Your 12th percentage is very less and that will affect your entry to IIMs. You have to score between 99 to 99.5 for a safe bet and yes, graduation percentage matters.

You can either go for self-preparation if you find the topics difficult or not able to regularly practice the problems than better to join a coaching institute. Also, do join a good test series to evaluate your performance. Test series will give you an idea of time management, section selection and performance comparison with others.
