IIM

Admission to IIMs (Indian Institutes of Management) or other top B-schools depends on a specific percentile in the CAT, although the percentage is not usually constant. To get admission to top IIMs such as IIM Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and Calcutta, one requires 99+ percentiles for getting admission. The final call for admission depends upon other factors, however, like the candidate's academic background, work experience, and performance in the interview. This generally comes in a percentile range that stands at competitive between 90 to 95, though requirements of B schools will vary hence every B-school should be scrutinized for exact demands.

While a CAT score of 90 percentile may qualify you for consideration at IIM Visakhapatnam, it does not ensure admission because competition is fierce and the final selection process takes into account a variety of variables. IIM Visakhapatnam has a comprehensive strategy that considers CAT scores, academic performance, work experience, and performance in the Personal Interview (PI) and Written Ability Test (WAT). A 90 percentile is a good result, but strengthening other parts of your profile, such as academic consistency, extracurricular achievements, and interview preparation, can increase your chances. It is critical to prepare for the PI and WAT rounds, which play an essential part in final selection at IIMs.
