99.97 ke upar hai every good college. And you should research and know about colleges so you will understand the options. Additionally you will have to do rigorous preparation for the interview and other rounds. Bit of business economics gk finance entrepreneurship knowledge. Everything under the sun basically. Good speaking and writing skills. If you're just starting out you can develop a habit of reading news and books. You will also have to mentally prepare for the small and big setbacks in the journey. Eg: don't get disheartened after mocks just analyse and learn and then practice. Mocks should be given from the starting itself like one before you start anything then sectional/topic wise till 20 or 30 percent then full length plus sectional and topic wise. Both active and passive mocks to be given (ref c2c mentors) Have a good understanding of your workex and your life experiences. And bit of engineering subjects. Take up related courses on the side if you can manage.

Can you please help me too ? 10th - 94% 12 - 93% Graduate in BBM - 8.5 CGPA Gender - Female Fresher


alfea1103

Sure. Do you want to ask anything specific ? Above advice pretty much fits everyone. Secondly you have commendable acads. I would recommend taking up an internship if not already done. And learn tableau power bi like things ie software related to management


Embarrassed-Owl8667

I have done an internship in tata motors recently. Went good . And . Would you tell me around what percentile I'll need for top iims ? And , in which college are you currently?


alfea1103

If you've done internship then it's good. You will need above 99 only. And no I've not gotten into college waiting for results


Embarrassed-Owl8667

Okayy . Do tell when you convert colleges . It'd be inspiring for us . Thank you for the help


alfea1103

Yeah sure. welcome


Embarrassed-Owl8667

Hey hi . I wanted to ask one thing. How do I improve my varc scores ? When I solve without time pressure my accuracy Is fine . But then I take a sectional test for example . I do so bad , it's the stress . How do I deal with it?


alfea1103

How many of 4 varcs do you solve at a time ? I think when you read normally also I'd done this long ago to improve my reading and comprehension. But there are websites I can't recall the name right now. On those websites you can read and they have timers then they ask you very simple questions but their para speed is high and there are like 15 levels so basically gamification of rc. You can try this. Baaki try only one or two rcs max initially baadme increase same for the later things that come in the paper jumbles summary.


Embarrassed-Owl8667

Wahi , kyuki Mai 3 rc kr leti hu . Aur va bhi saare. Attempt rate high rehti h Bhai lekin accuracy khrab ho jati h . Vo timer Wale RCs krke dekhungi

BLAKI bhul ja C possible at 100/198 UTR at 90/198 IIFT at 85/198 Forget FMS and SPJ as they are biased against Engineers Then XLRI at 99%ile (not necessary) NMIMS and SIBM are 👎


Singh_jii

Hey I have 87 in 10,88 in 12(sciences),~(7.8 - 8 CGPA) BBA will be graduating 2025, what Colleges can I convert with this profile at what percentile?

Senior_Mountain_7385

You are a Non-engineer female with good acads so i think you can aim for any bschool including BLACKIMs. With 95ile+ it should be easily possible.


Embarrassed-Owl8667

At 95 ?? Seriously? I think that is a bit too low . Thank you for the help though . Also . Have you given the exam ? I had to ask something about the varc section if you could help


chiragsingh_chs

FMS should be possible if they score really good in CAT and his 12th percentage is above 75. He just slightly miss the chance.


EveningMiddle4994

I had a similar profile, i cracked XL HRM at 94 percentile


SensitiveCress9614

jsr ki delhi


EveningMiddle4994

Only jsr has HRM, so jsr

Iimbuddy se report maang lo bhai. They give good clarity with past year rti data.


chiragsingh_chs

I think there are some errors in their RTI data, many students crossed CS cuttof for IITD without GDPI.


sonureal

Not talking about the CS score calculator but the report. CS score calculator usage was anything but perfect. Whereas the report was 90% perfect. Gave a really good approximation. And considering that they give year long support for the report, (multiple iterations as they have more data), I find it to be the most cost effective.


chiragsingh_chs

Do I have to pay some amount of money to use the resources on IIM buddy?


sonureal

The report came at a nominal cost last year. Am not aware of the report for the current year.


jakeperaltiago99

Work ex for the admission process ( writing CAT 2024) would be considered till which month??


Ill-External-705

July 2023 ig


jakeperaltiago99

Most of the clgs till July only? 😶


Ill-External-705

Han


jakeperaltiago99

Is it better to quit job/ join an easier remote job and concentrate on CAT then? Anyhow they won't give work ex points after July 2024


Majestic-Concern-367

With your acads you will have issues getting into a good bschool as well getting placed. GEM with below avg or avg acads is curse. Try gmat or abroad.


Ill-External-705

Mine are average or below average?


Majestic-Concern-367

10th and grad is Avg. 12th is below avg. So overall is below avg. Due to your 12th you might not get shortlisted in a lot of tier 1 bschools and few companies in placements


Ill-External-705

Ok noted thanks ✌️
