However, you will need to fulfill the eligibility criteria of the B-school you are applying to, which can vary from one institution to another.

    Hi Vaibhav,
    If you want to pursue MBA abroad, then you must take GMAT exam. For MBA in abroad, you need at least 2 years of work experience. Once you are done with your research, you should evaluate pros and cons, and then decide if you want to take CAT and do MBA in India or work for 2 years and apply for MBA abroad.

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. Final selection is also based on interview, academics, and work experience. Yes, you are fairly within touch, but I would encourage you to have a solid overall profile as well to increase your chances of admission.
