Hello,
You got the very good cat percentile.
Many top bschools can give you a call but you need to work on certain factors which help your cause.

Prepare for GD PI and WAT Although the final round of selection process may not carry a very high weightage and a shortlist is almost a confirmation to final admission offer, a good performance inGD/WAT and PIrounds would strengthen your admission chances.



Consider retest If the reason for your low score is lack of preparation, you may consider appearing for CAT again this year. By now, you must have known your weak areas where you need to improve. Taking the lesson from your previous performance, start afresh to secure a much higher percentile and target admission to your dream B-schools.

Tapmi, spJain , bit mesra, NIT and others

Cheers !!

Congratulations Aman for your good score in CAT examination!!

 

Aman with 89.45 percentile as a general category student, you won't be able to get calls from any IIMs. But below is the list of colleges where you have a good probability of getting a call and converting it.

 

  • TAPMI - Manipal
  • Bharathidasan Institute of Management (BIM), Trichy
  • Department of Business Economics, University of Delhi
  • FORE School of Management, New Delhi
  • Great Lakes Institute of Management (GLIM), Chennai (PGDM Two-Year Programme)
  • Institute of Management Technology (IMT), Ghaziabad
  • Institute of Rural Management Anand (IRMA)
  • K.J. Somaiya Institute of Management Studies & Research (SIMSR), Mumbai
  • MISB Bocconi, Mumbai
  • National Institute of Banking & Management (NIBM), Pune

 

 

There is again no surety of selection or getting a call from these colleges because CAT marks are not the only parameter involved in the selection procedure. After CAT exam every college in which you have applied prepares a merit list to call students for next round of interview based on your aggregate score which comprises of many parameters such as CAT marks, 10th, 12th and graduation percentage, work experience, engineer or non-engineer whose weightage varies for all different colleges.

 

And after your second round of interview again a new merit list is made which also includes marks of your interview, GD and WSAT which along with CAT marks generally have the highest weightage.

 

All the best!!
