dear sir,
unfortunately I was unable to secure 60% in PCM in 12th standard.now,if i clear the cut off's in CAT,will that be a flaw during my admission in any of the iim's?

yes, unfortunately that will be a problem afterwards or your form may get rejected as you dont fit in the eligibility criteria of IIM's but it can be taken into consideration later on after a long debate but i will suggest you that if you are confident enough then you should give CAT exam..
good luck...&
all the very best even if IIM's don't take you, still then you will gain a lot of confidence... but i hope they will ....
byee take care.. prepare well..

sorry my friend, if you dont get 60% marks , then there is no chance to get admisiion in IIM, because to get admission in IIM you have to get above 60% marks.

dear friend,
if you haven't score 60% in your PCM,the interviewers would put up the question which you need to justify it rightly about not being able to score more than 60% .
for this you need to check the total pecentage of marks including other subject as well.
and if you good in that then it will not matter in IIM.

Dear,
every course & institution is having some eligibility criteria
if any one wanna get admission in it then we must have all the things which they are including in eligibility
it's right IIM is including eligibility criteria of min. 60% marks
but don't worry
don't lose your confidence
there is many more chances for other courses
so please i will advice you hope for the best
& look towards your further future

dear friend
no you cannot admit to IIM without 60% PCM in 12th standard.
you must have 60% marks.

good luck.

hey CAT never consider you marks scored in 12th.....
for getting in IIM institute you have to secure more than 99% in cat exam,if you dont then you will not be able to get admission

hi friend
there is no such rule that you must get 60% in 12 standard.you need to score more than 99 percentile in CAT exam.only then also they look for an experienced one.so if you are the one then go for it.

dear friend,
it does not matter much if have not scored more than 60%in 12th exam.they might ask you the reason behind which must have a proper explanation.moreover you must score more than 99 percentile to get you till there.
all the best.

dear friend
it is not possible to get admission in iims if you have marks below 60% just try for other colleges.
ok
good luck

i think you can forget about getting admission into iim,
they demand a minimum of 60% in inter and and they are going to reject you

hey CAT never consider your 12th marks.....the admission in IIM is tatally based on your marks which you have obtained in the CAT exam.......so dont worry about your 12th marks and try to score more marks in CAT exam....

sir,i have 50% in 10th,65% in 12th.am i eligible for sitting for cat exams?

sir, i dont have 60% in 12th.
can i take admission in other intitutes othjer than iims
pls ,list them.

Dear friend,

It will not be a major problem for you if you don't have 60% in 12th.
The eligibility for admission in IIMs is graduation from any branch with minimum 50% marks from a recognised university.
So just try to crack the cut-offs of CAT.

Best of luck!

hello dear

look, without 60% PCM in 12th standard, you can't take admission in IIM.

as to take admission in IIM, minimum 60% marks is required.

but you may select other colleges.

all the best.........

Respected Sir ,


i have 56% in 10th and 68% in 12th and 76% in my graduation.
so am i eligible to get the admission in IIM'S..any of them ??????????
My id is -> [email protected]

sir plz help me and tell me the correct way .Plz.....

Dear friend

do not be dishearten,to appear in the CAT exam ,the eligibility is only to secure 60% marks

in graduation in aggregate. If you will do better in the CAT exam then your +2 marks

will not be considered. So, prepare for CAT with full of enthusiasm.

Best of luck

without math in 12 is their any problem to get admission in bba?

hi i am priyankar.my percentage in 12th exam is 56%.i am studying now bca.is their any problem to get admission in iim?

dear friend

i think it will be better if you forget your admission in IIM colleges

don't worry there are many colleges these are not want 60%
you can apply for this colleges
one things that to do MBA then you must have to qualify CAT or MAT like this exam

have a good day

SIR i hve got 50 % in 10th and 70% in 12
Can i think of a IIM

hi friend,

IIM's CAT exam is only concerned with the marks in graduation only not with marks obtained in 12th and even specifically in PCM subjects since it is not a technical appearance exam.
It is good that if you clear CAT exam, this would not even make any hurdle in selection in exam.

Hey there's nothing to do with the marks scored in 12th.To be eligible for CAT then you need to secure at least 50% in your graduation level.If your from reserved Category then you just need 45% in your graduation level.

So,prepare well for your CAT exam.If you get good marks in CAT then you need to go through the interview conducted in IIM's where they can ask about your poor performance in 12th.But if you got a good answer for it then there is not much trouble.

all the best

remember nothing impossible........

so don't ask this kinda stupid question..
always think ve..

hi,
some say 60% is required as minimum for getting a call from iim after you fulfill the 99 percentile condition.though i have a pretty good percentage during my 10th-84% and in 12th it was 68%..in graduation it was 81%..i have the information that even if one scores 99 percentile in cat,but you need to have atleast 70% to get a call from iima,is that so??since i do not fulfill the eligibility criteria in my 12th..i am talking only about iima..kindly reply..

sir i got 54.6% in my 12 th and 61% in my 10th and 72% in my graduation ......sir if scored 99.99%ile in my cat .............can any iims call me or not ...plz help me sir i m afraid about my fututure.............sameer from allahabad........

dude you will get if you score 99.99% in cat ..they only check your 10th and 12th percentage during interveiw prepare a good answer and you wil get selected...all the best... i got selected so can you..

In present scenario Acads have gained mountainous weight-age in IIM admissions..
Even if you getting very high CAT percentile you will probably not get a call since you wont have good wiegted score .. and if you get a call you will face difficulty justyfying 60%..and others with high percentage will get selected.. my suggestio would be to lower your aspirations and try for other colleges rather than hurting youself after CAT/IIMs

dear sir,
i got 72% mark in pcm in 2009-2010.can i get admission in iim in 2010.and what did i do for this.

your past academics are good
but the IIM criteria change every year.
but you have good chance if you score above 98%tile than you can get a call from few IIMS
but if you want to get in to IIM-A or B than get above 99%tile.
all the best

Respected All,

I've started hating my self, I got just 64% in 12th (82% in 10th) and 74% in BE ( 3.5 GPA).I am working in MNC (10 months exp). I am not able to prepare for CAT due to my low marks in 12th. I envisaged that IIM wud be just a dream for me. There is a family reason for my low percentage in 12th but I know no one will listen to me.
Please help me out. Please give me some source where i can find guys who got addmission in past two years, with low percentage in 12th.

sir i have secured 54% in pcm in 12th and 66% overall and 80% in 10th.will that create a problem if i am willing to take admission in iim?

Hi ,I have got 78% in 10th and 60.03% in 12th with 3 years JOB experiences in a MNC,Do I eligible to get IIM call,if I get a good score?

I have secure 40% in pcm in 12.then i m applicable for admission of B.E??

sir i did my 10 2 in MEC 88% can i get in iim

No, it will not create any significant problem if you did not get at least 60% in 12th board.
But you must have at least 60% in your graduation. The better your record is, the higher the chances of your admission to IIM.
You must not have any backlog. It will create a bad impression on interviewers.

If ur record in Bachelors degree is good, then it wont be a big problem...but even if after 12th ur academic performance was not god, then I am sorry, they will kick u out even if u get 100%...If u r good with extracurricular activity, it will be a point for u

It will not be a big problem if ur Bachelors record is good...but even if ur academic performance is poor after 12th, then u r sure to get kicked out even if u score 100%...They need the greatest brain from the country who are determent & hardworking and not the genius one who studies at last moment and scores 100, thats the reason they see ur 10th, 12th and graduation record and THIS IS THE REASON WHY 12TH REPORT CARD IS CONSIDERED VERY IMPORTANT....if u have some other talent like any sport or general knowledge or any currcular activity which u feel u r better then the rest and is genuine, it will be + point for u.....all the best for CAT...its not easy getting 99 there
