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.

First, you will have to clear the CAT cut-off to get shortlisted for an interview. Thereafter, you would progress through the interview rounds based on your performance in each round example: group discussion, personal interview etc.
