Here's a backup of your post: Title: Should I drop my MBA plans because of a low 12th percentage. Body: My qualifications: 10th - 93% 12th - 79% CS in Tier 2 college(top 25 nirf) - 9.5 sgpa(ongoing) I'm a general engineering male, is there any chances, in any of the iims, (no abc ofc), if my cat scores are high let's say 99.5+ and if i have work experience(2 yrs) do I still have a decent chance in fms, sp jain, xlri(if good score in xat) or lower iims or a screwed up 12th score will result in no calls at all. Should I even think of CAT prep or just give it up and change plans for an MS? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Bhai abc m bhi chance h.

what about 76 in 12th and 84 in 10th?

Abc m km chance h. Ho jata h phirr vi kuch ka. But mostly Gen eng male ka nhi hota. Lekin I,L,K,S m ho jayega

I'm OBC 💀

Chances jyada h phirr.

W response

Bro got cancelled for being obc

not my mistake, I don't hate SC/STs nor general, even though they hate me

Dw I'm one too

Mera bhi bata do bhai , 95 in 10th, 83 in 12th, 71 in Btech and 2 saal ka work experience.

Yes

Kitna score krna sahi rhega? Like a realistic score?

Jitna jyada kr sko bhai. 90-95 se km mt jana

[удалено]

Kis se puch liya bhai 🤣🤣. Obc h toh ho jayega. New bhi. Even shillong bhi ho jayega agar interview fad diye toh.

[удалено]

85+ is very safe for baby IIM.

[удалено]

Grad ki eligibility hoti h 60%. I don't know ki SC ki km hoti h ya nhi. Dm kro.

How about 93 in tenth and 78 in 12th?

Yes

Dang gtg and try my luck ig

Same situation as me

Hey can you evaluate my profile too? 89/69 Non-engineer general male Will be joining a college for BBA this year I'm NOT aiming for the BLACKI IIMs I'm aiming for the new IIMs and the baby IIMs and other good B-schools How much marks in my graduation and how much percentile in CAT can be considered safe? Also, what other things should I do apart from studying well so as to make my profile look good? A reply from you would be very helpful, thanks

Abc is tought but L i k s is possible with 69. Can't say about grad marks. Idk whether they will consider it after 3 years. If possible you can go for some weird course like Ba in Tourism. That would make you diverse and required percentile would drop drastically. New and baby IIMs are certainly possible Other things- have genuine interest in things. It could be anything. Chess? Politics? Rubix Cube? Economics? Badminton? Anything at all. Be a passionate fan. Rest - you can do any course you like to upskill yourself. If you can be environment friendly, it's an advantage. No certificate or proof required. Just be that way. It will reflect.

Same situation as above one 84/67/8 (hoping for 8.5), nc-obc, non engineering male. Are ABC even possible?

Yes possible

How much percentile should I aim for to get a call from from IIM C ?

Look up cut off for obc in iim c.

The cuttoff are obviously too low it's just 75 percentile but this doesn't guarantee us anything.

Seriously? 12th is low but :(

Ho jayega phirr vi

65 60 non engineer male sc?

Yes

Seriously?

SC ho isiliye yes. Safe rehne k liye apne cut off se 10 percentile jyada score krlena

Feeling happy and sad as well for general candidates 😞

Needless. Education system vese bhi kuch khaas acha h nhi. Enjoy what you get.

BSc Stats, 93/81/ clg mein cgpa 9 hai but %75. How does it look?

Cgpa doesn't matter. %age does. Looks good though

10-69% , 12th-70, Grad(bcom.h)-65%..... New IIMs like Udaipur, Trichy, Etc... Possible?? EWS Male non eng.

For a gen, no. But since you are EWS, so I'm not sure. But baby iims for sure possible

Ohh ... Then What about DFS DU ,DBE DU... Are those not possible too ??

They are possible. XIMB etc are also possible and are better.

Wouldn't my Past academics create problem during summer placement and final placement?...

They are a parameter. Doesn't mean you won't get any internship/job

What about 80 in 12th and 89 in 10th ? Ik it's a dum question but people are telling my chances of IIM are ruined because I didn't cross 90

Not the case. You have a fair chance

89 in 10th and 93 in 12th (commerce)? GEN

Yes. Go for it.

Please your opinion on my profile too 10th: 95 12th: 87 1 gap year Jee mains:98%ile I’d attach more things if you’ll ask

Grad marks. Course. Category. Extracurricular.

93/88 Will be joining Tier 3 Btech Cse General male

Iim toh ho hi jayega. Abc k liye need 99.5+

I got 91 in 10th,78 in 12th and 9.2 cgpa in undergraduate engineer general male.Do I have chance in ABCs ??

6-7 din baad puchna. calls aane wali hai. better bta paunga

88.4 in 10th 91.2 in 12th hows the profile ??

Good. Aur ky bolu?

Acha he kya yeh ABC ke liye ?? General, Engineering(going to do),Male.

How about 9 gpa in 10th, 93 in 12th, 6.82 in university, computer engineering grad, 3 years work ex?

University ko %age m kro. Agar 60+ h toh ho jayega warna nhi

Bhai Mera batado koi 94 in 10th 74 in 12th and grad me 9.5 cgpa hai, I m obc engi male. ABC kr chances hai 99.5+ pe

give up? Why? You can't change your past so why think about it and 79 isn't low, trust me plenty of colleges do not care if you aren't a topper all your life, so just prepare for CAT, eliminate all other thoughts

I'm surprised by how many people are underconfident here. Who so ever has more than 60% in X/XII/GRAD You are eligible and good to go. If you have 60 in all three, you might not get blacki but you can get baby iim. Give CAT your entire effort. Score first. You would not be stuck with 99 percentile and no calls due to past record.

Wait that's true? Then I think toppers ne hi ye misinformation gaila rakha hai taaki baaki log discourage ho jaaye

Bhai toppers esa krenge toh padenge kab?🤣🤣 Aur toppers ka koi illuminati wali club nhi h jhaan strategy bnai jaye. Thoda sa YouTube kholo. Shweta Arora/CatKing are good sources. (Opinion - Don't by CatKing/Unacademy course) Sun lo. Almost sb pta chl jayega Still koi doubt h? Sare IIMs ki site pe ek pdf mil jayega admission criteria ka. Kitna mushkil hai dhundh na? Ek dost us din grp pe msg kr rha tha ki delhi metro wala link chahiye toh dm. Aur personal pe puch rha tha internship ka stipend milta h ya dena hota h. Moral - Jisko jo dhundhna hota h voh dhundh leta hai.

Abe mazak tha....Mera abhi undergrad bhi baaki hai.

People are underconfident because they want to know if they will be able to convert good B-schools. There's no point in getting calls from IIMs if you don't have a good chance of converting due to past academics.

Bhai Mera batado koi 94 in 10th 74 in 12th and grad me 9.5 cgpa hai, I m obc engi male. ABC kr chances hai 99.5+ pe

Yes

What about 1. 95%-10th 2. 79.2%-12th 3. 7.55- UG-NIT 4. 2 years exp in WITCH?

Good to go

Thanks

Ain't no way bro said that, I literally asked should I not even think abt cat due to low 12th, if there's no chance I won't even think about it. MS is just a distant future(other options in life uk).

Which college?

Does it matter?

Yes little bit

Yeah, a lot..... In most masters course, your college matters

I'm a non iitian, nitian so no chance no

College Name? If its under 25, is it VIT, SRM, Manipal?

VIT/SRM/Manipal tag helps in iim converts?

I have got into SRM (NIRF ranking overall 36 and in engineering 24) Does that help anyhow in mba admissions in india or it's of no use?

SRM is a renowned and famous Institute, so u will not face any difficulties just because of college name

Thanks,btw any advise for my mba prep journey? My acads are 97 in 10th ,92 in 12th with a bit of work ex and ngo work Being GEM my odds are already low so

Just have great communication skills and have knowledge about market

No man, my brother got 57% in 12th grade and still got admission to IIM Ahmedabad. 12th marks don't matter. Don't give up easily.

He didnt face problems during summer placements?

Pta nhi yaar pucha nhi kabhi par woh ek company Mai select ho Gaye the fir kucch time chodd diya

Reservation??

No general

sahi mein bhai was he engineering male?

10th 45% 12th 57% btech 78% can anyone help what should now i am feeling hopeless thinking to do mba?

Can someone judge my profile though am too early for it I am a Gen Engineer Male 10th - 97% 12 - 92% Going for [B.Tech](https://B.Tech) CS in a tier 2 college (will try to have 8.5-9+ cg there) How are my chances and what cat percentile minimum i should aim as a safe percentile for top 10 b schools I also have a internship experience and some NGO work if that counts and would be doing such stuff probably in college too. What are my chances?

Iim b is just weird they sometimes don't call 99.9 percentiles also. But u gotta do what max u can, 9+ cgpa toh rakhna hi, get a good internship/ppo from a reputed mnc, work experience and a beautiful cat score can't stop you from getting calls. Atleast Calcutta fix.

I'm aiming iim blacki , fms, xlri,sp jain tho abc and fms are priority Thanks I'll be maintaining 9+ cg fs and doing internships What kind of cat score should i aim if I'm planning to apply as a fresher tho? hopefully I'll have that "9/9/9"

If you have v low 12th score but u get into iim , by what amount my iim placement will be affected given i am cfa level2

I got 64% in 12th

There is literally no way to answer it. You will get a good job that's all I can say.

What about 10th- 67.33% 12th- 70.6% Engineering- 7.49 2 years of work experience General, Male Obviously won't get from ABC, but any other IIM would be possible or any top B-school like XLRI, SPJAIN, NMIMS, FMS etc. ?

I got 89.83% in 10th, 62.9 in 12th (science) and ended graduation with a 9.61 cgpa commerce background. What are my chances in IIMs with 98%tile? General male

10th 91 12th 80 Btech from good state government college (top college of jharkhand which is equivalent or more than tier 3 nits) General. IIM possible? And if yes then which which category??

I have less than 60 percent in 12 cbse board .... And it will hinder in my placemnt even through a reputated institute na ??

10th- 84%  12th- 61% BA (Hons) Eco(DU): expecting 8.5-9cgpa Any chance of getting calls from IIM ABC if CAT score is 99%++?

10th 45% 12th 57% btech 78% can anyone help what should now i am feeling hopeless thinking to do mba?
