58.4 percentile is not enough to get inside IIMS. But there are lot of campuses which provide similar study pattern as that of IIMS. Some good colleges for this score are as follows: 1. Amity 2. Christ University 3. Vellore University 4. CMS Jain 5. Welingkar 6. IFIM 7. IBS 8. Alliance 9. RVIM 10. MSRIM The most important thing which you should look while selecting a college is your willingness to study in that campus. You can select one from the above.
Best of luck.

Dear Nidhi,
I am very afraid to say that with this profile you can not get good college for MBA. These are the reasons:
1) You have very low marks in CAT. So, in that case, you 'may' get admission in any private college like Amity University-Noida or Asian Business School-Noida. They are also good colleges.
2) You don't have any work experience. Now, every college asks the students to gain job experience. Since, you don't have, hardly you can find any good college for MBA. So Nidhi, my opinion says that either you drop 1 or 2 years to gain job experience and for effective preparation of CAT, GMAT, IIFT, etc., or go to any low-grade priva

Dear Narendra,
Don't take me wrong, but you belong to the general category (I guess), you need to score slightly more in CAT. Still, you do have good marks for good college. If you have significant work experience in your field then you may get admission in any of the following colleges:
1) Management Development Institute, Gurugram.
2) Great Lakes College.
3) Bennett University.
4) Faculty of Management studies-Delhi University (chances are low, but just try for that).
5) IIM-Kozhikode and Lucknow (moderate chances).
I hope that you can get admission in any one of the above-mentioned colleges. If you have 20 or 24 months of work experie

Scholar-Level 17

It will be difficult to get a call from any of the NITs or any good MBA college at this score. This score is on the lower side. Score at least around 85-90 percentile which is required to get a call from NITs. Apart from that, a good performance in WAT-PI/GD-PI and good academic profile+work experience (if any) is favoured during MBA college admissions. You can try through other MBA entrance exams or you can try one more year for CAT.

Are you from the general category? Last year, the general cut-off of IM-BHU, Varanasi went down to 76%ile for the general category. So, you can give it a try. It's the best as far as ROI is concerned. If you are not willing to appear for the 2nd attempt.
