Does the new criteria mean that if my grad score is less than 71 then I stand no chance of a shortlist even with 90+ in Xth and XIIth?

Two queries: 1.I have a bsc percent of 67 according to marks and 77 percent (7.7*10) as per university conversion formula. I am in my final year.Which formula should I use?(My university awards both marks and grades and mentioned the above conversion formula.) 2.Is there a chance of relaxation of average of 10th and +2 avg score to 75 if sufficient candidates aren't found with avg of 80 in both and other criteria post cat results?Which IIMs might be relaxing acads weightage this year?

There is no chance of a relaxation of cutoffs. They have come out with this criteria based on candidate data from CAT 2014. They will look at your actual marks and not the university conversion formula

You can read the criteria above and make that analysis yourself. You have a chance because you at least satisfy all minimum criteria. CAT Score target we have already given. Please note that these are minimum cutoffs and actual could vary based on candidate pool and CAT performance of other candidate's in your pool of academic discipline

7 Aug 2015, 04.14 PM |

Vedant Khaderia

You say that minimum cut offs and actual could differ based on the CAT performance of candidates in the pool same as mine. Can a high CAT score cover up for failing to meet the minimum the minimum grad cut-off? Will other IIMs also go by such standards as far as grads are concerned?

A cutoff is a cutoff. You wont get an IIM A call even if you score 100 percentile if you haven't met minimum grad cutoff. Other IIMs also take scads very seriously but it is unlikely to be so harsh.

Is it not too harsh,that an engineer person getting 100 percentile in CAT but not meeting C2 (10th,12th average percentage less than 80)and C3 (graduation percentage less than 78) criteria will not even get an interview call? By the way it is very very difficult to score an aggregate of 78% in engineering in a lot of universities across the country.

It may be harsh but we can't do much about it, can we? It is definitely unfair in some ways but then its difficult to get 70% in Arts too in many universities. So in the end somewhere it evens out. But there is life beyond IIM A.

I am a final year B.Tech student (OBC). Till date my score is 71.3 %(upto 3-2). I haven't finished engineering yet and there is a wide scope of increasing the score(may be +4-5 %) by the end of the course. Now, my question is that, which score do they consider for short listing the candidates (assuming a high CAT percentile) ?

P ≥ 80 (Science), 77 (Commerce), 75 (Arts/Humanities) Where P is the "average" of the percentages of marks scored in 10th and 12th std exams. Does this imply that for a a general category student who has a score of 95% in 10th and 75% in 12th still has a chance because the average score is 85% &gt; 80% ?
