    Hi Rohan,
    Though your percentages are on lower side, it is certainly not impossible to get calls from ABC. But, do remember that these class 10th and 12th scores carry significant weights for calculating the composite scores. So, even after getting a call, it will be difficult to get the final admission. As you are from a non-engineering stream, you would get additional points for academic diversity which could help your case. Having said that, there are many other good MBA colleges that you can get if you score a good CAT percentile.

    It's going to be quite difficult for you to crack IIM-Bangalore since this university during admissions focuses a lot more on past academics than other institutes. You might be better off aiming IIM A or C. Although, try and improve your graduation score, it might help.
    Anyway work hard and you will get the best that you deserve. Good luck!

    Generally, IIMs look for good academic/work profile. You have a decent academic profile. It's better to get a good work experience before appearing for CAT. Along with that, you need to score at least 99 percentile to get a call. Good work-experience will enhance your chances of selection. At this point also, if you work hard and score good percentile (at least 99), you have chances of getting a call.
