It requires CAT or JEMAT percentile. CAT score should be 60-70 percentile and JEMAT score should be 70-80 percentile.

It is advisable to score more than 80% marks in UG and more than 99 percentile to secure an interview call from IIMs. Please keep in mind for certain IIMs the CAT percentile cutoffs are as high as 99.5 and 99.67. Hence to get calls from all IIMs you will need to score more than 99,7 percentile in CAT. Also if you fail to secure more than 80% marks in UG, you will not be able to receive calls from certain IIMs.

While applying for CAT, you must have selected several IIMs for which you want your applications be considered. Similarly for XAT you must have selected XLRI atleast. However to apply to other institutes like FMS, S.P.Jain, IIFT etc, you will need to separately apply for these institutes. If you haven't done so, I suggest you do if you want to be considered for these colleges.

Unlike other IIM's, IIM Bangalore gave very high weightage to previous academic performance over CAT score. Your previous academic profile looks well and good to get a call for GD/PI if you score 97+ percentile in CAT.
All the best.

Yes you do have a chance of getting into IRMA. Perform well in ISC test. IRMA gives less weight to CAT and more to GDPI. Follow IRMA Admission Help Desk 2016-18 on facdbook.

PGDM course is such a way that you can specialize in any of the specializations such as operations, marketing, HR etc. PGDM general is a general PGDM wherein you don't specialize but do a general course as similar to general MBA. Regarding the CAT score, VJIM accepts almost all the exam scores. So you either need CAT score or MAT score or CMAT score. Any one of the score is enough.

I'll give two cases for a analysis:
1)A person having good overall academic profile say above 90% in all 10th,12th and graduation and overall work experience of 4 years but he scored only 80% in CAT due to lack of preparation. He is never going to make into any of the top 5 IIM's.
2)A person who got average academic profile say 60% above and got 0 work experience but he scored 98%+ in CAT with thorough preparation, he is definitely going to make into one of the top 5 IIM's.
In India weightage given to overall profile is low and the CAT score is extremely high. If you think you can go with both CAT preparation and Work altogether then get

Hey
If you really score what you are expecting then your college and cat score might cover for your low score in 10th and 12th. In that case you have to do very well in the interview process. But if you score less in cat then the chances a little low.
