It is difficult to get admission in S.P Jain, FMS, etc. However, you can try and apply for PGDM courses of Welingkar, SIMSR, etc where GD-PI performance is given more importance.

You have good academics, FMS, MDI Gurgaon and S.P. Jain will be hard to crack but ofcourse you can try...... Some other colleges like MDI Musridabadh, IMI Delhi, XIMB Bhubaneswar, Symbiosis will be good with 75 percentile in CAT.
