Need guidance for CAT 2026
Hi everyone,
I’m preparing for CAT 2026 and would really appreciate some honest guidance regarding my profile and realistic percentile targets.
Profile:
- Female, General
- 10th: 89%
- 12th: 92%
- UG: B.Com (Hons), Delhi University (final sem ongoing)
- CGPA: 8.18 (till Sem 5)
- Academics: Had Maths till 12th
- Coaching: Enrolled in Rodha R7 batch
- CV: Mostly college societies, one 2m internship
My Questions:
- What percentile should I realistically target for BLACKI and top colleges (FMS, SPJIMR, MDI, etc.)?
Given my profile (general Non engineering female + decent academics but no work ex), how much does the percentile need to compensate?
- Any specific strategy changes I should follow considering I had maths till 12th but not in graduation?
- How should I strengthen my profile alongside prep (if at all needed now)?
- Section-wise targets I should aim for?
Prep Status:
Just starting seriously with Rodha. I’m comfortable with basics but haven’t done structured prep yet.
Would really appreciate insights from people with similar backgrounds or converts. Thanks in advance!
