You managed to get a seat at IIM-Indore though you scored only a 98.7 (which is low for the BLACKI IIMs. Otherwise its a fabulous score) percentile in CAT and with a very low GPA of 5-6~ . How did you manage this? Every blog/forum I read tells me that you need 99+ for a GEM candidate to get admission at BLACKI IIMs.

Nicely written:) I wanted to ask if 10 CGPA in 10th, and 92.6% in 12th both CBSE, would invite an IIM I call (For say a CAT percentile of 99.5)? An honest opinion is required.

Did you manage to improve your CGPA towards the end of your undergrad? What was your CGPA at the end of 7th and 8th semesters? Also, do you think not having WAT as a component in the admissions criteria helped your case to get an admit?

PGPM at IIM Indore'22 | DCE'20 | CAT2019 - 98.7%ile (VARC - 99.13, Quant - 98.51)
IIM Indore does not consider GPA, and gives heavy weightage to 10th and 12th. Also, my interview went brilliant and it carries heavy weightage in final score and I just scraped in, in the recent lists. So, it was a very anxious wait and I too felt at times that I would not make it. Also, the difference between 98.7 and 99 is of about 3-4 marks, thereby not affecting your rank much in the final selection (once you receive the call). If I had 99%ile, my rank would only be slightly better and I would have converted perhaps 1-2 lists ago. GEMs have received calls from Indore at 98%ile as well, as have GEMs with work experience received Bangalore calls at 98. So just focus on doing your best and the rest will follow. 99 is usually a convenient "milestone" to name or say. A couple of marks here and there, and the call/conversion isn't much different.

Oh ok. Thank you. The fact that you got in in the third list clears things up. I hadn't considered that view point. Yes I understand that 98.7-99 shouldn't be much of a difference. May make it. May not make it. Thank you for your insights on CAT prep and all the best for your upcoming MBA program :D

Actually for what it's worth, i converted in the 6th list (at margin), so yeah, a higher %ile would have lessened my anxiety. Thank you and best of luck to you for your attempt as well :)

I can't say for sure but chances seem average due to 12th. Also, criteria changes almost every year for each IIM, so they could change it this year as well. No one can precisely predict whether a call would come or not. I've seen people with 99.5%ile get no IIM call (GEM freshers ofc), despite 90+ acads, and I did not expect a call at my score. Thankfully my 10+2 got me a borderline chance and i got through. Do not fret over such things which are now outside your control. Instead divert your energy to your percentile and GPA (if you're in college).

I scored a higher GPA each semester. I graduated with 7 GPA this year and had a GPA of 6.5 overall during my interviews. And not having the WAT component hurt me as it went pretty well for me. I genuinely feel my rank would have been better if WAT had been included. I love writing and verbal has always been my strongest suite, be it writing or speaking (interviews, GDs). But no worries, the interview went well and it has the most weightage.
