My academic profile is not good but if I score good marks in CAT then what are the chances of getting a call from IIM-A, B, C or FMS?

It is mostly based upon your GD and PI performance.

Yes, you can get into IIMs. However old IIMs are going to be difficult, you can definitely aim for new and baby IIMs. You need to score high in CAT. You should also sit for other exams like IIFT XAT SNAP etc.

Yes, chances are there but you must also present yourself in the best way. Score a percentile above 99 and perform well in GD-PI.

FMS has higher focus on CAT score than IIM ABC.

Honestly, it's hard to say. Even with good background profile, one should get 99+ percentile in CAT to be able to get shortlisted for IIMs. The academic profile has a certain weightage in the selection process. It also depends on the number of applicants and their profiles. This is just to state the circumstances but I encourage you to get a good score and apply to all IIMs and top colleges in the country. If you get selected then you'll have to face GD and PI which has more weightage in your final shortlisting. Prepare well for them. also to be on safe side apply to a college that you are bound to get admission, you can take help from college predictor available in Shiksha. Refer to this for CAT 2017 selection criteria: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.imsindia.com/CAT/iims-shortlisting-criteria.html" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>http://www.imsindia.com/CAT/iims-shortlisting-criteria.html</a>.

You have good chances provided you have exceptionally well in CAT. Keep your percentile above 99.8 and you can have calls from these premier colleges and convert it.
