Dear student,
You academics are very good, please keep your graduation scores also in the same way.

For the cat point of you
You have to clear All the sectional cutoff of each section which is 85% percentile for open and overall cut off of 95% percentile.

If you get to clear this cut off you will definitely get the call of all the major IIMs.

Hey Narendra,

Firstly congratulations on scoring such great score in your +2and 10. Eligibility criteria To  get a call from IIM  is firstly you have To appear in CAT exam.  For appearing in CAT  you need a bachelor's degree with atleast 50% marks or equivalent GPA.  But the IIM does not only consider your CAT scores(which should obviously more than city off) but also your academic cut off,  past academic performance and other experiences also.
However it is important too note that the students who clear CAT are called for second round WAT(written ability test)  followed by personal interviews.
The cutoff in 2018 for CAT was 80 for general category. It is also important To know that scores of CAT and performance in PI are given more importance.
All the IIM's how differ eligibility criteria for admissions, so prepare accordingly.

Wishing you all the success for future:)

Hello,


Your marks in 10th,12th and graduation are extremely impressive and now you should focus on preparing for CAT.For BBA you can try to get 80% and that would be enough.But if you want IIMs just focus in getting 99 percentile.

I hope this helps.
