No, the students who don't make it to the IIM shortlist of a particular year, they will not be considered for admission. Such candidates can appear for CAT again the next year and try for admission. If a candidate doesn't make it to the first shortlist, they can wait for the second shortlist to release in which they might be selected.

Yes, you can still get into an IIM, but it depends on which IIM you're aiming for. Some IIMs look at your Class 10 and 12 marks, and some don't give them much importance. Your 65% in Class 10 and 79% in Class 12 might make it a little harder at top IIMs, but if you get a really good score in the CAT exam, you still have a chance to get in. So focus on doing well in CAT.
