Hello aspirant,

Your kid has a good profile even in the general category with a BTech from IIT Delhi, three years of excellent job experience in a leading industry, and a 96 percentile in the CAT. He has a strong chance at reputable MBA schools like IIM Shillong, IIM Udaipur, IIM Trichy, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, and others, depending on interview performance and profile match, even though the top IIMs often require higher percentiles.

Thank you

Hope it helps you

With 96 percentile in CAT, good work experience and a BTech degree from IIT Delhi, he has a fair chance of getting calls from good MBA colleges. However, for top IIMs, the cutoff for General category is usually higher. Final selection depends on CAT score, academics, work experience, interview and profile. He should apply to a mix of top and upper-tier MBA colleges.
