Dear Aspirant,
Unfortunately you cannot apply to SCMS College Cochin. Their CMAT cutoff is 70%ile which will require atleast 200 marks. At your score, you are not eligible to apply for this college. I would suggest you should get some work experience and then give the exams again or prepare for another year and give your best shot in the next attempt. All the best!
