I am assuming you are from general category. A lot depends on your profile. Assuming you have a decent overall profile(85%+ throughout), you will be needing above 99 percentile to get a call for the next round.

All the best!

For a seat in IIM Ahmedabad, your overall percentile must be above 90. ONly then will you get a call to participate in subsequent rounds of admisison, which include the Written Ability Test, Group Discussion and Personal Interview.

Common Admission Test (CAT) is a management entrance exam conducted which is the qualifying exam for getting into  IIM Ahmedabad.

A score of around 90 percentile should definitely invoke a call provided academics are good (above 85% throughout). A background in agriculture/allied sector would give a slight advantage over other candidates provided one meets other requirements and hence you can also get an interview call at a lower CAT percentile based on your profile.

The pattern of CAT is as follows: Quantitative Ability (QA) section will be having arithmetic problems. There will be 34 Questions in QA Section. DILR Section comprises of the calculation intensive portion including Graphs, charts , tables etc. This section will have total of 32 Questions. VRC section of CAT Exam includes RCs, Para Jumbled questions, grammar etc.This section will have total of 34 Questions.

After the CAT results are declared IIMs conduct further rounds of selection that includes WAT and Personal Interview. The scores of all these as well as your CAT score will decide your selection in an IIM.
