horcrux @Gimli Go for CAT13. See IIM K and I don't have much weightage on CAT score. Even with percentile as low as 82 you will manage to get calls from K,I,S anyways because your profile is very strong. If you converted K this year I don't see any reason why you can't crack one of K,I,S next year (and mind you, this is the worst case scenario for you, which still is a distant dream for many).
For a better scenario, next year you will have 12 extra month of experience which will gain you some brownie points, and who knows with a little more effort and some luck you might score in the range of 98+ so again you will have a shot at these premier ABC with a much better chance of converting.
Lastly if you are having second thoughts on why to join a institute, then really why to join that institute half heartedly?

nitish_007 @Gimli See dude, you have 80+ in 10th, 12th and UGs. So, that's a strong point in itself. Now you just need to focus a bit more on CAT. I strongly feel that you should go for it again next year. For a profile like yours, with a better CAT score, cracking ABCL is very much a realistic possibility. Even at 92 %ile you managed to get a call from A and B. I don't see any reason as to why with a little more effort you wouldn't be able to crack any of the biggies. Go for CAT 13.

Aimingstars I would advise you to join 'IITB' as it as big a brand as any can get. Plus, next year NC ceiling is getting increased to 6l/annum and it vl impact the calculation a lot...and CAT is something very unpredictable. They might change criteria, you may score low, acads may become more important...
