Okay. But as you told that highest %ile till now has been 45. So you have a long way to go. I would suggest you not to apply to any of the colleges as of now. Try to focus hard now and improve your Score. Practise a lot. If you keep doing so, I am sure you will enhance your score.Since you are a fresher, you must not be in hurry to do MBA. All the Best.. !!

Buddy,

I will suggest to apply to SIIB and may be to SIBM if you can score really good marks in written. SCMHRD looks slightly difficult hence not suggesting to apply to it. Also, SIOM might not be a good fit seeing your background!

And other symbi colleges, in my opinion you can always give a skip and try for better colleges!

I agree with what Vision. Many of my friends faced problems in getting shortlisted in companies due to not having 60+%in any one of the heralds of their academic careers (10th, 12th, grad) They did get placed, but please understand yo miss all those companies which you dream of getting into. Not getting placed in the Placement week is like a compromise with the career in itself, and that usually happens when you join a Tier 2 college.

If you go by my personal opinion, then I will definitely ask you to consider only SIBM Pune, and SCMHRD (If you can muster a HUUUGE score)

SIIB, SIOM, and there onwards, everything would not satisfy you after your 2 years, and you will be left with a tinge of frustration in your heart.

my scores in AIMCATs are fluctuating between 85-90 %ile..

my acads are
X - 76
XII- 83

Go ahead and apply wherever you wish to study!! Except few IIMs and S.P.Jain, I dont see an issue anywhere among top 15 B-Schools!

Cheers and All the best!

Just a modification :mg:

This can happen anywhere you study.. I know friends from A,L,I,MDI,NITIE and name any other top B-School who have the above feel!!

At the end of the day, things depend on you .. how you carve out career from what college provides you!! And MBA is not going to give anyone everything he/she desired on day 1 of moving out of college, one needs to be patient, aggressive in displaying key skills, produce results , network and project yourself as the best candidate for initial 1-2 years before start living near to the dreams you had while getting into a top B-School!


my acads are not so good... 10th 76.2% 12th 59.4% B.Tech(ECE) 69.85... i don't have eye-catching extra curriculars... just a few crtcts...
Work Exp: 30months (Junior Engineer in Delhi Metro)... i hav NC-OBC rsrvtn...
my CL proc scores hover between 70-85%... Last year I got 83% in both CAT & XAT...
could anyone pls suggest me the colleges that i must apply for...
do I stand any chance at IMI, SNAP colleges & SPJAIN...
@visionIIM-ACL , thanx Sir.. u suggesting SIIB.. if i look budget wise.. what would u suggest me.. SNAP or FEB MAT ..? m giving dec mat for sure .. bt jst to have a backup ?
