Hello,
Here are reasons why your profile is not matching for IIM in spite of 98.9 percentile:
- General category cutoffs : Top IIMs often need 99+ for general pool.
- Sectional cutoffs : One weak section can block shortlist.
- Academics : Class 10/12/grad marks carry weight, lower scores reduce chances.
- Profile diversity : Male engineers face tougher competition.
- Work experience : Many IIMs prefer candidates with relevant experience.
