I have 51% in graduation and 65 and 67% respectively in 10th and 12th, what are the chances of getting a top 4 IIM's and FMS Delhi?

Studied at IIM Ahmedabad

FMS Delhi gives 50% weightage to the CAT score, which maximum weightage is given to the verbal section of the CAT. Class 10th and 12th are given 10% weightage each. If your 10th and 12th score is 60-75%, then you will receive a 5% score, and if it is more than 75%, then you will receive a 10% score. 

Your 10th and 12th score is low, but you can still make up things in the CAT exam, especially in the verbal section and your interview and SOP discussion, interviews at FMS has been given a weightage of 15%. Your graduation percentage is just above the cut-off of 50%, which might create problems for you in admissions, but yes, miracles do happen. 

If you score well in your CAT and interviews, there are chances. For other IIMs, the criteria remain somehow similar. All of them gives priority to CAT score and interviews.

What is the safe score for IIM A?

SM
Sonal Mishra Posted On : April 27th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad

By safe score, I assume you are enquiring about the IIM Ahmedabad minimum cutoff. 

Admission to the top MBA colleges in India including IIMs requires a minimum CAT cutoff of 90 percentile. Tier-1 IIMs such as IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Bangalore, IIM Calcutta, IIM Lucknow, and IIM Kozhikode have a high cutoff around 99+ whereas Tier 2 IIMs requires CAT cut off around 70-80 percentile. 

CAT cut-off 2022 for admission to the IIMs is in the range between 95-100 percentile for all categories. For General category students, the CAT 2022 cut-off percentile for top IIMs is around 98-100 percentile and the cutoff is lower in the case of Reserved Category and baby IIMs. 

Specifically speaking of IIM Ahmedabad, the overall qualifying CAT cut-off is

  • General Category: 80 percentile 
  • NC-ONC and Transgender Categories: 75 percentile 
  • SC and PwD: 70 percentile
  • ST: 60 percentile 

The IM Ahmedabad shortlisting process has begun and the institute has notified the eligible candidates.

Usually, students ranking in the top 300, get CSE, or IT at MPSTME, NMIMS. But this is just a tentative score. There is no such specific cutoff system. NMIMS Cutoff varies each year depending on the availability of seats. 

So, try to score a good rank, to be safe. Since most students choose CSE or IT, the required cutoff remains high.

I got 49 and 70 in 10th and 12th respectively and 7.5 out 10 CGPA in grads. How much do I have to score to get into FMS Delhi?

SJ

According to the eligibility criteria, you must have completed a Bachelor's Degree with at least 50% marks at the graduation level (SC/ST: Passing marks; OBC/PWD/CW: 45% weightage as per university rules) or equivalent CGPA.

It doesn’t mention anything about the 10th and 12th marks for being eligible for admission, but there is a weightage of 

  • Marks obtained in Class X - 10% weightage (60% and above but less than 75%: 5%, 75% and above: 10%)
  • Marks obtained in Class XII - 10% (60% and above but less than 75%: 5%, 75% and above 10%)

So, you will need to perform really well in the SOP, Extempore, and PI along with the CAT exam to stand a chance for admission.

How many marks are required to clear VTU?

SB
Saanvi Bhosale Posted On : April 28th, 2026

CGPA to percentage conversion varies by university—always use your institution's official formula.

Conversion methods:

  • Common Formula: Percentage = CGPA × 9.5 (widely used but not universal).
  • University-Specific: Some use CGPA × 10, CGPA × 9, or custom multipliers—verify officially.
  • Marksheet Reference: Recent marksheets often display both CGPA and percentage equivalents.
  • Official Certificate: For job applications or admissions, request university-issued conversion certificate.
  • Grade Point Scale: 10-point, 4-point, and 5-point scales use different conversion factors.

Check your university's examination section website for authorized conversion formulas. Avoid third-party converters—they may not match your university's method.

What's the GATE rank or score required to get into NITIE?

KG
Khushi Gupta Posted On : August 13th, 2021
PGDPM from National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2019)

As far as I know, if you have a score of 750 or higher, you will be contacted for an interview. For admission to NITIE, you have to pass the Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI).

If you fall into one of the reserved categories, your required score will be lower in order to be called in for an interview.

NITIE Cutoff for GATE (Expected) –

Category GATE Cutoff Scores
General 720 to 760 +
OBC NCL 550+
SC 500+
ST 420+

Placements for all courses are good in my opinion. You can also check out the official website for more specific information.

Why is the cut-off of IIIT Hyderabad so high that it is in fact higher than the top NITs?

AJ
Adinath Jain Posted On : July 28th, 2023
Studied at IIIT Hyderabad

It’s wrong to say that IIIT Hyderabad Cutoff has its cutoff more than NITs when NITs are the ones who are lowering the cutoffs with each passing year. IIIT-Hyderabad has been maintaining its standard from the beginning. Here are a few reasons why IIIT Hyderabad has high cutoffs 

  • Unlike IITs and NITs, IIITs have no reservations, and admission is done on the basis of merit only.
  • No board marks for admission procedure
  • IIIT Hyderabad has built a strong image in terms of placements, academic and research work.
  • IIIT Hyderabad has a very ideal batch size and always gives preference to quality over quantity. 
  • IIIT Hyderabad has a rich coding culture as it is home to some of the best minds in the country.

These are some strong reasons why IIIT Hyderabad has cutoffs even higher than NITs.
