IIM Bangalore considers a decent past academic record and some extra-curricular for admission. As you have not mentioned your 10th, 12th, and graduation scores, it would be hard to tell whether you have a chance to get in or not. But to get an interview call from the institute, you should have at least 80% overall to be on the safer side.
The CAT percentile cut-off for IIMB is below.
| Category | VARC | DILR | QA | Overall |
| General | 80 | 75 | 75 | 85 |
| NC-OBC | 75 | 65 | 65 | 75 |
After getting a call, converting the interview will depend on you. IIM Bangalore has WAT and interviews for the final selection. To ace the interview, prepare well and practice.
