@samrat.biswas22 said:I ended up attempting only 17 questions in the 1st section.In 2nd section,i attempted 22 ques and I'm fairly confident that most of them would be correct.so can you give me a rough estimate as to what percentile i may be able to manage with this,assuming that i get around 14-15 correct in the 1st n around 18-19 correct in the 2nd,and also taking into factor that the paper was a bit tougher than that of the last year. can you plz suggest which colleges I should apply to now...I have applied to iift,mdi n a few others.should i fill imt,nitie,fms etc.do suggest some names
I would suggest that you definitely give them a try . You can also look at K.J somaiya , BIM,Trichy , MFC,MIB etc.

There are profile based calls also for which the cut off varies depending on your profile. Also the cut off varies for different streams . The one I mentioned was of general and FE.
