Institute of Rural Management Anand Answered Questions

So, to answer your question, theoretically, you can convert IRMA with 80% if you meet the rest of the parameters (at least 4 of them including GD and PI). But, practically it is a daunting task to convert IRMA with such a low percentile if you do not have an extraordinary profile.

Personal discussion at IRMA is broadly aimed at understanding the sensitivity quotient of the candidates towards his/her world around. For the fresher's, most of the discussion revolves around graduation subjects (core), hobbies/interests, extra-curricular activities etc. For experienced candidates, the discussion would be on their work experience.
Please be very clear that discussion may not start with a routine question like tell me something about yourself.Good luck.

There is a scholarship for SC/ST covering the entire costs of education of SC/ ST applicants. The Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Government of India has allocated four scholarships to IRMA for SC participants. The scholarship covers fees, non-refundable charges, lodging and boarding expenses, and cost of books, stationery, and personal computer.

With 84 percentile, you may not be able to get into IRMA. However, since admissions are based on the merit, there may be chances that students with a score better than yours don't choose IRMA and luck may knock your door.
Be hopeful but keep other options open.
