IIM Eligibility

Hi,
It depends on your category. If you belong to General category /OBC, you won't get call from SJMSOM.

Yes, it's based on reservation category. I think, for SC and ST, its 90-95, I think so.

Work experience along with past academic record and CAT score are important factors for getting an interview call for any IIM.

If you have an interview call, try to do as well as possible.

Hi, This was the scenario few years back, but now, if you want to get admissions in top colleges /universities you have to take the test and then interview. Some universities are still taking the test and interviews good placements like Lovely Professional University, Christ University, Symbiosis University, etc.

As 12% is too low and IIM B is typically known for a candidate's profile. So, you have to get higher % in CAT.

Yes, joining a good CAT coaching class will be a good decision.
Career Launcher
Hill Top Center
TIME
PBI Institute
No doubt Career Launcher and TIME has produced good results in recent past for CAT. In my view, TIME and Career Launcher are the best ones to look for.

Yes, you are eligible to do MBA in IIMs. You have to have a good CAT score and at least 2 years work experience.
