Hello,
Academic score are as of now not required in FMS. So, you can target getting into FMS. For IIMs, it will be difficult in the ones like B or I giving very high weight to past academics. With 98+ percentile, you can get into 2nd generation IIMs.

For old IIMs it depends on your caste category. Also, old IIMs don't shortlist solely based on CAT score. They give a weight to profile so the percentile you require would depend on your profile. Anyways a safer percentile would be 98+ in any case. For FMS and MDI, the cut-off is near 98 percentile for all.

96-97 percentile to get interview call but after that it depends on interview performance.

Above 90 percentage marks were score.

You will need 99+ percentile in CAT to get FMS. FMS is usually a top choice just after IIMs. Hence you need to score higher.

To get into IIMs, FMs, MDI you should at least score more than 96 percentile at CAT. So, prepare well for CAT and go for it.

Aim for 99.6% and above at least. If your percentage is lower than that, it will be difficult in securing a call. It would be hard, but is possible.

Let me first explain the procedure for admission in FMS. You must have a graduate degree with minimum 50% marks and they consider CAT score. The second round is followed by extempore, GD and PI. If you want to increase your chances then first target your CAT score at 99+, then improve your communication skills, keep practicing and work hard as the competition for FMS is fairly high

Last year's final cutoff was 90% around. After that you have minimal score in graduation, 12th and 10th. If you have 99%ile then the interview round is just a formality.

Dear, to be frank industry doesn't recognize part-time executive MBA. You have to do MBA full time i. e., either PGP or PGPX for career shift/job switch and good pay hike. However, executive MBA helps you to hone the additional skills which you may lack currently and many companies encourage their employees to pursue the same. Some companies give promotion to the employees who completes executive MBA from reputed institutes. So to answer in a nutshell, existing organizations may provide career growth for those who complete executive MBA but not the industry. Hope this helps.
Good Luck.
