Hello, Yes, at that CAT score, you can surely expect calls from the top IIMS. Since you have cleared those backlogs, they shouldn't matter much. Still, to be on the safer side, do prepare for the questions asked on the backlogs during the interviews. Good luck with the exam preparation.

Hi, IIM or any other college will consider your CAT score and the UG degree. They do not go in depth to check the backlogs etc. The Backlogs or year drops are considered at the time of placements.
