The Common Admission Test (CAT) is one of the most important component to get admission in IIM Bangalore. In order to get admission in IIM Bangalore, you must obtain a good percentile in the CAT. There is no specific percentile stated by the institute which will give you a 100% guarantee to get a WATPI shortlist. Even scoring a high percentile in the CAT will not give you a guarantee to get an interview call as it depends upon various factors.

IIM Bangalore gives consideration to a number of factors while giving an interview call. These factors include CAT score, Class 10, Class 12, and Bachelor's degree marks, work experience, academic, and gender diversity, etc. Your first priority should be to clear both the overall percentile of 75 and sectional percentile of 70 in all three sections.

However, even if you score 95 percentile in the CAT , this will not mean that you will get a confirm Interview call. Therefore, the CAT score is not the only criteria but is one of the major criteria for admission.

The marks obtained by you in Class 10, Class 12, and Graduation, work experience, academic, and gender diversity will play a major role to get a shortlist for the WATPI process and during your final selection.

Hello Praneeth,

I am also appearing for the cat examination this year. As far as your query is concerned I would suggest you to right your  father's name(which is starting with S) in the middle if it is also mentioned in your aadhar card and pan card .

And if by any chance it is mentioned only the initials S in your pan/aadhar card then I would suggest you should fill only S in the cat application form.

Note :-

Keep in mind that your name in the application form should match with what is mentioned in your aadhar card /pan card .

Greetings of the day,

The CAT scorecard holds validity for admission to 20 IIMs and numerous other prominent MBA colleges in India. Aspiring candidates have the opportunity to apply for all MBA or PGDM programs across these 20 IIMs by completing the CAT 2023 application process. No additional fees are incurred for applying to these IIMs, and candidates can select multiple courses as per their preference.

i hope this answered your question.

thanking you

The Common Admission Test (CAT) is one of the most important components to get admission in old and new IIMs. In order to get admission in IIMs, you must obtain a good percentile in the CAT. There is no specific percentile stated by the IIMs which will give you a 100% WATPI shortlist. Even scoring a high percentile in the CAT will not give you a guarantee to get an interview call as it depends upon various factors.

IIMs give consideration to a number of factors while giving an interview call. These factors include CAT score, Class 10, Class 12, and Bachelor's degree marks, work experience, academic, and gender diversity, etc. Your first priority should be to clear both the overall and sectional percentile in the CAT.

The CAT score is not the only criteria but is one of the major criteria for admission. The cutoffs will depend upon the category from which you belong to. The cutoffs might be lower for candidates who belong to the reserved category.

The marks obtained by you in Class 10, Class 12, and Graduation, work experience, academic, and gender diversity will play a major role to get a shortlist for the WATPI process and your performance in the WATPI round will play a major role during your final selection.

If you have no work experience, it will not be a disadvantage as a number of candidates who get admission in the IIMs are freshers with no work experience. You will not get the marks allotted for work experience.

However, even if you score 95 percentile in the CAT , this will not mean that you will get a confirm WATPI call. Therefore, the CAT score is not the only criteria but is one of the major criteria for admission.

The marks obtained by you in Class 10, Class 12, Graduation, academic, and gender diversity will play a major role to get a shortlist for the WATPI process along with the CAT score and your performance in the WATPI round will play a major role during your final selection.
