Only few companies ask for through out 60%.
It's not must.

@souv its tough in case of placements.............coz most of the companies seek 1st division holders through out career...............and in case of b-school admission...the cut off varies......and 50% is the generalized cutoff

XLRI,FMS,MDI,NITIE,XLRI,IIFT,JBIMS,TISS,NMIMS,SIBM,SCMHRD,MICA,IRMA are some top colleges that give less weightage to academics, you may compensate your low academics with higher scores in written.

@missionCAT13 sir any iim or iit allow?
I guess every new IIM asks for >60% in 12th except IIM Ranchi.
Can't say about older IIMs, But to be honest, This academic record is too low for Older IIMs as well as newer Also.
And IIT bombay and IIT Kanpur ask for 6.5 CGPA/60% In grad,
IIT Delhi asks for 6.75 CGPA.
IIT madras,IIT Roorkee,IIT Kharagpur ask for First class In Engineering. :)
hope this might help you .
494
@missionCAT13 sir as u mention.iit delhi,madras,roorkee,kharagpur only check engg result?those not check academic result?i am a sc catagory student.so there is any consideration in iim? thanking u sir
495

see minimum cutoffs doesnt ensure admission.......if you can sell/market i.e convince them your candidature is guranteed

for iim-s follow the link below

498
@dreamboats i'm opting for FRENCH.............though mandarin n spanish are mostly spoken after english.........but in case of business french has an upper-hand.......french spanish italian are inter-related as many words are common...
mandarin is the craze as of now............but difficult and takes a lot of time

anyway If you belong to SC then get good score in Written, you are eligible for All most all colleges including newer IIMs. :-)
