my score in cat and xat is low, didnt even reach the cutoff.. which decent college do u suggest for mba
Dear aspirant,
As per your question, you told your cat and xat both the scores are very low and didn't reach the cut offs so it is impossible for you to get any tier 1 or tier 2 colleges.
You should also give seperate exams for colleges like gitam University and for the colleges in Bangalore and Maharashtra.
