Hey, It totally depends on the selection criteria for the admissions in that particular year. Just focus on the preparation for the GDPI WAT round and you might actually make it through. If it helps, the 2017 admissions selections criteria was: CAT Score-55%, GDPI WAT-30% and others (10th, 12th, Academic diversity, Gender diversity, Work ex)-15%. Please note that the criteria may change. All the best.

The final conversion depends on many factors which includes CAT, GD-WAT-PI scores, past academic performance etc. Just focus on the preparation for the next round as of now. You can still convert if you perform well in the GD-PI-WAT process. All the best!

Dear Venkatesh,
Management Development Institute, Gurugram is not an average college. It comes under the top college for the management programme. They do give a very good weightage for your past academic background. But since you have an extremely good score in CAT, you may apply there. Venkatesh, in order to increase your chance of selection in MDI you have to show them your good work experience. It will hide your past academic. But still let's take a chance. There are 70% chances that you will be selected.
Hope this helps.
