Out of the maximum CAT marks, the CAT 100 percentile score ranged from 70 to 90 percentage score. A candidate has to have scored 140 to 180 points in the CAT to be in the 100 percentile. You stand a high probability of being admitted to IIM Ahmedabad if your CAT result was 100 percent. However, it is not a given that you will succeed in it. For admission to IIM Ahmedabad, however, the qualifying CAT cutoff percentile is 80 for general applicants, 75 for NC-OBC/EWS, 70 for SC/PwD, and 60 for ST candidates. For the general category, the final CAT cut-off percentile is often between 99 and 100, and for the reserved category, it is 95.
