Dear aspirant,
There's no right or wrong time. CAT is held once a year and there's a two-week window for taking the test. So, you may choose it during that window only. My experience would be to take it either early in the window or in the middle of the window. There's no data to support that argument but it is a feeling that I have after two CAT attempts. MAT is held in May, September, December and Feb. Anyone can be opted for. Most students prefer Dec. as it falls in line with other entrance and you've warmed up already.

Dear aspirant,
IIM-A is the numero uno B-School in India and only the creme-de-la-creme make it. Your profile is good, though your class 10th marks can lead to a rejection. That said, if you have work experience or extracurricular excellence, you may have an outside chance. Traditionally, the CAT cut-off for IIM A is around 99.6 hence you need to check for that. Also, if not IIM A, your profile is excellent for several other top B-Schools. All the best.

Chances are very less to get calls from good government MBA colleges but you can try for NITs. Durgapur, Rourkela, Hamirpur and few others might accept this score for management school. You can try for other state engineering colleges if they have a management wing. Generally, government colleges (even tier-II/III) have good ROI and have very fewer seats for management, hence it will be difficult to get one.

To take the CAT, it is mandatory to have pursued atleast a three year graduate course and secured 50 percent marks in the graduate course. For SC/ST, the required pass percentage is 45 percent.

Dear aspirant, Please note that MBA is a huge investment of time and money. Two years of your youth are invested in that! And you do it generally once. Hence, try to get the best college you can. I am sure that with better and more focused preparation you can get into the 80 percentile tier which will enable you decent schools. In India, only the top 30-35 colleges are considered worthy to join and at your percentile, none of them will be accepting you. 58 percentile is not the end of the journey for you. Reconsider your preparation and make small changes and I believe you can hit the 80 percentile for sure Hence, my advice would be to
