Permanently and easily accesible info for freshers - 20-01-2008, 07:52 PM

Hi there and sorry for the new thread. I really need some clear info on the following....this isn't just for me..it's for all those kids out that there that want to think they have a chance at making it big....

1) If you have a 60-65% in your B.Tech...is there still a chance of getting a call from an IIM or an equivalent B-school(assuming that you got a 99 something percentile)
2)How many of the folks here made it through after how many tries...and please mention your percentiles....also if someone could give us an idea on how hard it is to get these percentiles...it would be really very helpful
3)What sorts of questions do they ask during the interview......
4)This is more for me actually....i have a 90% in inter, 81% in 10th but depression resulted in me getting a measly 60.5% in my btech(im still in third year so i can maybe improve it a bit...probably upto 68 if i work hard). Do you think they'd call me(if i get a good score in the CAT this year) with such a record....
