    Hi,
    Your cat percentile is low for pgdm(core) but as you say that gd/pi went off well . They can consider you for the course because overall selection depends on your cat score , gd/pi , work ex. and previous scores. So your chances of selection are high.
    Thank you

    Hii ayush, I hope you get PGDM core but the final decision will be decided after the second batch of interview so it depends how many applicants appear in 2nd slot. Also add some co-curriculum activities in your profile to have more chances of getting selected for that and if you have work ex that will also add 12% to ur profile. Hope for the best.
    Good luck

    CAT score accounts for just 25% in the selection procedure the rest is based upon your GD , PI,graduation score and other record , so you have a fair chance of converting to BIMTECH. the detailed allocation of division of scores has been provided in the admission brochure which can be downloaded from the link mentioned below.
