I have scored 34 percentile in CAT 2017. Is there a good B-school where I can apply? I have done my BBA with 75%.

    Dear Sunder!
    I'm afraid to say that with 34 percentile, you can not even imagine to be in top B -School. You know that in today's market, where even 2 graded colleges are asking for 85+ percentile. Your 34 will stand nowhere. Hence Sunder, my suggestion is that you do two things; (1) Take a year drop and again appear in CAT exam and try to clear it with 95% tile. Not just CAT but prepare hard for GMAT also. This will maximise your chance of success. (2) During this year drop, font just spend your time in coaching but gain some job experience. This will enhance the chance of selection. Because you know that how much this work experience
