Hello, You have to score more than 90 %ile in CAT exam and a good academic record and if you are a dropout student then you need to have a job experience. Thank you!

Hello, You need to score 99+ percentile to get a call from IIM A, B and C for GDPI. You may get a call from other IIM with CAT percentile of 98 but for IIM A and B, you need to have 99+ percentile.
