CAT 100 percentiler, IIMA Alumnus, Co Founder at Cracku

The CAT score required to gain admission to the top IIMs is determined by one's profile. The admission process at IIM Ahmedabad is a little complicated, and it is determined by a number of factors other than the candidate's CAT score. The following are the broad criteria for receiving a call from the IIMs:

  • Academic profile, including grades in 10th, 12th, and undergrad.
  • Academic Variety.
  • Working experience
  • Diversity in gender.
  • Evaluation by category (EWS, NC-OBC, SC, ST, PWD).

The following are the weights assigned to each component in order to calculate the Final Composite Score:
 

COMPONENTS WEIGHTS
CAT Score 25 Points
Personal Interview 50 Points
Analytical Writing Test 10 Points
Application Rating 15 Points
Total 100 



Here is a quick summary of the admissions process for IIM Ahmedabad.

Why does IIM Ahmedabad have low percentile cut offs when they are only admitting students at 99.5+ percentile?

Namrata Das Posted On : December 5th, 2023

The 99.5+ percentile requirement is for candidates from an engineering background.

This is because 90 percent of CAT aspirants are engineers. 

A few years back, one of my friends with less than 90 percentile in CAT got a call from IIM Ahmedabad, and converted successfully. He was from the general category, and had a non engineering background. 

The aim of IIM Ahmedabad is to maintain batch diversity. 99.5 percentile means roughly 1000 candidates, far more than the quota for engineering background. 

The final cutoff is much lower for candidates from other academic backgrounds. Moreover, the final selections are not solely based on CAT percentile.

One of my friends graduated from NIT Trichy and here is what he shared about this question. Honestly, it might get a bit tough for you.

But this is not the end of the world, because you stand a chance to get into either Production Engineering or Metallurgy Department.

Since your JEE Mains score is 134 your ranking would be between 50000 and 75000. The cutoffs also depend on the category you are from.

Here are some of the branches you can try for. JEE Mains Cut off Rank for NIT Trichy Home State Quota General Category (2020) –

What are the cutoff marks for a CBSE student from Karnataka for Anna University?

PT
Pranjal Tiwari Posted On : December 28th, 2022
Studied at College of Engineering Guindy, Tamil Nadu, India

Simply add two parts Mathematics, one part Physics, and one part Chemistry to get a total of 200.

For example, if you received 90 points in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry, your cut-off is 90/100 (Math) + 45/50 (Physics) + 45/50 (Chemistry) = 180/200. And you must compete with students from all other states, except Tamil Nadu, against their marks calculated in this manner, regardless of whether they are CBSE or not.

What is the minimum marks required for selection in RUHS medical college through general quota?

MA
Momin Azad Posted On : October 25th, 2021
studied BAMS from Manipal University

As you must be aware, cut-off changes each year. RUHS is the topmost college in Jaipur because it is located in the capital city and is the second most preferred college for most students after SMS.

If you're from an unreserved category with marks 590 and above, and a percentile between 96 to 98, as is required by government medical colleges, and a rank under 400, for the state quota rank list, then you must surely get it.

What GATE rank is required to get an MS and a PhD in IIT Madras?

RB
Ranjini Banerjee Posted On : March 30th, 2023
Research Scholar at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras

Unlike MTech, admission to MS or Ph.D. is based more on their interview and aptitude test than on GATE score.

  • For some of the master's programs, like MS candidates are shortlisted after a round of technical interviews. IIT Madras prefer students with GATE scores of at least 90 percentile or more.
  • For Ph.D. too, candidates will be considered if they score between 1000-2000. Here, a rank less than 800 is considered excellent and such candidates will be considered for Ph.D. courses through GATE scores.

Thus we can say that the cut-off required for joining MS and Ph.D. programs at IIT Madras, for example, is lesser compared with the cut-off required for admission into the MTech program

What was the cutoff for BVSc in LUVAS Hisar?

BS
Bhumi Sen Posted On : October 16th, 2021
BVSC from Lala Lajpat Rai University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Hisar, Haryana (2022)

The cut-off marks of any institute vary every year and you can not rely on the previous year data. It is calculated based on the number of students that appear for the exam. It varies for students from the general category or reserved one. 

If you belong to the general category you might want to work a little harder to make it to the list of students eligible for admission. 

In 2019, there were 34 seats for general category students, and the next year, it got reduced to just 26. As the exam carries 200 marks, so roughly we can estimate that the cut-off might be around 165 for the general category. 

You can utilize the time in preparing precisely and solve some papers too. Revising the topics more and more will get you accustomed to the question pattern.

What is the cutoff mark to join TNAU?

JP
Jiya Patnayak Posted On : October 6th, 2021
Studied B.Tech Agricultural Engineering, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India (2020)

The cut-off you require mostly depends upon the course you are intending to pursue, your community (presuming your home state is Tamil Nadu itself) or ICAR exam score, and category.

On a general note, usually securing an average of about 190 or more will supposedly keep you on the safer side to help obtain admission in any course of the institute. For more information about the UG course, you can follow the official website.
