So, the composite score is the final score that is obtained by an applicant based on the performance of their application and performance. The calculation of the composite score is done according to the weightage held by different components for the selection process. The weightage of these components may differ from one IIM to another. The list of the components used for calculating the composite score for IIM is given below.

  • CAT Score: The CAT score is the CAT exam pass percentage a candidate must obtain to become eligible for applying to the IIM. The CAT pass percentage is the percentile at which an IIM accepts applications from candidates.

  • Academic Performance: The academic performance includes the marks of Bachelor’s along with 10th and 12th standard marks. Different IIMs give different weightage to these scores at different stages of the selection process. The weightage varies from 5% to 15%.

  • Work Experience: Work experience is not made mandatory but is given a weightage. Having good work experience acts as an added advantage.

  • Diversity Factor: Over the past few years diversity has become an important factor that is considered by IIMs. It is done to make the batches more diverse in terms of gender and culture.

  • Personal Interview and Written Ability Test: PI and WAT are the most significant parameters of IIM selection. They often carry the most weightage in the IIM selection process.

  • Normalization: The CAT pass marks for IIM are based on the CAT normalized scores of the candidates.

Hello aspirant,

The only on-screen calculator that CAT permits use is a simple one. It is not permitted for you to bring the actual calculator into the center. This approach is predicated on the idea that the CAT assesses an individual's aptitude for solving challenging mathematical puzzles and making fast mental computations.

Thank you

A CAT percentile of 90 or above can strengthen your application to MICA, it is not the only factor that determines admission.MICA considers scores of CAT and MICAT which are weighted 50–50 percent for the interview call.

Strong performance in the Pshycometric test and descriptive writing increase your chances to get into mica even if you score 80 percentile.the admission is based upon whole performance including every marks.

ALL the best!!!!


Hello aspirant,

A timetable is essential if you are preparing for the CAT in addition to your college coursework. It will give you an idea of how long it will take you to finish your syllabus and then set aside the appropriate amount of time for revision and mock exams. Without a set timetable, you risk taking your time and not completing your preparation as thoroughly as is necessary.

Thank you

Hope it helps you.

Hello Nikita,

To get into any of the top IIMs, such as IIM Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Calcutta, Lucknow, Kozhikode, or Indore, a good percentile in CAT is required, although academics play a vital role too. Let's break it down below:

CAT Score: 98+ percentile is an excellent score and makes one competitive.

Academic Scores:

Your 10th score at 84% is quite good.

A 12th score of 65% is on the lower side, which might hamper your chances at some of the top IIMs since they give weightage to past academic performance.

IIM Selection Criteria:

Every IIM has its own weightage for the scores of academics, CAT percentile, work experience, if any, and diversity.

For example, IIM Ahmedabad requires consistent academic records, while IIM Bangalore puts the strongest focus on work experience and diversified profiles.

Graduation: You are currently pursuing graduation, and your performance during that will also be considered in the shortlisting process.

While your CAT score is going to be the major pointer, your academic record-doing in class 12-is going to affect your prospects a bit at IIMs that place significant emphasis on your past performance. Still, you will have a healthy shot, at least at institutes like Lucknow, Kozhikode, and Indore, where a good score in CAT may offset lower marks in academics.

If you have diverse profiled extracurricular activities, leadership roles etc, or work experience, then it can build up your application further.
