If your college seat is being alloted through counseling then you need not fill any kind of form. But if you got call from any particular college/ institute / University then yeah you need to fill the college application form. Even if you are taking admission through direct admission you need to fill college application form. So  it depends on how you are getting admission into the college.

Hello Dear,

You have not mentioned for which category you have applied in XAT. For General category XAT cut offs for 2021 admission are expected to be around 32.5-33.5 marks for PGDM-BM and 30-31 marks for PGDM-HRM course of XLRI Jamshedpur.

So you can expect XLRI on your this rank. You can also expect your percentile between 90-94 percentile as per the expected cuoff of 2021. The cut off depends upon the number of seats available, the difficulty level of paper and number of candidates writing the examination. And, hence varies every year depending on these factors.

Good Luck

Dear aspirant,

As your percentile in cat is 34.66 and your xat score is 30.50 , i dont think that there is any chance for you to get calls from any of the iims and i dont think even XLRI would give a call.

The minimum cut off percentile required to get a call from iim is about 35-40 percentile.

Hello,

The best option to improve accuracy is by solving and practicing as many questions as you can.One should solve a lot of mock papers and strive to improvise on sectional tests .You should time yourself as well to know how fast are you able to solve such questions.An important practice when preparing for all the sections is the need to solve previous papers’ questions of XAT as that gives you a very good idea about what kind of questions to expect and how to tackle them.
