    For an OBC candidate, you need to get 82 to 92 percentile to get admission in a good B-school. Your performance in group and personal interview matter a lot.
    All the best.

    Every IIM has a different minimum total and section - wise percentile cut off. Remember that this is a necessary condition but not a sufficient one. If you score lower than the cut-off in even one section, you will not be eligible for interviews.
    IIM - A (for OBC Candidates) -
    * QA + DI - 75
    * VA + LR - 75
    Overall - 80
    IIM - B (for OBC) -
    * QA + DI - 70
    * VA + LR - 80
    Overall - 80
    IIM - C (for OBC Candidates) -
    * QA + DI - Greater than 75
    * VA + LR - Greater than 75
    Overall - More than 85

    Hi,
    For OBC candidate, you shall require the percentile somewhere ranging to 82-92 to get into good B-Schools and even IIMs.
    Your work experience shall help you.
    Yes, you can use your OBC certificate for CAT, in case it is valid. So, make sure you re-check your OBC certificate. In case you do not have the valid OBC certificate, then you shall require above 98-99 to get into top IIMs.
