What is the required CAT score to get admission call from any of the IIMs?

I scored 90 percent marks in class 10th and 95.5 percent marks in class 12th and 80 percent marks in graduation. I belong to OBC-NC category.

The cutoff of IIMs depends on year to year basis but usually the cutoff for general category students is around 90 percentile.

To get admission in IIM A, B, C, L or K you need to score around 98 percentile in CAT. To get admission in new IIMs, you need to score above 85 percentile in CAT exam. You need to qualify GD-PI round too.

As you belong to OBC category, you can get a call from IIMs, if you score above 85 percentile. For the new IIMs, 80 percentile is enough to get a call.

You need to score above 95 percentile to get any calls from IIms. To get admission in IIM A,B or C might be a little tricky because of 80 percent in graduation.

Since you belong to the reserved category, at least 75 (sectional) and 80 (overall) percentile would be sufficient to get you an interview call from almost all the IIMs.

IIM's never announce their cutoffs. However generally students who score around 99 percentiles or more than that have the highest chances for getting a call from IIM's. For reserve category students, I guess around 90-95 percentile score is required.
