    It will be very difficult to get into the top 6 IIMs with just 97+ (if you are from general category). You should aim to score as high as possible. I would say that to get a call from IIM ABC, you will need to score close to 99.8+ percentile and for others at least 99+ percentile.

    You have a really good chance in getting into top 6 IIMs. Work hard and focus on all the four sections equally. I am sure that you will be able to get into IIMs.

    Sometimes 99 percentile also cannot get you an admission in top 6, so get 99 percentile with a good interview.
    All the best!

    You have decent academic scores. Try to score in top 1 percentile in CAT and you will land up in your dream institute. IIM - ACB seems difficult though but they aren't impossible.

    It depends if you are belong to OBC, SC and ST, you can easily get the admission. But if you are from general category, it is so much difficult to get into black IIM and new IIM. Baby IIM could be a possibility.

    As your score in class 12th is less, so it seems a little bit difficult to get admission but still should try for it.

    You have to score 99+ percentile to get into the top 6 IIMs and also your past records are quite low so it deters your chance of getting into the top 6. Only if you manage a great score like 99.98 or so and have a good GD-PI only then you can get through the top 6.

    Given your past academic record, you need to score at least 99+ %ile to get an interview call from one of the top 6 IIMs.

    No chance. Your past records are not good enough, there might be chances if you have got category, still you will have to score more than 99.

Hi...

I need to clarify first: are you asking about admission to Chandigarh University for B.Tech/B.E, or admission to a medical/paramedical course (like B.Sc Nursing, MBBS, BPT, etc.)

The marks required and exam rules differ a lot depending on the stream.

Chandigarh University follows a holistic admission approach, giving importance to both Class 12 performance and JEE Main scores, depending on the route chosen. For JEE-qualified students, the JEE score primarily determines merit-based scholarships and priority counseling, while Class 12 marks ensure eligibility verification. For students not appearing in JEE, Class 12 performance, particularly in PCM subjects, becomes the primary eligibility criterion, alongside CUCET scores for CSE programs. This dual-focus system allows students with strong 12th marks but no JEE score to secure admission, while rewarding JEE participants with merit a

Yes, for B.E. admission at Chandigarh University, students must meet the basic eligibility criteria of Class 12, irrespective of their JEE score. Generally, candidates should have passed 10+2 with Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects, along with one additional relevant subject. The minimum percentage requirement is as per regulatory norms and may vary slightly by program, but JEE scores alone do not override academic eligibility. Even for students applying with JEE Main 2026 ranks for scholarship consideration, meeting the 12th standard eligibility is mandatory. CU maintains this balance to ensure academic readiness while kee

Hi.

If your 12th result has not been announced yet then 

Upload expected / provisional marks for now.

Final admission depends on the official 12th mark sheet after results are announced.

Colleges are used to this situation, especially for students applying in early cycles.
