Can I get admission in IMT nagpur even after having 57 percentile in Cat exam

Sajal Trivedi 17th Jan, 2024

Hello aspirant,

I regret to inform you that, despite your 57 percentile on the CAT exam, IMT Nagpur will not be contacting you. This is because the college's total cut-off score for all CAT, MAT, and CMAT exams is 70 percentile. There is no sectional cut-off, but you must score at least in the 70 percentile in order for your application to be reviewed further.

Thank you

Hope this information helps you.

Option 3: DBV

Option 4: None of the above

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024
