Gurgaon, IIM Udaipur, IIM Rohtak, IIM Ranchi, IIM Kashipur, IIM Raipur, IMT Ghaziabad, IMI New Delhi, XIM Bhubaneshwar and New IIMS need 90 percentile.

This is provided your 10th, 12th and Graduation scores have been good. IIM Khozikhode gives 7.5% weightage to 12th and Graduation scores while IIM Indore gives 10% weightage to 10th, 12th and Graduation scores. Because CAT exam will be held at different slots, CAT scores will be normalised to ensure equivalence in the difficulty levels of the exams for both slots. IIM Kozikhode will normalise the CAT scores using percentile equivalence. Adjustment of location and scale differences of score distributions across different norms and then scores will be normalised. These scores will be then converted into percentiles for shortlisting and selection purposes. Other than IIMs there are almost 100 Institutions that accept CAT score. For admission to IIMs even if you score, their cut offs, you might fall short in the Academics section. Neverthless, if IIM is your goal, then your score should be

General Category: 95+

OBC-NCL: 85+

SC: 65+

ST: 55+

It will be diffcult for you to get a call from any IIM'S , but if you score good marks in your graduation and good percentile like above 95 percentile plus after graduation if you take a job and show a work experience in any field for a year or two , so there will me chances for you to get a call from good colleges if not IIM'S . Getting into MBA is tough but after you get into MBA it is the best business field to study . All the best
