Hi Dhaval,
Please find the link below for various cut off of different colleges:

Some schools accept gap years, but for appearing in an interview, more weightage is given to the work experience. Some candidates prepare for this exams along with their respective jobs. So, that's why most of the big firms don't consider this gap year for preparation as a valid reason.

Hi Krishna,
XAT is a management entrance exam conducted by Xavier Institute. There are few colleges which accept XAT scores like Alliance University, IFIM, ISBR and so on. The fee structure ranges from 7 lakhs to 11 lakhs.

Hi Goutam,
Generally, CAT score cutoff will be above 60 percentile and MAT will be 80 percentile or 90 percentile.

Hi Arshath,REVA University does not consider XAT exam rather they consider CAT and MAT score for management.
