Hi Priti, Since your class 10th and graduation marks are low, you need to score a high percentile. I think, percentile above 85 will be good for you. But, try to score more than that. But, don't be tensed about it. Concentrate and focus on the preparation of exams. All the best.

You should score around 90 percentile in CAT and XAT to get enrolled in a decent MBA college.

Since your 10th and graduation marks are on the lower side, you have to compensate it with good marks in the entrance exams. In any exam, a percentile above 80 is considered as a good score to get short-listed by decent MBA colleges.

Hi, You have to essentially focus on pursuing your PGDM, from the top 30 B Schools in India. It is only then, that your degree will be valued and respected by the corporate world. These B Schools accept only CAT scores. There is nothing great about the CAT exam. It is purely a hype. You have to ai
