First of all you need to decide which college you want to target and depending on that you need to prepare for the same. For example if you want to target IIMs then you need to prepare for CAT. You can look up the syllabus on the CAT website. There is nothing new in syllabus, you have already studied everything. You just need to practice and take tests.

I don't think you will get any decent college at 48 percentile. I suggest that you appear for CAT again and try to do better. Here are two links that will give you detailed information about cutoffs and selection criteria. http://www.iimahd.ernet.in/programmes/admission-details/admission-procedure-for-pgp-2016-18-batch.html http://www.iimahd.ernet.in/users/admission/files/Shortlisting Criteria for PGP 2016-18 batch_110116.pdf Let me know if you have further questions

I don't think you will get any decent college at 65 percentile. I suggest that you appear for CAT again and try to do better.

To get an admission to IIM, you will need to write CAT. Applications usually open in Jul-Aug and exams are held in November. Once the results are out, all the IIMs release the shortlist for interview and GD/WAT. If you do really well in that as well you are offered an admission. And before you ask, yes there are some points for work experience.

IIM Ahmedabad does not have a CAT percentile cutoff score. They have started a system of composite score where all the inputs like 10th marks, 12th marks, UG percentage, etc are used. Then an overall score cutoff is calculated. This method has certain advantages like, if you have not done really well in 10th or 12th, you can compensate that by doing really good in CAT.

IIM Bangalore gives more weightage to past academic performances + work experience and less weightage to CAT marks whereas IIM A&C gives high weightage to CAT marks only. So, you've got high chances with IIM A&C if you score well in CAT and medium chances with IIM Bangalore.
IIM Bangalore Final selection (66 Marks) = CAT (20) + X (15) + XII (10) + UG (15) + Work Experience (6). So, 30% of the weightage given to CAT and 70% weightage given to academics + work experience.
