With such low percentile You can get through tier two colleges only. Also as regards to NMAT you need score of 200+ for Mumbai and Bangalore campus on safer side. To target Top colleges or Tier 1 colleges a minimum of 90 percentile is must in CAT. Last Month Strategy:-- Since, its last month you should not start off with new topics , rather focus on revision and mocke xams where you can identify how much time you consuime for wrong questions and find out right approach to solve the same. You need to select and cherrypick questions to get good score within less time. Hence, its advised to have accuracy and watch atleast one news channel everyday plus one newspaper everyday. You wont get accuracy by leaving questions, try to solve all problems initially and where you go wrong solve such questions more to make your weaknesses redundant, once you do that your confidence will boost miles away. Secondly, give maximum mock tests and make sure you dont repeat same mistakes again. once you're done with that you can then choose and select certain questions in final CAT exam to score great percentile within less amount of time for maximum accuracy. All the best for future endeavors.

Please do not consider your mock test score as the reflection of your final CAT score...be confident about your skills and then prepare the weak area's such that you are comfortable with it...Also make sure that you also write an exam with which you are more comfortable with such as XAT, IIFT, etc., give it a try and know where you stand using mock tests...Lastly and most importantly, prepare a list of colleges which hold importance to you and which are in your range and some colleges as your backup options in case you don't make it to those colleges...I hope this answer helps you

See your percentile is not good enough to get a call from aby average college and mock test are the best way to know your position. Seeing your results it seems your basics are not at all strong and you need tonworl very hard in basics so as to improve your percentile.

As less than a month is left for CAT exam so you need to work very hard in figuring out flaws in your basics and strengthen them. Also along with that you need to give lots of online mock test and analyse their solutions which will help you in overcoming your mistakes and come up with a strategy to attempt your paper which will definitely help you in improving your marks and percentile. You also need to figure out your strength and weakness so that you can attempt those questions where you have high accuracy rate.

Work hard increase percentile hoti 60-70 then you will have a good probability of getting an average college.

All the best for your preparations and exams!!

You have to practice a lot if you want to get into a good college. Mock tests are the best way to practice. It will help you increase your speed and see what areas you are good in and weak in. It the best way to analyse your performance and see where you stand. So, the best thing that you can do is practice as much as you can. Give as many mock tests as you can.

No one can tell chances as of now but you need to improve your scores to get into good colleges. So work hard for remaining days.
