    Yes, you can pursue MBA after B.Sc. Agriculture. Iims are looking for diversity in educational backgrounds of their students. So, if you prepare well and get a good percentile in CAT you will have a great chance of converting the calls. Prepare for CAT as early as possible, take part in extracurricular activities also, build your resume, this will help you in interviews after the online exam.

    Yes, you can do study from the 1st-year because, in 1-year, it is very difficult to complete the entire syllabus. Also, you should join a good coaching class in the final year. Till then, build your concepts regarding aptitude. It will help you in CAT. You can also join TIME coaching institute as it is very good for CAT preparation. They provide quality teaching and is having a good staff. All the best!

With a 300 SC category rank in CAT, your chances for NIT Trichy MBA are relatively high. Based on 2025 data, NIT Trichy generally shortlists SC candidates with CAT percentiles around 60-65. To achieve a 300 rank under SC category, you would need about a 65-70 percentile, or a score of roughly 60-65 marks out of 198 in CAT 2025, depending on difficulty and normalization process.
