The Post Graduate Diploma in Industrial Safety and Environmental Management (PGDISEM) program at NITIE Mumbai requires a valid CAT score for admission. The institute does not have any sectional cutoffs for the CAT exam for the PGDISEM program.

However, NITIE Mumbai considers the overall CAT percentile and the candidate's performance in the subsequent selection rounds, such as Group Discussion (GD), Personal Interview (PI), and Written Ability Test (WAT), for admission to the PGDISEM program.

Candidates who score above the minimum CAT percentile as decided by the institute will be shortlisted for the selection rounds. The final admission decision is based on a candidate's overall performance in the CAT exam and the selection rounds.

It's important to note that the cutoffs and selection criteria may vary each year depending on the number of applicants and the performance of candidates in the selection rounds. Therefore, it's best to keep an eye on the official website of NITIE Mumbai for the latest updates on admission criteria and cutoffs for the PGDISEM program.

I suggest you not to score below 6.5 as CGPA 7 is a must to get admission in a good foreign university. However with a CGPA of 6.5 you can go for Government jobs. I know a friend who did not focus on CGPA and played football and today is struggling to get a good job.

It is all the more difficult to get a good CGPA after low marks in the first semester because the professors evaluate you on the basis of previous grades sometimes. However, you will get placement into a decent private company so you don’t have to worry much.

Basically, even after getting admission at a good institute like IIT KGP, you have to keep struggling to score high marks.

If you belong to general category, try to score above 800+ in GATE, to get admission in NITIE. Here is the NITIE cutoff for GATE.

The Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) Lucknow admits students to its undergraduate programs in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Information Technology (IT), and Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) through the Uttar Pradesh State Entrance Examination (UPSEE).

The cutoff for admission to these programs through UPSEE varies each year and depends on several factors, including the difficulty level of the exam, the number of applicants, and the availability of seats in each program.

However, based on the previous year's trends, to get admission to IET Lucknow, you would need to score a rank under 1000 (approximately) in the UPSEE exam for CSE, IT, and ECE programs. 

It's important to note that the cutoff score for each program offered at IET Lucknow is different, and you will need to check the official website of the institute for the specific cutoff score for the program you are interested in.

Additionally, meeting the cutoff score is only one of the eligibility criteria for admission to IET Lucknow. The institute considers other factors such as the candidate's academic performance, the number of applicants for a program, and the reservation policies, among others, for final admission decisions.

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.
