Hi Huzefa,
You should look to score above 99.9 percentile in CAT to stand a reasonably good chance of getting into FMS Delhi.
All the best!

Hi Prathamesh,
FMS Delhi gives majority of weightage to CAT score itself, while shortlisting or even during selection.
Try to score above 99.9 percentile in CAT and you should stand a chance, inspite of the low academics.

Hi,
If you are not interested in giving CAT and CMAT then you can try for MAT, XAT, SNAP etc. Direct admission are not possible for MBA in good colleges.

Hello Sandeep,
Yes, you can apply for CAT and MAT both for getting a good MBA College. Other courses are you can do MBA in specific field which interests you as if you are more inclined towards handling things and processes Operations will be good for you, if you are good with humans then Human Resource Management will attract you and if numbers are your love then MBA in Finance going to be awesome for you. But before applying to any college please see their education criteria if there is any cap on for Graduation percentage or not. I think you are satisfied with the answer.

To calculate the percentile of a candidate, the IIM (conducting the exam) follows the CAT marking scheme. The answers will be checked and a raw score will be determined. This raw score will be adjusted through a process called as equating. Then, that score will be normalized across the three sections. Thereafter the normalized score secured by the candidates will be further converted into percentiles for the purposes of shortlisting. However, the exact procedure (including a formula, if any) hasn't been explicitly mentioned by the IIMs, quite strange.

To get into top colleges you need to write MBA entrance exams. Apart from CAT you can go for IIFT, CMAT, SNAP, XAT, MAT, NMAT. Exams like CMAT, SNAP, MAT are comparatively easier to crack than CAT. To get direct admission into any college, you need to check with the respective college.
