You have decent academics and it's good to start preparing now. Its not that difficult. If you belong to general category, you need more than 97 percentile to get a call from an IIM.

Nothing is difficult if you really want it. CAT is a little bit difficult but not that much and level of CAT in every section is very high (especially in English). So, you have to do advanced preparation for the same.
