    Yes, you can pursue MBA from IIM, because it needs class 10th and class 12th and CAT qualification, so if you can qualify CAT exam you're most welcome in IIM.

    Hello Jyotishekhar,
    First thing, there is nothing like qualifying CAT. CAT is an exam which will give you a percentile Score, which further will be used by MBA colleges like IIMs for shortlisting the students, but CAT score will not be the only parameter for shortlisting different colleges will have different criterion(like job experience, 10th and 12th marks) for that you will have to refer to the websites of the particular college and you will have to apply in different colleges separately and then those colleges will conduct interviews of the shortlisted candidates and then will announce the list of students who can take admissions

    Sure, with this score you have have a chance to get admission in IIMs, but you need to crack CAT with very high percentile like about 97%/98%. Crack GD PI also. Work experience matter at the time of admit process.

    Yes, now you need minimum 50 percentage in your graduation, and you need to clear the CAT exam cutoffs, which are really high to get enrolled in any of the IIMS, so you need to clear the exam with good score.

    Hi dear,
    You can qualify for CAT, if you ensure you are getting 60 percent in your graduation. A weight is given to profile i.e class 10th, class 12th and graduation marks. So, ensure getting a really high score in graduation and go for some work experience. Then, try and get 98+ percentile in CAT. It will help you crack IIMS.

Though this score helps the candidates qualify for the shortlisting stage, FLAME follows a holistic selection process; hence, the final admission also depends on academic records, interviews, and overall profile strength.
