Dear Pooja
To be very honest and frank with you i would say that you will not get anything IIMs with this score.
My advice to you would be to prepare again and apply next year for MBA entrances. Also focus on NMAT,CMAT, XAT, IIFT,SNAP and other MBA extrnace examinations than CAT.
ALl the best
Hi Pooja,
You can explore admission opportunities at institutes like Thiagarajar School of Management, Thirupparankundram , School of Management Studies, University of Hyderabad , AIMS Institutes, Bangalore , PES University, Bangalore .
You can also, explore other colleges specifically listed here for 60-65 per centilers
CAT accepting B-schools for 60-65 per centilers
As it is a reality, at a percentile of 66.70, the possibility of IIMs calls or from top MBA institues like SPJIMR, MDI is almot nil (for general category candidate).
Hope this helps!
