The NTA publishes the NEET UG qualifying cutoffs. Cutoffs for NEET UG 2022 are lower than those for NEET UG 2021. The MCC will hold four rounds of NEET UG 2022 Counselling. Only NEET-qualified candidates (who meet the cut-offs) can register for NEET UG Counselling 2022 for MBBS admission.
The table that you should follow is:
Category | Qualifying Criteria | Marks Range |
UR / EWS | 50th Percentile | 715 - 117 |
OBC | 40th Percentile | 116 - 93 |
SC | 40th Percentile | 116 - 93 |
ST | 40th Percentile | 116 - 93 |
UR / EWS & PH | 45th Percentile | 116 - 105 |
OBC & PH | 40th Percentile | 104 - 93 |
SC & PH | 40th Percentile | 104 - 93 |
ST & PH | 40th Percentile | 104 - 93 |
To successfully clear the first round, you must obtain the minimum score required by the entrance exams the college accepts, such as NMAT (150), CAT (60th percentile), and IBSAT.
If you are selected for the next round, the college will contact you via phone call and email to inform you about the GDPI (Group Discussion and Personal Interview) round. Your academic record, performance in the group discussion, and interview will be combined to determine your overall percentile.
Based on this percentile, you will be allotted a campus. If you are selected for IBS Hyderabad, you will receive a confirmation email after completing all of the aforementioned steps.
I don’t think it's wise to decide to drop out from IIM Lucknow when you already worked hard and cracked the entrance. You even succeeded in the interview and yet here you want to give it all up. Every year the level of difficulty of entrance exams like the CAT and XAT keeps changing. Students who might have scored 90+ percentile one year might score 40-60 percentile next year. It all depends on preparation and mindset. Meanwhile, you have already succeeded and gotten into an IIM so why take it for granted?
Yet if you are adamant about not continuing, I would suggest you just focus on your job and gain a lot of experience. Chances are that you might climb the ladder without an MBA or IIM. Many CEOs and CFOs don’t need an MBA to make them what they are.
Despite it all, if you are appearing again for CAT, then make sure you have a valid explanation of dropping out during your interview.
XIMB is considered one of the Top B schools of the country. Its MBA in Business Management is its flagship course and is coveted by many.

If you are confident that you can convert Top 10 b schools like IIM ABCL, FMS, XLRI, SP JAIN next year then you can take the risk of dropping the year. But to stay on the safer side, going for XIMB is best.
Yes, you can get admitted to Swami Shraddhanand College. My friend has opted for BA (Hons) History in the previous year. He had his choices between Swami Shraddhanand College Aryabhatta college and Satyawati college and after asking reviews and opinions from the seniors and other alumni of the college he decided to get admitted here.
The infrastructure is good and well maintained with a lush green garden surrounding the campus completely. The faculty and seniors are helpful and have good knowledge.

So it is recommended you join Swami Shraddhanand College even if you are from outside Delhi, it won't be disappointing.
According to the report of the German Embassy/Consulate, October 2022, students need at least 11,208 EUR (9.84 lakhs INR) in a blocked bank account to apply for the German Student Visa.
With a graduation score of more than 50%, you are eligible to take the CAT and gain admission to IIM Ahmedabad. With your academic background, admission to IIM Ahmedabad is extremely difficult. With the addition of 5 points for work experience, your chances of getting may improve if you have more than 36 months of experience.
In the academic rating, you will receive the following scores:
10th grade = 2/10
12th grade=1/10.
Graduation=8/10.
To be considered for an interview with IIMA, you must have a composite score of 0.642 out of 1. You will need 0.512 out of 0.7 in CAT score with a 13/30 academic rating, which is 0.512/0.7*300=219.42 marks in CAT. If you live in Delhi and are studying for the CAT, you can be mentored by IIMA alumni.
My friend has got both a profile-based and a score-based call. He had to choose between IIM Indore and SPJIMR so he eventually went for the SPJIMR. IIM Indore alumni told him about the issues the students face during placements owing to the huge batch size. The recruiters offer the best packages to the top students and the rest of the batch ends up with average packages. This made him choose SPJIMR.
As he went for the interview, he soon realized that the other candidates had scores much better than his (97+). This disheartened him with the lowest score (96 something). He knew clearly he had zero chances and left right after the first round. He further said that the campus wasn’t that appealing and IIM Indore and FMS seemed to have better infrastructure. So the bottom line is the chances of getting a score-based call from SPJIMR are very low.
In today’s age and time, the worth and reputation of a college are determined by its popularity in the digital world. People tend to conduct an online search before choosing their college. Now there are many private institutes that provide inflated or misleading data mainly for advertisement purposes. Such institutes are considered high in ranking due to fake figures. The same is the case with IMS. To look good on the internet many private institutes pay a lot of money to magazines or websites and even go to the extent of writing fake reviews
I am not saying my claim is true for all the private institutes. There are also many who have genuine reviews and good reputations because of the quality of education, management, and infrastructure. Mainly the Government institutes provide the most honest reviews as there is no money involved.
My brother is an IMS Noida pass out and from his experience, I came to know the truth that IMS is just an ordinary college which whose last concern is maintaining the quality of education. It's more like a money-making machine. The following points further support my claim
What I mean is that rankings and reviews should be the only determining factor while choosing an institute. The best way is to contact alumni and clear your doubts.
