Hi there

Among the best Asian business schools, IIM Calcutta stands out due to its emphasis on balancing academic rigour and relevance and retaining plurality and variety in form, substance, and technique. Some of the best academics India has produced in recent years have called it home. IIM C, however, does not provide a Bcom programme.

I have scored 94% in cat'21. My acads are 8/8/7 and I belong to the SC category. What are my chances of getting into FMS? I have calls from IIM C,L,I,K and CAP round.

Dear aspirant,

As you have secured 94 percentile in cat 2021 and considering you are from sc category so let me tell you that the cut offs depends on various factors like number of candidates appearing in the examination, number of vacant seats in college, previous years cut offs and difficulty level of the paper.

So accordingly the dynamics gets changed every year so you have the chances to get into this college as per the previous year trends.
