Hi everyone,

I am targeting MBA admission this year (General category, female, engineer; 93 / 62 / 7). No work exp.

Although I’m preparing sincerely and aiming for 95 percentile (based on my potential), I don’t want to take any chances. That’s why I’ve decided to fill forms for all colleges in the 80–99 percentile range, not just the top ones. Could you please suggest which forms I should definitely fill before the exam, so that even if something goes wrong in CAT 2026, I’ll still have options. (better if anybody can provide a list for College accepting 80-99 %ile).

Also For IIFT, should i fill form for IB or BA?? PLEASE genuine advice only.

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to apply for an MBA at a top B-school and wanted to get some honest opinions on my chances. Here’s a bit about me:

Age: 20 will be 21 while getting enrolled

• 10th: 92%, 12th:62%, Grad: Might be 7 cgpa, GEF

• Work ex: No work experience. As I am currently in college. I have 3 months of internship exp and I am currently volunteering in NGO to teach rural kids online.

I am preparing for CAT 2026. As the Registration is open, I wanted to know which colleges should I apply for apart from IIMs?

Really appreciate your guidance.

(Also, After doing my bachelors, i immediately want to pursue masters. I dont want to take gap for work exp. Thanks)

My main question is "Apart from IIMs, Which other colleges should i apply during/after form filling of CAT?"

My profile:

10th: 92%

12th: 55% (ik very low due to mental health issues and sickness)

B.E.: might be getting 7-7.5 CGPA

General Engineer Female

No work Experience. I will be graduating in May-June 2027

(Taking a gap for work exp is not my initial plan though)

I know targeting IIM is kinda impossible for me, considering my 12th result.

I want genuine advice on which colleges should I apply for.

I will be giving CAT 2026. If I score 99 percentile, which colleges should I apply to?

It should be a top MBA college or equivalent to an MBA.
As In most of the colleges, I'll have to apply before CAT Exam.

So what are the realistic Good options with good ROI?

Also As I don't want gap year for work ex. what certificates or courses are beneficial?

General Female.

So I had 92% in 10th class. I fcked up in 12th science due to mental health issues, barely studied and got only 55%. I am still amazed at how I managed to pass. Luckily, got admission in to Goverment engineering College. I am currently in the 7th sem. I decided not to pursue a placement in the engineering field.

I am more focused on my studies now. I decided to prepare for the CAT exam, but due to lower marks in 12th, I might suffer hard.

I want to know what good career options I have, with a great salary package.

I thought about an MBA from IIM. It seems very difficult due to poor performance in the 12th. Do you think I should still appear in the CAT exam? Is there any chance of getting into a good MBA college or a good IIT for MBA?

Or should I go for other options? Like the SSC exam? Or something else. I am not sure.

I wanted to pursue a master's. But from a good reputable college only.

Also, I don't have any work experience. I have only 3 months of internship experience as a business development intern.

Any advice would be really helpful as I am feeling very, very stressed about my career options. I have started preparing for the CAT from yesterday only, and exam is in November.

Please help me out. Suggest something to me.

Thank you.
