Hello! Since the IIMs consider the overall profile of the candidates before shortlisting them for the interview rounds, the CAT score alone won't be given much importance. For the old IIMs, a score of 99+ percentile should be sufficient to get a call. And, for the new ones, 95+ percentile should suffice. All the best.

Hi Aniket,For XLRI, you don't have to worry much about your academic scores. Focus completely on acing your XAT exam and you will stand a great chance to get admission in XLRI. However, IIMS do consider academic background, so it will be quite tough to get into the top IIMS even if you ace the CAT exam.

Hi Akshat,
You need at least 50% in your graduation to be eligible for entrance exams. As far as IIMs are concerned you need to score beyond 97 percentile and also have a good consistent score in you academics throughout, they do check that. Good Luck Mate.

Hi Oviya,
To get through any IIM, you need to appear for CAT. Only if you score distinctively high i.e. around 96 percentile (depends on year on year) you might stand a chance to get a call from them. Aim to score 98-99 percentile. Also, they would check your academics throughout and you need to meet up to their criteria to get through the interview and GD rounds. Start studying hard and smart and appear as many Mocks as you can. Also refer to various authors and apply for test series at different places. As they say the more, the merrier. Good Luck Mate.

Hello,
Yes, they are sufficient, provided the basics are strong and one diligently gives the mock tests on a regular basis and analyzes them for the mistakes. All the best.

Hi Sandeep,
Here's is the eligibility criteria to get into an Executive MBA at a top IIM. A Bachelors degree or equivalent in any discipline (Minimum 15 years of study as per the education system in India)
A graduate should have minimum 4-7 years of full time work experience post qualification
A post graduate should have minimum 4-6 years of full time work experience
A good GMAT Score with Leadership profile
So, you aren't eligible for the same. Sorry. Hope it helps.
All the best!

Hi Siddharth, I would suggest go for JBIMS. It is no point getting into an IIM just for the brand name.

Hello!
The syllabus is more or less the same for both the courses. Just that the IIMs confer PGDMs whereas JBIMS confers MMS degree (since it comes under Mumbai University).
