Can I still get into IIMs as my 12th marks are very poor (50.74%) but I have 71% in graduation? I have lost all my hopes.

I am doing BBA (International Business). I got 87.40% in SSC board, 50.74% in HSC Science board. I want to prepare for SNAP, CAT to get admission into good MBA colleges. I lost all my hopes to get into IIM A,B,C and SIBM, Pune because of my poor 12th HSC score.

You are interested in going for IIM colleges. I would like to tell you that for getting admission in IIM, you should give CAT exam and in this you must score more than 99 percentile then only there is a possibility for a getting call from IIM.

You can get admission in top IIM colleges for MBA. Your marks are not good in 12th but don't worry. Clear MAT or CAT exam to get admission to top IIMs.
