You must have a qualifying percentage to be sure. Then, regarding the other attributes, you must be fully satisfactory. You got to be good, though you need not be excellent.

Only 15% weightage is given to past academic records so you still have 85% with you. Therefore focus on your written exams and prepare well for GD/PI rounds.

See all depends on CAT score.Some IIMs may call you if you have excellent score in CAT. Chances maybe low but why not give a try. sometimes there may be a miracle. Do not lose hope. Life may be difficult but the journey is enjoying and lovable. So try and make a mark.

see my suggestion to you is if you score well in CAT then y not go for IIMs. otherwise GIM is also a good decision. The same stands for GIM too. An excellent percentile and an impressive WAT/PI. Rest it depends on you, what you choose.

Dedicate one focused hour in the morning to QA formulas or an RC passage, one hour in the evening to DILR sets, and reserve weekends for full-length mocks and thorough review.

It is not too late, provided you adjust your scope. Focus directly on core topics, start taking sectional tests immediately, and spend time learning through mock test analysis.

Focus on formula sheets, mental math tables, grammar pointers, and your accumulated test error log. Avoid attempting full-length tests during the final three days before the exam.

Enrolling in a classroom programme is rarely practical with two months left. However, a dedicated mock test series or a targeted crash course for specific weak subjects can provide structured practice material.
