Hello Amar Jeet, Scoring a good percentile requires several efforts.Which would be a mixture of good time management technique, Speed, regular practice. You do not require to solve all the questions but you need to solve those questions which you can identify can be solved fast. Regular practice is essential.Previous year questions can be a good guide for you. Good Luck !.

It's going to be very difficult to get a call from any good B-School at this score. At least, 80+ percentile is required to get a call from tier-II or III B-Schools. You can give one more chance to CAT if you are in final year of your graduation. Else, you can prepare for other MBA entrance exams like CMAT MAT and score good percentile. Most of the tier-II or III B-schools accept these scores from admissions.

Hello!
Unfortunately, there is not even a decent B-school anywhere where one can get admission with that low score in the CAT exam. And the ones you might get won't simply be worth enough to pursue MBA; a total waste of B.O.Th your precious time (2 years) and money (in Lacs). I suggest you to either reappear for CAT (or other exams as per your wish) next year or focus on the other upcoming exams like MAH-MBA CET and MAT.
Wish you good luck!

Dear Sunder!
I'm afraid to say that with 34 percentile, you can not even imagine to be in top B -School. You know that in today's market, where even 2 graded colleges are asking for 85+ percentile. Your 34 will stand nowhere. Hence Sunder, my suggestion is that you do two things; (1) Take a year drop and again appear in CAT exam and try to clear it with 95% tile. Not just CAT but prepare hard for GMAT also. This will maximise your chance of success. (2) During this year drop, font just spend your time in coaching but gain some job experience. This will enhance the chance of selection. Because you know that how much this work experience

Hello Mehakpreet,
You have got good percentile. But admissions in IIM are not entirely dependent on CAT score but on many other factors. Hence, I would advise you to keep up the momentum.
