There is no college bias in IIM selection. Selection is purely based on meritocracy. If you crack CAT and do well in GDPI you stand fair chances to get selected in IIMs.

It depends upon the IIM you are targeting, every IIM has different criteria to select students and give different weightage to the graduation marks. Having said that, if there is a genuine reason why you were not able to complete your degree in time, it can be taken into consideration because there are high chances that even if you are able to crack CAT and sit for an IIM interview this question can be asked. Prepare your answer well. Don't lose hope and start preparing for CAT, the sky has limits. All the very best!!

Hello Veran,
Looking at your CAT percentile, I would say that there are low chances for you to get admission in BIMM or BIIB because they generally prefer students who have CAT percentile above 60. But yes, you can give it a try because if you will perform well in the GD/PI and are able to impress them with your knowledge then you can have good chances. All the best.

You can pursue your CAT preparation from the final year of graduation and appear for it. Having good resume or CV is most important for getting job opportunities and call Letters. You can quantity your skills and projects you have undertaken and add all technical jargons to make it look appealing.

CAT exam score is used by top BSchools of India whereas MAT score is used by Tier II and Tier III B-Schools. MBA from top B-Schools can put your career on high pedestal. MAT is relatively very easy for CAT aspirants. Therefore, you are advised to prepare and appear for CAT. As a standby option you can appear for MAT also.
All MBA specialisations are equally good. You can choose any based on your interests and personality traits to excel in professional career. Engineering grads prefer Marketing and finance as MBA specialisation.
