Greetings Ms.Divya
IRMA, encourages diversity in all aspects. All profiles are given importance to, but again, clearing interviews is not just about ones profile. So it cannot be explicitly said that IRMA gives preference to a certain kind of profile.
A 90 percentile should be a safe bet in both CAT and XAT.
Hope I have answered both your questions satisfactorily.
Kind Regards

8 years agoHello Divya,
Your graduation background doesn't matter much except for cases when you have degree of agricultural engineering of BSC in agriculture; in these cases you get preference over other candidates.
Yes, if you have done some social work or you have work experience, you stand a chance to score better marks. In your final selection process, 50% weightage is given to GD-PI, where these qualifications can make a difference for you.
It's very difficult to say the safe score but you should aim to get atleast 95 percentile to get selected for the next round.
