What is the domicile cutoff for the XIMB?

Sudeshna Bhar
SagardeepStudied at XIMB

To apply for admission to XIMB (Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar), you need to have a three-year Bachelor's degree (or equivalent) from a recognized university with at least 50% marks. Even if you expect to complete your degree by a certain date, you can still apply.

The XIMB cut-off is based on various entrance exams such as XAT, CAT, GMAT, XGMT, and NMAT. The cutoff figure is the minimum score required to be called for a personal interview. However, you should keep in mind that the cutoff is just a primary filter and only those who score high enough can hope to get final admission.

The XIMB cutoff figures may vary slightly from year to year, but the differences are usually minor. If you plan to take the XAT exam, you should aim for around 90 percentile to meet the XIMB cut-off. For the GMAT, the cut-off is 550 marks, and for NMAT, it is 220 marks. It's important to note that NMAT is considered only for selected courses.

Therefore, if you're interested in pursuing a management program at XIMB, you need to make sure you meet the minimum requirements and aim for a score that's higher than the cutoff figure to increase your chances of getting final admission.

What percentage of questions does one need to answer to clear XAT and get admission in XLRI or XIMB?

Priyanka GhoshStudied at Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (2019)

There is no definite percentage of questions you need to clear in order to secure yourself a seat in XLRI or XIMB. The obvious answer is every year the question paper difficulty level varies and so does the percentile cutoff.

Simply, your chances of getting a seat in both these institutes purely depend on your percentile just like JEE-Main rank is the criteria for national-level institutes.

My friend took admission in XIMB in 2018, the scores of their batch were between 56.5 to 89 out of 150. Here the person scoring has 100% percentile whereas the person getting 88.5 will be close to 99% percentile. Hence, the percentile cutoff varies each year.

For example, for admissions in 2019, the percentile cutoff was:

  • XLRI Jamshedpur: BM – 91.25, HR – 88 (With Sectional Cutoffs)
  • XIM Bhubaneswar: 94 (With sectional Cutoffs)

Here are few tips to secure a high percentile in these exams:

  • Focus on the accuracy of your answer. Do not just beat around the bush or select an answer which doesn’t hit the accuracy.
  • Try to solve at least 60% of the total questions. For the rest, you can solve the ones you know properly.
  • Always aim for the highest mark, you never know if you are the one having a 100% percentile.

Therefore, thinking about percentile cutoff is in vain until the results are out. As the cutoff will totally depend on your performance, it is best recommended to focus on your performance in the exam. After all, your success depends on your hard work and fervour towards your goal.

What is the approximate XAT cutoff percentile for getting a GDPI call for HRM/Business Management/Global MBA from XIMB Bhubaneswar?

Jayant ThakurCAT trainer who is an MBA from XLRI and BTech from NIT-Bhopal

When it comes to the cut-offs for XLRI's HRM and BM programs, it is important to note that they are generally quite high. Specifically, for the HRM program, XAT cut off at XIMB is typically around the 85+ percentile. For the BM program, the cut-off is typically around the 90+ percentile.

While these cut-offs may seem quite high, it is important to note that they are only the minimum requirements for being considered for the final conversion process. In order to have a good chance of being accepted into the program, you should aim for a 95+ percentile or higher cut-off. The competition for these programs is extremely high, and a high cut-off can help to set you apart from the rest of the pool.

While achieving a high cut-off is important, it is not the only factor that is considered during the final conversion process. XLRI also considers other factors such as work experience, academics, performance in group discussions, and personal interviews.

In summary, while an 85+%ile or 90+%ile cut-off may be sufficient to be considered for the final conversion process for XLRI's HRM and BM programs, respectively, it is recommended that applicants aim for a cut-off of 95+ percentile or higher in order to have a better chance of being accepted into the program. Additionally, other factors like work experience, academics, and performance in GD and PI will also be considered.

I got only 59.61 percentile in DILR. But in English and maths I got 97 and 88 respectively, overall 90.71. Will I get calls from IMI Delhi and XIMB?

Ritesh Prasad
Akriti Banerjeelives in New Delhi

If you have an aggregate percentile of above 90%, you can go with IMI Delhi as the marks are not evaluated subject-wise. However at XIMB, they have mentioned that they will have a sectional cut-off, but you are above 50% in all the sections.

But before you choose any of the institutes, you should ask yourself, if you put enough effort into quants and DILR while preparing. If the answer is no. Then, it will be better to prepare for another year and aim for a better score.

If you put in the hard work now, you can get into a much better B-School like IIMs, SPJ, etc. A better school means more academic pressure, but in the end, you will end up with a better CTC and a reputed company. In corporate life, pressure is not available, so why not aim to do it with a better salary?

If you put in 18 hours of work for 6-7 months, your percentile will definitely improve. And if staying motivated is a challenge for you, you can get a mentor who will push you to do better.

So, although IMI and XIMB are pretty good options, it will be better if you try to better your percentile.
