No, I dont believe it will be an issue since you have an Overall Pass Certificate and a Respective Percetage. However,assuming you are from General Category having an average Academic record you should Work hard for CAT and target securing above 99-100 and above to have fair chances for IIMs as well as Other Top Management Institutes.

For more information about CAT do follow the link below

https://bschool.careers360.com/exams/cat

Dear aspirant,

The minimum sectional cut off that you need to score as per the previous years for iim ahemdabad is 60 percentile and the aggregate cut off is 70 percentile. It is a very neck to neck score. So, maybe you have cleared the cut off to become eligible to get a call but still it's very difficult.

Yes, assuming you are from General Category, with a great academic record in school, having a 7.5+ GPA from an Old IIT, having a CAT Percentile Score of 99.7+ you have fair chances in securing a Call from atleast 3 of the Top 6 IIMs, IIM ABCLKI.
