What percentile do I need to get into XLRI with poor academics (10th- 7.2 CGPA 12th- 62% graduation- 49.33%) and no work experience?
XLRI, the dream destination for many, might seem difficult to crack, especially if you haven't had a perfect academic record. But here's the exciting part – XLRI examines every aspects of applicants. They look beyond just your grades or XAT percentile. It's challenging, yes, but not impossible! Every year, numerous top students in India aspire to get into XLRI. Moreover, having work experience is a fundamental requirement for admission to XLRI.
XAT score is just one part of the XLRI admission process. To secure your admission, you need to perform exceptionally in several other stages, including:
- You must have at least 5 years of professional experience in roles such as manager, teacher, or executive on a full-time basis.
- Aptitude (General Knowledge, Essay, and Behavioural questions)
- After that based on the XAT score you’ll be called for Group discussion and personal interview.

XAT cutoff is the only criteria for GD and PI calls. I would advise you to search for more business schools. If you have any other abilities or accomplishments, such as in athletics or any other extracurricular activity, you may still be able to get into XLRI despite having a poor academic score. You still have time to apply to XLRI.

For admission XLRI looks at the overall profile of students and not just on the academic record or XAT percentile. If you have done exceptionally well in other avenues of life, such as if have excellent extracurricular, or notable achievements in sports, then you can get shortlisted.
Since your academic record is poor, try to be in the top 5% in XAT, to maximize your chance to get shortlisted.

Your admission to XLRI is very unlikely based on your academic score. As every year some of the top scorers across India apply for admissions in XLRI. Also, work experience is one of the basic eligibility criteria to take admission in XLRI.
The admission procedure of XLRI is not based solely on the XAT score. There are many more steps that you have to ace in to get selected like:
- A work experience of at least 5 years in any of the following: Full-time executive, Managerial, Teaching, or Research experience.
- Aptitude (General Knowledge, Essay and Behavioral questions)
- Group Discussion
- Personal Interview
XAT cutoff is the only criteria for GD and PI calls.
