This predictor uses historical CAT score-to-percentile trends, slot normalization patterns, and conservative AI-based estimation. While highly indicative, final percentiles may vary based on exam difficulty and normalization.
Yes. CAT uses slot-wise normalization to ensure fairness. The same raw score can result in slightly different percentiles across slots.
Yes. Different categories (GEN, OBC, SC, ST, EWS) have different cutoff percentiles for IIM shortlisting and admission stages.
For top IIMs (A, B, C), candidates typically require 99+ percentile. For newer IIMs and CAP colleges, 94-98 percentile can be competitive, depending on profile and category.
Yes. Candidates in the 95-99 percentile range often receive calls from CAP IIMs, new IIMs, and top non-IIM institutes like MDI, IIFT, and SPJIMR, depending on sectional scores and profile.
