Can I get admission in JBIMS, SIMSREE, K.J Somaiya, Welingkar through DTE CAP rounds? I have scored 94.2 percentile in CAT 2017.

I had a year drop in my engineering which I know is not very easy to explain in GD-PI process. So I want to know how can I get in colleges like JBIMS, SIMSREE, K.J. Somaiya, Welingkar etc. with 94.2 percentile in CAT without giving MAH-CET. I belong to Maharashtra State and from general category.

You have chances of getting calls from K.J.Somaiya and Welingkar. JBIMS and SIMSREE will be a bit tough at this score. You can also apply for IITs and NITs. K.J.Somaiya and Welingkar will definitely call you. You can also look for other institutes like Great Lakes, BIM-Trichy, IFMR, GIM, LBS-Delhi,

Hello, Among all the colleges mentioned, only Welingkar and Somaiya consider that CAT score since the cutoff for both JBIMS and SIMSREE is above 99 percentile due to fewer seats.

DTE CAP rounds is for MS Admission. CAT is eligible mostly for IIMS. Some colleges do accept that. For this purpose, you need to go to college website.

For MS courses MH-CET is mandatory. For PGDM you can apply from outside. Your score is pretty good. So, don't worry about the drop year.

Colleges under DTE accept MH-CET course. Your percentile may get you through the cut-off and shortlist but it further depends on your performance in the GD/PI.

I am sorry but the above-mentioned colleges have pretty high cutoff ranging from 99.5 percentile for Welingkar to 99.99 for JBIMS. Since the exam you have mentioned is CAT, it comes under All India seats and the cut-offs for such seats are always high. There are many other colleges which you can app

Through DTE CAP round, it is difficult to get into any of these colleges mentioned by you but you could apply for PGDM course of Welingkar as you stand a fair chance of getting through as they consider an overall score of GDPI, academics and your percentile. And PGDM course of Welingkar is the best
