IIM Bangalore - Indian Institute of Management

I will be honest that IIM Bangalore is going to be very difficult for you. But, you can target IIM C, they give very low weightage to graduation marks.

I would suggest you look at the official site of IIM Banagalore for the same. But, in general you need to give GMAT, prepare a SOP and get some recommendations. All this is then followed by an interview.

Yes, you seems to be eligible. But, eligibility won't guarantee you an admission. So, you should prepare well for the GMAT.

See, there are many criteria which IIM-A, B, and K will consider before giving out interview calls or final admission. Like your graduation stream, graduation percentage, quality of work experience, and extracurricular (though there is no separate weightage for this, but it helps you a lot during interviews) and the list goes on. So, if you can share some more details about your profile, I can give you more meaningful answer. Still, considering these two things for IIM-K, I think anything above 88-90 percentile may get you an interview call. I cannot comment on IIM A and B.

I personally can give you information about Doon Business School, Dehradun as I am a student here. 60% scholarship can be availed with 90 percentile score in CAT exam at Doon Business School, Dehradun. So, that is just less than Rs 2 Lacs for entire course. The highest placement of DBS, Dehradun went upto INR 22.5 LPA last year.

All good things are mostly difficult. Just try and understand what an FPM is instead, opportunities, time required, uncertainty, your love for research etc. Just because things are easy or difficult doesn't make them good or bad. Match your priorities/goals in life to the opportunity and you will do well.

Check the relevant cutoff list. I guess you also have to qualify GD/PI to get a final convert in IIMs.

Sorry, but it will be quite difficult for you to get into IIM-A and B. As C doesn't have a graduation criteria (i.e. zero weightage to graduation score) it would be your best shot. Additionally, I would not suggest you to go to any of the IIMs as then you would be competing for jobs with the best profiles of the country, and this might dilute your profile and competition. But, it is your choice at the end.

Your chances seem quite decent. I would suggest you use Shiksha's Call Predictor to get a better idea of what different CAT percentiles would do for your chances to get a call. By the way, NITIE and IIM A, B and C are quite different. NITIE has a much stronger focus on operations while IIMs don't focus at all on operations (even the roles in operations are quite limited).
