Questions related to CAT
With a CAT rank of 5419, your percentile is around 95 to 97. This means you may not get into the top IIMs like Ahmedabad, Bangalore, or Calcutta, because they usually take students above 98 or 99 percentile. But you still have good chances at newer IIMs and other top MBA colleges.
You can get admission into IIMs like Amritsar, Raipur, Jammu, Udaipur, and Bodh Gaya. These IIMs accept students with lower percentiles, usually between 90 and 94.
Apart from IIMs, you can also get colleges like MDI Gurugram, IMI Delhi, Great Lakes Chennai, and maybe even FMS Delhi or JBIMS Mumbai depending on your category and performance in interview rounds.
You should now start preparing for the interview, group discussions, and written tests that most colleges will conduct after shortlisting you based on your CAT rank.
Here are websites you can check for cut-off and admission details:

Hello Sahitya
For FMS Delhi, your percentile should be 99%+ and it should be 99.5%+ to be on the safer side.
Now coming to the academics:
1. 10th marks: 75%+ are given 10 out of 10
2. 12th marks: 75%+ are given 10 out of 10
3. Graduation marks: FMS doesn't considers graduation marks for screening.
So if you have 75%+ in both 10th and 12th, you will get full marks in academic score.

Hello Ayush

These are some other good colleges except IIM ABC which you can aim for:
TIER 1:
- IIM Lucknow
- IIM Kozhikode
- IIM Indore
- IIM Shillong
- FMS Delhi
- SPJIMR Mumbai
- MDI Gurgaon
- IIFT Delhi & Kolkata
Tier 2:
- NMIMS Mumbai
- SIBM Pune
- SCMHRD Pune
- IMT Ghaziabad
- XIM Bhubaneshwar

Hello Aspirant,
With an AIR (All India Rank) of 1,60,000 in NEET and in the OC (Open Category) there is a very slim chance of getting an MBBS seat in a government medical college, especially in General Category seats through All India Quota (AIQ), but here are some options:
- MBBS in Private Colleges: You could get a seat in a private medical college through the state quota, especially in Tier 2/3 states where the cutoffs are relatively lower. The fee would be high compared to government colleges.
- BDS Seats: You have fair chances for BDS in both government & private dental colleges under the state quota.
- Deemed Universities: Some deemed universities may offer MBBS seats at this rank but the fee is exorbitantly high (15 to 25 lakhs/year).
- Management/NRI Quota: If you can afford, you can explore MBBS through management/NRI quota seats in private colleges.
- Alternatives: You can think of allied health science courses such as BAMS, BHMS, B.Sc Nursing etc., which also have good career scope.
You can also participate in state counselling rounds, as sometimes, seats remain vacant/unfilled, including mop-up rounds.
