Indian B-School Cut-offs & Percentile requirements
This is an attempt to compile the likely cut-offs for various business schools for admissions to their MBA/PGDBM programmes. Unless specifically mentioned, the cut-offs given below are for the flagship programmes of the respective institutes. All cut-offs are for open/general category students and unless mentioned the cut-offs are in percentiles and not percentages (%) or absolute scores.
Wherever possible, the cut-offs mentioned have been sourced from the respective b-schools, else it has been predicted based on past and current data plus personal interactions and experience. Though I have tried to minimise mistakes to the best of my knowledge, please forgive should a mistake have crept in. The cut-offs mentioned may not be the lowest cut-off but of the lowest point after which very few students would get a call. Please confirm this information with at least one other source before making any final decisions, and use the data prudently.
IIM Ahmedabad - CAT- 98.3 percentile
IIM Bangalore - CAT - 92 percentile
This year, IIM Bangalore has given huge weightage to work-experience thus bringing the cut-offs down. I have personally seen students not getting calls with 99.8 percentile!! ( this student had very good scores across sections but no work-experience)
IIM Calcutta/Kolkata - CAT - 97 percentile
IIM Indore - CAT - 98 percentile
IIM Kozhikode - CAT - 98 percentile
MDI Gurgaon - CAT - 97 percentile
cut-off for MDI Human Resources programme would be about 95 percentile
Mudra Institute of Communications, Ahmedabad (MICA) - CAT - 90 percentile
MICA also accepts XAT and GMAT scores. Though there is no confirmation for the same, it's widely believed that MICA expects a high English/Verbal score. Yet, quite a few Engineers do make it through so there is no bias against any academic groups.
Institute of Management Technology (IMT), Ghaziabad - CAT - 95 percentile
May not be considering sectional cut-offs
International Management Institute (IMI), New Delhi - CAT - 93.6 percentile
You also need to fare well across sections as IMI considers sectional cut-off as well.
FORE, New Delhi - CAT - 88 percentile
Quite a few very high scores, with percentile over 98 in the CAT were not given calls - FORE may have an upper cut-off.
NITIE, Mumbai - CAT - 97 percentile
Sectional cut-offs considered, only for Engineers
XLRI, Jamshedpur - XAT - 95 percentile
Goa Institute of Management (GIM), Goa - XAT - 87 percentile
T.A. Pai, Manipal (TAPMI) - CAT - 93 percentile
Sectional cut-offs required
University Business School (UBS), Chandigarh - CAT - 93.6 percentile
Sectional cut-offs: don't know for sure
Nirma, Ahmedabad - CAT - 90 percentile
K J Somaiyya, Mumbai - CAT - 83 percentile
for those without any work-experience the cut-offs may jump to over 88
Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management - CAT - 85 percentile
Great Lakes, Chennai - CAT - 85 percentile
Work-experience required
Welingkar, Mumbai - CAT - 85 percentile
ISWBM, Kolkata - CAT - 80 percentile
IMDR, Pune - CAT - 70 percentile
IMFR, Chennai - CAT - 70 percentile
Amity, Noida - CAT - 70 percentile
Amity also has its own separate entrance test called AMCAT, you need to score over 60 approx out of 100, there is no negative marking here. You can also enter through MAT with a score of 600 plus.
SDM, Mysore - CAT - 75 percentile
Birla Institute of Management & Technology (BIMTECH), Greater Noida - CAT - 80 percentile
You may apply through MAT as well. BIMTECH also has a separate category of admissions for industry sponsored candidates.
Alliance, Bangalore - CAT - 82 percentile
Kirloskar, near Bangalore - CAT - 70 percentile
Jamnalal Bajaj (JBIMS), Mumbai - MAT percentile of 99 plus
the chief entrance test is Maharastra's state test, the Common Entrance Test (CET) or what's also known as MH-CET or M-CET
Symbiosis Centre for Management & Human Resource (SCMHRD), Pune - CAT - 94 percentile
the chief entrance test is the SNAP, a score of 75 should do, though like other Symbiois colleges, SCMHRD also factors in other parameters like work-experience and educational background before arriving at the GD/PI shortlist.
Symbiosis Institute of Business Management (SIBM), Pune - SNAP score of 83.75
IMT, Nagpur - CAT - 90 percentile
S P Jain, Mumbai - CAT - 89 percentile
SIIB, Pune - Internation Business - SNAP score of 76.75
SIIB, Pune - Agri Business - SNAP score of 51.00
