Can I appear for MBA entrance exams like CAT, MAT, CMAT, etc.? Can I get admission in a good college?

I have done class 10th with 65%. Due to some financial problems I had to quit studies for 4 years, but after that I did 3 years of Diploma and B.Tech in electrical engineering with 80%.

You can appear for the exam without any problem. If they ask anything about your gap while admitting then you should be able to justify the gap.

Can I get a call for PI from IIM-C if I score 99 percentile in CAT but have low marks in 10th and 12th? I have an OBC certificate as well.

Hi, Software testing is good but from career perspective it has a limitation to certain extent. After this, the career will probably stand still.

Yes, surely you can get a good B-school provided you score well in CAT and XAT. You can justify your 4 year's gap during the interview.

Yes, you can appear for the MBA entrance exams you have mentioned. Try to score and get 85 percentile to get into top B-schools of India.
