I've got 65% in 10th, 60.2% in 12th and 64.5% in B.tech. If I've scored 99+ percentile in CAT, will i get a call from IIM?

hey newin,

Yes you can get calls from all the new IIM's and other MBA colleges also. You won't get a call from Old IIM's like IIMA, IIMB, IIMC, IIML and a decent chance to get a call from IIMK. 

For more details about which colleges you will get with you cat score visit https://bschool.careers360.com/pathfinder/cat

Hope that helps

all the best

Hey,
Well,Indeed.
See,there are about twenty IIMs in India. All IIMs have different eligibility criteria. Your academics indeed play a big role in giving edge to your applications. You really need to be exceptionally great in academics if you wish to make it to top IIMs. However,the biggest game changer is CAT. Well,yes. You need to ace CAT to do MBA in India. If you score above 95 percent,or 99 percent in your case,you will definitively get a call from IIM. In that case,your academics would not be given much preference. Even after getting a call,the admission will be through Group Discussions and Personal Interview.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.

hi NEWIN, there is a low chance to get a call from IIM, BECAUSE of you comparatively low CLASS 10 AND 12 MARKS. 

you could get a call if you have done something exceptional in life,

but with this situation you chances are 2/100.

I' ll share a personal incident with you, 

MY uncle who is a software developer also had similar marks as of yours but had 80% in class 12.

he was very happy with the result of the CAT. but he did not get a call from even a single IIM.

I  HOPE MY ANSWER HELPED YOU.

Hii,

If you score 99 percentile in CAT exam you will definitely get call from any one of the IIM. If you are from a reserved Category you will have higher chances of getting a call from IIM. Your final admission to IIM also depends on CAT score, WAT, Academics, GD &PI.
