Some more data...

A guy (SC/ST) at my coaching institute had a call from IIM A for the ABM program at 78%ile in CAT 2006.

Kindly update the %le for SC candidates as well. Kindly be authentic because some of our friends have mentioned %le un-necessarily less. Don't mind, kindly mention authentic one.

Thanks

Being in reserved Category (even Phy. Handicapped students) and converting calls is not that easy. You might get calls with unbelievably low CAT scores but when you go for GDs (you will be grouped with general cat. students) and in inteviews they wont even know you are from reserved category.

This year NITIE filled only 3 students in PH category (AFAIK no seats for hearing PH students) when they ought to fill in atleast 5-6 seats. So if you get really low scores, you might get calls but it's not easy to convert.

Can anyone tell me what weightage does percentile has in the entire selection process... I have a pretty decent %ile but have not done very well in the interviews..
