How much of the percentage in boards and marks in JEE (Mains) are required to get admission in IET-DAVV?
The Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) at Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) considers both the board exam percentage and the JEE Main score for admission to its undergraduate programs in engineering. However, the minimum eligibility criteria for admission to IET-DAVV may vary from year to year and also depend on the category of the student.
Here are some general guidelines:
- Board exam percentage: Generally, a student must have a minimum of 60% to 75% marks in their 10+2 or equivalent examination from a recognized board or university. However, the required percentage may vary depending on the category of the student and the specific branch of engineering they wish to pursue.
- JEE Main score: Students must also appear for JEE Main and obtain a valid score. Again, the required score may vary depending on the category of the student and the branch of engineering they wish to pursue.
Meeting the minimum eligibility criteria does not guarantee admission to IET-DAVV. Admission is granted based on merit and the availability of seats in the preferred branch of engineering. It's always a good idea to check the official website of IET-DAVV or contact the admission office for the latest information on eligibility criteria and admission procedures.
Can I apply to a DU college in the second cut off even if I was eligible for the first cut off but did not take admission at that time?
Yes, you can still apply for college admission. All you need to do is bring all necessary documents, but keep in mind that you will be marked as a Defaulter (a Defaulter student fails to appear in the previous cut-off when he was meeting the requirements).
According to University Regulations, a defaulter can only take admission on the third day of that particular cut-off.
You should go to the college where you want to enroll on the first day and follow the admissions procedure. You are suggested not to tell any teacher about the same because teachers sometimes forget to check if students are defaulters or not. If anyone gets to know, then you will have to come back again on the third day of admission.
Will people be eligible to apply for PGDM BM at XLRI, Jamshedpur if one has secured less than 50% in their graduation?
Having friends at XLRI, I can only suggest you keep in mind these few facts if you're passionate about getting into any high-quality B-School.
- Understand that people at B-Schools care about your marks very seriously.
- The competition level at any B-School would be so intense that the panel would not just consider people with a great academic background. They would take a month/year's work experience into consideration, too.
The status that XLRI or any great B-School carries would not be put at risk by admitting candidates who do not have a quality academic background. You have to at least maintain a minimum of the criteria that these institutes demand.
- Recruiters that approach these reputed B-Schools for placements belong to different firms. For instance- Finance (Citibank, SoftBank, Goldman Sachs Group); Consulting (PWC, BCG, McKenzie); Marketing (P&G, Nestlé, HUL), and others.
- These companies check the candidate's academic background.
- The minimum percentage level they take into consideration for shortlisting is 60% at the graduation level. If your score is beyond that and you have been a university topper, it would be a plus.
Because of the reputation factor, FMS/XLRI/SPJIMR, etc. would not put their reputation at stake by admitting students with a poor academic background. Therefore, instead of focusing on that, it will be wise to focus and perform well in other exams like - MICAT, NMAT, SNAP, IIFT, CAT, XAT so that you can get a call from any one of the top 20 B-Schools of India.
Despite a 50% score in your graduation, you still think about getting into a reputed institute like XLRI. This shows how much faith you carry in yourself.
What is the minimum percentile for making it to HRM in XLRI (not for getting a call?)
XLRI Jamshedpur is one of the premier management institutes in India, known for its two-year postgraduate management programs - PGDM (Business Management) and PGDM (Human Resource Management).
XLRI accepts scores from multiple entrance exams such as XAT, GMAT, and GRE for admission into its programs. The admission process includes two stages - the first stage involves shortlisting candidates based on their entrance exam scores and profile, and the second stage comprises a written ability test (WAT), group discussion (GD), and personal interview (PI) rounds.
To make it to the HRM program at XLRI, one needs to clear the first stage of the selection process, which involves obtaining a minimum percentile in the entrance exam. The minimum percentile required for the HRM program at XLRI varies each year and depends on various factors such as the number of applicants, the difficulty level of the exam, and the overall performance of the test-takers.
However, based on previous years' trends, candidates generally need to score above 90 percentile in XAT to get shortlisted for XLRI's HRM program. It is important to note that clearing the minimum percentile requirement does not guarantee admission to the program, as the final selection also considers the candidate's profile, work experience, academic performance, and performance in the WAT/GD/PI rounds.
In summary, the minimum percentile required for making it to XLRI's HRM program varies each year and depends on the number of applicants and the overall performance in the entrance exam. Candidates generally need to score above 90 percentile in XAT to get shortlisted for the HRM program.
Can I do MBA from IIM Ahmedabad after BSc?
As long as you fulfill all the criteria required to get admission to IIM Ahmedabad, your academic background does not matter. That being said, here are the requirements to get shortlisted for IIM Ahmedabad admission.
- 80% above in 10th and 12th (any specialized subject)
- 70% above in graduation (any stream)
- 98 CAT percentile (may be lower, depending on your graduation course)
Anyone who has fulfilled the above criteria is eligible to get admission to IIM Ahmedabad. What actually matters is your performance in GD/PI. However, it’s important to note that the above criteria are general and the chances of admission depend on the individual profiles and performances. Fulfilling these criteria increases your chances of admission to IIM Ahmedabad but does not guarantee it.
An extra point to remember for you is that you will be getting diversity points because of your BSC background. This will help you get admission even with a low CAT score compared to engineering or BCom students. AS An BSc student, you will have to make the interviewers believe that you ha always targeted an MBA and not an MSc.
Do you know anyone who got into a top b-school (IIMs, XLRI, JBIMS, NM, IIFT, FMS etc.) with average UG percentage?
Yes, I do know a friend who managed to get calls from many top B Schools despite having an average Undergraduate Score. Her profile looked like this
- 10th- 76%
- 12th- 68%
- UG- 64%
Although her marks witnessed a gradual decline, she was lucky enough to study at XLRI. Past academics are considered as one but not the major factors at XLRI, unlike IIMs that focus a lot on past academics. A good XAT and GD-PI score can compensate for your poor academic record at XLRI, FMS, and JBIMS. NITIE is a top B School that does not consider past academics at all. My friend with her average profile managed to convert NITIE, XIMB, and all the IIMs except for the top ones obviously. So we can safely assume that admission into these top B Schools is possible even with an average profile provided that you score excellently in the CAT or XAT and the GDPI round.
What is the passing criteria in Thapar (complete)?
There are a number of criteria that Thapar University students need to fulfill in order to pass. A few of them have been listed below
- Students have to maintain a minimum of 75% attendance including tutorials, lectures, and labs. Students who don’t fulfill this criterion face detention and have to repeat the course next semester.
- Students have to score 33 marks after combining tutorials, practicals, quizzes, and semester exams. However, they will still pass the subject if they score less than 33% at the End of semester or any other exam.
- Students scoring between 33 and 27 in one subject, and more than 33 in others, get a D grade without repeating the course.
- Students scoring between 33 and 30 in two subjects, and more than 33 in others, get D grades in both subjects
- Students who fail to fulfill the above 2 criteria get an E grade in a subject and can appear for an exam, the marks of which are substituted as END SEM marks. If your marks become more than 33, then you get a D grade in the subject,
- If a student fails to secure more than 33 even after this exam, then they have to repeat the subject in the next semester and they will be getting a D grade on passing the subject.

How tough is getting into JBIMS?
It certainly is quite tough to get into JBIMS, especially for the full-time MMS Program. I’ve r the last few years JBIMS witnessed 3 admission procedures
Percentile required 99.5: Initially followed an admission procedure that included CET (200) + GD (17) + PI (17) + Past Academic Record (2) + Work Experience (2). This procedure was discontinued around 2012. Only 120 students were allotted a seat out of 10000 and the percentile required was around 99.5.
Percentile required 99.85: This admission procedure did not include the GD-PI round and the admission was done solely on the basis of a written test. This was a book for candidates who had average academic backgrounds and were very excellent in written English. However, this process could not focus on soft skills and other aspects of the candidate's profile so were discontinued.
Autonomous Procedure: The current procedure is an autonomous one wherein the CAT/CET scores are considered along with GD PI WAT rounds. The weightage given to the written test has been reduced so as to enable candidates with lower percentile like 98.9 to get a chance too. They can prove themselves in the GD-PI round and hence make it into JBIMS. Approximately from every GE one candidate gets admission. One may think this is easy when in reality the competition is extremely tough due to the quality of the candidates. Each one of them is talented in one or the other areas and gives an edge to the other. There is no safe score as one may not get in even after scoring 99 percentile whereas one may get admitted even with 98 percentile. It all depends on your overall profile.
