With a CAT rank of 5419, your percentile is around 95 to 97. This means you may not get into the top IIMs like Ahmedabad, Bangalore, or Calcutta, because they usually take students above 98 or 99 percentile. But you still have good chances at newer IIMs and other top MBA colleges.

You can get admission into IIMs like Amritsar, Raipur, Jammu, Udaipur, and Bodh Gaya. These IIMs accept students with lower percentiles, usually between 90 and 94.

Apart from IIMs, you can also get colleges like MDI Gurugram, IMI Delhi, Great Lakes Chennai, and maybe even FMS Delhi or JBIMS Mumbai depending on your category and performance in interview rounds.

You should now start preparing for the interview, group discussions, and written tests that most colleges will conduct after shortlisting you based on your CAT rank.

Taking a gap year to prepare for the CAT is quite a common and accepted approach among MBA aspirants. In fact, it often reflects a clear sense of purpose and dedication. The key lies in how effectively you articulate and present this decision.

Since you completed your graduation in 2023 and dedicated yourself to CAT preparation, you can frame your experience strategically:

What to Highlight:

- Dedicated preparation for the CAT demonstrates commitment and goal clarity.

- Any online courses or certifications you completed (for example, Excel, Python, Marketing, etc.) add credibility and show initiative.

- Volunteering, freelancing, blogging, or content creation—even if unpaid—indicate that you remained productive and engaged.

- Short-term or remote internships are valuable and should be mentioned.

- If you mentored peers or juniors, include this as evidence of leadership or responsibility.

— How to Present This on Your Resume:

You might create a section such as:

Academic & Professional Development (2023–2024)

- Full-time preparation for CAT 2024, focusing on Quantitative Aptitude, LRDI, and Verbal Ability.

- Completed online certifications in [specific courses].

- Participated in mock group discussions, personal interviews, and kept abreast of current affairs for overall profile building.

In interviews, be honest and confident about your gap year. Explain how this period contributed to both personal and professional growth. Business schools value self-awareness, dedication, and the ability to make intentional choices.

If you need assistance framing your resume or drafting a gap justification statement, I’d be glad to help.

Wishing you the very best for CAT. Stay focused—you’re on the right track.

Hello Aspirant,

With an AIR (All India Rank) of 1,60,000 in NEET and in the OC (Open Category) there is a very slim chance of getting an MBBS seat in a government medical college, especially in General Category seats through All India Quota (AIQ), but here are some options:

1. MBBS in Private Colleges: You could get a seat in a private medical college through the state quota, especially in Tier 2/3 states where the cutoffs are relatively lower. The fee would be high compared to government colleges.
2. BDS Seats: You have fair chances for BDS in both government & private dental colleges under the state quota.
3. Deemed Universities: Some deemed universities may offer MBBS seats at this rank but the fee is exorbitantly high (15 to 25 lakhs/year).
4. Management/NRI Quota: If you can afford, you can explore MBBS through management/NRI quota seats in private colleges.
5. Alternatives: You can think of allied health science courses such as BAMS, BHMS, B.Sc Nursing etc., which also have good career scope.

You can also participate in state counselling rounds, as sometimes, seats remain vacant/unfilled, including mop-up rounds.

Hello,

A NEET 2025 score of 333 marks, an All India Rank (AIR) near 3,56,000, and belonging to the SC category from Andhra Pradesh suggest a fair possibility of obtaining an MBBS seat within the state quota, especially in private medical colleges under Category A (government quota seats in private institutions).

In Andhra Pradesh, SC category cut-offs for Category A seats in private institutions generally vary from 320 to 370, influenced by the college and the counselling round. Government medical colleges tend to be more competitive, with the SC cut-off for MBBS frequently rising, often exceeding 400 marks.

Although obtaining a government MBBS seat is improbable, you stand a feasible opportunity in private medical colleges within A category (which offer lower tuition than B and C categories). In Round 2 or the Mop-Up round, you can anticipate improved opportunities, since cut-offs generally decrease when other students move to superior colleges or vacate seats.

Colleges such as NRI Medical College (Guntur), Katuri Medical College (Guntur), Great Eastern Medical School (Srikakulam), Alluri Sitarama Raju Academy of Medical Sciences (Eluru), and Fathima Institute of Medical Sciences (Kadapa) are among those where seats could become available for SC students in subsequent rounds under Category A.

Hope this helps. All the best!

Hello,

Yes, with a 622 rank in IPU CET for MBA and being a Delhi candidate, you have a good chance of getting admission in MAIT (Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology).

You don’t need to worry about not giving the CAT exam. IPU CET rank is enough for admission in MAIT under the CET quota.

Just make sure to keep MAIT high in your preference list during counselling.

Hope it helps !

Yes, candidates who qualify in CUSAT CAT can gain admission to various participating institutes based on their rank. These include engineering colleges associated with CUSAT, such as its own School of Engineering in Kochi, Model Engineering College, and over 20 government and private engineering colleges across Kerala like College of Engineering Thrikkaripur, Co-operative Institute of Technology Vadakara, and MG College of Engineering Thiruvallam. The final seat allotment is based on your rank and your choice of program during the counselling process.

Hello aspirant,
With 375 marks and an AIR of around 2.6 lakh under the EWS category, your chances of getting BAMS at Ayurvedic & Unani Tibbia College (AUTC), New Delhi through Delhi state counselling are slim but not impossible. In previous years, AUTC’s cutoff for EWS category under Delhi state quota has generally closed around 340–400 marks, depending on the year and seat availability. Your score puts you on the edge, so you might not get in during the first few rounds, but you could still have a chance in the mop-up or stray vacancy round if seats are left unfilled.

Make sure to register for Delhi state AYUSH counselling and list AUTC as your top preference. Keep backup options ready in case the cutoff stays high this year.
