Is it possible to get into MDI Gurgaon with around a 96 percentile in the CAT with the following academic credentials a 76 in class X a 68 in class XII a 61 in graduation?

MDI Gurgaon will send you a call if you score above the sectional cutoff and 95+ percentile overall in the CAT exam. However, for the final selection, past academics are also considered. If your past academics are not strong, it may decrease your composite score. But, if you get a good percentile in CAT, that can compensate for your past academic performance and increase your chances of converting the call.

Additionally, it is crucial to smartly justify the reason for your average academic performance during the interview. If you were active in extracurricular activities, won competitions, or had any other significant achievements, these will act as positive points for you and help you stand out.

The interview process, which includes Personal Interview (PI), Written Ability Test (WAT), and Group Discussion (GD), has a 30% weightage in the final selection process. Past academics and other factors are given a 15% weightage. CAT percentile has the most significant weightage of 55%.

In summary, you may receive the call at the mentioned percentile, but to convert it, you must prepare well for the interview and present yourself in the best possible way, highlighting your strengths and addressing any weaknesses.
