Hi Ansh,
To get through any IIM you need to appear for CAT. Only if you score distinctively high I. e. around 96 percentile (Depends on year on year) you might stand a chance to get a call from them. Aim to score 98-99 percentile. Also they would check your academics throughout and you need to meet up to their criteria to get through the interview and GD rounds. Start studying hard and smart and appear as many Mocks as you can. Also refer to various authors and apply for test series at different places. As they say the more, the merrier. Good Luck Mate.
