While premier colleges like FMS and top IIMs close their interview calls in the 90+ percentile range, having a CAT percentile between 80-90 opens doors to MBA colleges accepting 80-90 percentile scores. Many good management schools fall within this range, offering excellent opportunities for pursuing your MBA/PGDM degree. We have compiled a list of the top colleges you can apply to and target with a score between 80 and 90th percentile in CAT 2024, college fees, and average salary.

Top MBA Colleges Accepting 80 to 90 Percentile in CAT 2024

A percentile between 80 and 90 has many decent college options to which you can apply. Note that in the percentile range 85-90, you may get calls from new and baby IIMs, IITs (other than Delhi and Mumbai), SPJIMR (profile-based), and IMT for reserved category/ non-engineer/ good profile candidates.

What to Do Next? After Scoring 80-90 Percentile in CAT 2024?

Preparing for the interviews for these colleges is as essential as for the top ones as many more students receive interview calls for these than the top IIMs due to the reduced cut-offs. And the comparative increase in seats? Fractional. Join us at InsideIIM’s WAT-PI Season 5 and get your assistance. Enhance your chances of converting your top call early!

Frequently Asked Questions Q.1 What should I do if I score less than 60 / 70 percentile in CAT 2024? Ans. A score below the 60th percentile can not land you at a good college. You should focus on other exams, such as XAT, CMAT, MICAT (their application forms are still open), SNAP, and NMAT, or re-attempt next year if it is practical for you. Q.2. What are some good colleges to target if I score between 80 and 90 percentile in CAT 2024? Ans. GIM, GLIM, MICA, IMI, IRMA, TAPMI, and Fore are some of the top colleges to which you should apply if your score is between the 80th and 90th percentile.
