Hello Rohit,
For getting admission in Indian Institute of Forest Management( IIFM), one needs to appear for CAT or XAT. If one scores the requisite percentile (which differs according to categories), one will have to appear for GD and PI. Based on GD PI and other credentials, one will be given admission to the institute. One of the cut-off criteria is the percentage in class 10th, 12th and graduation which should be a minimum of 50% in each for general category and a minimum of 45% for other categories.
Wish you good luck.
