I scored 32.7 percentile in XAT. I have a really good academic background, my graduation CGPA is also 9.5 out of 10. Should i apply for XIME or is there any chance that Ill get a call for GD/PI?

vinayak kansal 19th Jan, 2025

Based on your high academic background (a CGPA of 9.5), you have a strong profile overall. Regarding your XAT score of 32.7 percentile, it's important to keep in mind that different institutes have varying cutoff criteria and selection processes.

XIME typically considers the following criteria for admissions:

  • XAT/ CAT/ GMAT score
  • Academic performance
  • Work experience

Your XAT percentile is on the lower side, getting a direct call for GD/PI from XIME may be unlikely, as they generally prefer candidates with higher percentiles (around 50 or above). However, the fact that you have an excellent academic record can make you a standout candidate in the holistic evaluation process.

I have completed my graduation in 2022. Can i get into IIMs with two year gap. But im not confident about my CAT exam. What other examinations can i target which is less difficult compared to CAT. Is 4-5 months sufficient for CMAT?

kumardurgesh1802 6th Nov, 2024

Hello Pritam,

Yes, you can still target IIMs even with a two-year gap post-graduation, as they consider diverse profiles and experiences. A gap isn't necessarily a disadvantage if you can account for it in interviews or your application. If you're not confident about CAT , there are other entrance exams that you can consider, which are generally considered less intense:

  1. CMAT (Common Management Admission Test) : Accepted by several top B-schools in India, including some Tier-1 institutes.

  2. MAT (Management Aptitude Test) : Conducted four times a year, MAT is accepted by many B-schools across India.

  3. SNAP (Symbiosis National Aptitude Test) : Required for admission to Symbiosis International University and its institutes.

  4. NMAT (NMIMS Management Aptitude Test) : Accepted by NMIMS and other reputed B-schools in India.

    Is 4-5 Months Sufficient for CMAT?

Yes, 4-5 months is generally sufficient to prepare for CMAT, especially if you focus on building a solid understanding of the core topics like Quantitative Techniques, Logical Reasoning, Language Comprehension, and General Awareness . CMAT is more straightforward than CAT, with a balanced structure and questions at a moderate difficulty level, making it manageable with dedicated study.

Preparation Tips for CMAT in 4-5 Months:

  1. Focus on Quantitative Techniques and Logical Reasoning : Since these sections make up a large part of CMAT, consistent practice will boost accuracy.

  2. Strengthen General Awareness : Make reading current affairs a daily habit. Focus on business, politics, sports, and general knowledge.

  3. Enhance Language Skills : For Language Comprehension, practice reading comprehension, vocabulary, and grammar.

  4. Take Mocks Regularly : Mock tests will help you gauge your speed, improve accuracy, and familiarize you with the CMAT format.

This preparation will also benefit you if you decide to take other exams like MAT or SNAP , as many skills overlap across these exams.
