In 2015 the cutoff for PGDM main course was 75 percentile for CAT and 80 percentile for MAT. As you have a fairly high score in MAT there is a high probability that you can get admission in PGDM main course. As regarding specialization , First year of PGDM is common for all students and option to choose desired specialization would be given in second year, so you can choose specialization of your choice. -
For PGDM core you require CAT score, MAT is considered for retail and insurance. First two trimesters will be common and then you have to go through some test to opt finance if you will clear that test. 63 is ok you need to wait and hope for the best because results will be announced only after the second lot of interviews. All the best -

The correction period is open for a short time after the submission of the application.

If the correction period has closed, then you can contact AIMA support, but changes will not be guaranteed. It is always a good idea to save a copy of your original form for your reference.
