    At GIBS Business School, scholarships for PGDM are given based on entrance exam performance, including CAT. Usually, if you have a CAT score above 70–75 percentile, you become eligible for a scholarship. The higher your percentile, the better the scholarship amount you can receive. For example, students scoring above 80–85 percentile often get higher scholarships.

    So, if you are preparing for CAT, aiming for at least 75 percentile or above will give you a good chance to secure a scholarship at GIBS along with admission.

    To be eligible for a PGDM Scholarship at GIBS Bangalore, a good CAT score can increase your chances, but the exact score required may vary based on other factors as well, such as your academic record, performance in the GIBS Entrance Test (GET), and your overall profile. Typically, a CAT score of 60% or above can make you eligible for a merit-based scholarship, but this can vary each year.

    However, GIBS also offers scholarships based on other criteria, such as sports achievements, academic excellence, or financial need. So even if your CAT score isn't very high, you may still qualify for a scholarship depending on your overall profile.

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.
