CAT marks are only one of the criterion for getting selected.SDMIMD considers overall academic consistency starting from the 10 th class to graduation.you might get a chance to sit for GD-PI even with a score that is near to the cut off set by the institute. -
CAT marks are one of the criteria for selection, if you get more than 50-60 percentile in CAT, you can expect a call for PI from the institute by filling the application form. -

Good luck to you. -
