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.

Your profile qualify as per minimum eligibility criteria but the final selection shall be made on objective and leadership assessment (40% weightage), the candidate's past academic performance (15% weightage), work experience, if any (10% weightage), performance in face to face evaluation process (30 % weightage) and composite diversity index (5% weightage). Even your expected cat score looks good keeping last year's cut off in perspective.
I wish you all the best for the shortlist and I believe your work experience will come handy in the selection process if you'll deliver with confidence.

There is no difference between people who get admissions through which ever exam them opt for. Once you are in XIMB, there is no difference. It doesn't affect the final placement in any way.

The eligibility criteria is minimum MAT score of 500 and 50% in graduation. They also accept GMAT,CAT, XAT - 50 percentile, CMAT & ATMA - 60 percentile. Post this a merit list is prepared based on scores of all the applicants. However if you have done well in the exams, you should not worry about it too much.

No not necessary.
See CAT was a compulsion to take admissions in PU till the year 2013.
But last two batches i.e 2014 & 2015 batch there was no compulsion for a CAT score.
This year there might b a chance but till now there is no such notification.
So if you wanna be a part of MBA @ PU just be prepared for the entrance test organised by the universiy itself, which will be conducted sometime around May 2016.

If satisfied with the answer kindly reply.
