    There is a good chance of receiving an interview call from IIM Ahmedabad, however, admission isn’t guaranteed even at 100 percentile. The overall criteria includes academic profile, that is your Class 12, Class 10 and graduation marks. The college also gives a score for work experience, hence, candidates must have 2-3 years of experience to get maximum points. Additional focus is also given to gender and academic diversity. Considering all these factors and candidates’ CAT score, IIM Ahmedabad prepares a composite score through which decides whether to finalise a student or not. IIM Ahmedabad or any other IIM, for that matt

    Out of the maximum CAT marks, the CAT 100 percentile score ranged from 70 to 90 percentage score. A candidate has to have scored 140 to 180 points in the CAT to be in the 100 percentile. You stand a high probability of being admitted to IIM Ahmedabad if your CAT result was 100 percent. However, it is not a given that you will succeed in it. For admission to IIM Ahmedabad, however, the qualifying CAT cutoff percentile is 80 for general applicants, 75 for NC-OBC/EWS, 70 for SC/PwD, and 60 for ST candidates. For the general category, the final CAT cut-off percentile is often between 99 and 100, and for the reserved category, it is 95.
