    No. Do students with backlogs (cleared) have a chance of getting into one of the top 4 Iims or FMS XLRI? So to answer your question, YES, students with backlogs do get through. Should I expect top iims call if my 10th score is 7.8 and 12th is 68% and somehow I do exceptionally well in CAT and my grads?
