dhiva · October 25, 2014, 7:26am

after taking good number of mocks

Qa/di- 16-18 correct answers

Va/lr- 25-30 correct answers

How much percentile can I expect if I score the same in CAT-14?

Hey Guys

I have average acads ( 8.8 CGPA in X, 81% in XII and 65% in Btech from DCE).

Do I stand a chance to get a call from ABC?

Please give brutally honest answers.

Thanks so much.

Hi guys!! 10th-88%, 12th-94.8%, and 62% in MBBS. No work experience. What should be my percentile to get a call from ABCIKL? My scores are around 70 in the AIMCAT's. Do I have any chance so that I can get a call from any of the old IIM's or should I be looking at 2015? Last 15 days, it has totally taken a mental toll upon me with the low mock CAT scores. Thank you. Please help.

Hello people. I have 92% in X, 78% in XII, 77% in graduation and 11 months work Ex. I am from NC-OBC. Do I have any chance for IIM-A,B,C ? If yes, How much %ile ?

snehaldahia · November 10, 2014, 12:53pm

Guys any idea about the last year's sectional cut off for All the IIMs for NC-OBC ? Range?

iim-l_aspirant · November 16, 2014, 7:18am

FMS

I had to pay 1000 bucks twice as the FMS portal did not show any payment received for the first time. Unfortunately, my bank account shows a debit of Rs 2000 . I did email support@fms regarding the issue but haven't received any response. What to do next ? 😞

Anyone else facing similar issues ?

shobhit26 · November 17, 2014, 11:51am

Hi Puys,

Does XLRI Jamshedpur have reservation for OBC-NC?

parash009 · November 18, 2014, 9:12am

Hey Pguys, I am CA Final Student and am thinking about preparing for CAT. I just wish to ask whether my profile will suffice for successfully getting and converting a call from any old IIM's or FMS.

My background- 10th 73.80%, 12th- 91.67%, Bcom- 71%, CA Final- 65% (Expected), M.Com 67%(Expected). I am expecting a 99+ %ile in CAT. I belong to NC-OBC Category and I am a fresher with no Work-Ex. Honest answers please.

hjha · November 18, 2014, 11:18am

Hi puyz, for those who attempted CAT on 16 Nov... How much percentile can we expect at attempts between 25-30 in both the sections with 85% accuracy. (as gotta know many aspirants attempted even more )

varun.007 · November 20, 2014, 3:16pm

guys ! have any idea about how many percentage of total applicants belong to OBC?

hari-iit · November 20, 2014, 6:56pm

Guys I gave my CAT on 16th Slot 1 and expecting around 90 percentile...

Xth - 90.16%

XIIth - 94.91%

B.E., - 76%

Work Ex - 2 years family business

Can I expect call from Old IIMs ?? Any possibility to convert with this profile ?? Genuine suggestions pls....

sandeep28 · November 22, 2014, 12:49pm

Guys I gave my exam on 22 nov slot 1

VA and LR -33 attempts(~85% accuracy)

DI and QA - 32 attempts(~90% accuracy)

What %ile can i expect??

Please Reply

varun.007 · November 22, 2014, 4:17pm

SLOT 1:

Thought of answering only those questions which i was 100% sure. Ended up ANSWERING overall 41 of which i am sure 39 will be correct at least. With my level of preparation and mock cat performance , I never expected i will fall to such low performance . I believe it almost impossible to get 90+ percentile looking at others performance . Not even in the mood to study for XAT/NMAT eventhough applied for those. Hoping best for CAT15

nehac0125 · November 23, 2014, 8:37am

avinder14 · November 23, 2014, 10:21am

Xth - 87%

XIIth - 80%

B.E., - 59%

Can I expect call from Old IIMs or FMS and any chances of conversion ?
