There are OBC-NCL and OBC-NCL (PwD) admissions at BIT Mesra through JoSAA counseling. However, 54 seats are offered by BIT Mesra in the OBC category for BC1 and BC2, only to the students of Jharkhand.
The college releases the notification to apply for these seats on its official website. If you are from Jharkhand, you can get a seat at BIT through this allotment scheme, in a branch such as Civil or Chemical. If luck favors you, you may even get into EEE or Mechanical. If you are a non Jharkhand candidate, you can only get in through your general rank in AI quota. Most probably your General AI rank is 80k+. This rank won't be enough to get an admission into BIT.
Thus, your rank won’t possibly get you an admission into BIT Mesra. However, you go for the NIT of your home state.
The CAT percentile required to get into IIMA and IIMC depends on certain factors like:
Prior work experience: Considering your profile, a work experience of 2 or fewer years will require a minimum of 99.3 percentile.
Gender: If you are a male of the general category you will require at least 99.5+ without work experience and 99.7+ with work experience.
Category: Categories other than general can receive calls even with a percentile of 99.
Stream: Non-engineers also tend to receive calls with a percentile of 99.
An important point to note here is that if you get into IIM Ahmedabad with this profile, you will have to work harder than other students to secure an internship or get placed. Most core companies want candidates only with top scores and IIM Ahmedabad happens to have a lot of such students.
You must have a minimum of 50% marks in total to be eligible for admission to JBIMS. You must also be a graduate in any discipline from a recognized institute. Your eligibility for admission will be determined based on your valid scores in MAH CET or CAT. If you are selected for final admissions, you will have the opportunity to benefit from a unique learning experience at JBIMS. The cut-off percentile in entrance examinations changes every year, so you must stay updated on it regularly.
If you meet all these eligibility criteria, you will be considered for further rounds of the admission process.
Please note that for NRI/PIO candidates, the fee for the 2-year MMS program will be increased to INR 12 lakhs per year, which is twice the amount charged to general category students.
Before I discuss your eligibility for admission into XIMB, let’s discuss XIMB Admission Criteria
Your profile seems to fulfill all the eligibility, so what can you do more to maximize your chances of admission? Scoring a high CAT or XAT score can do wonders. A 91+ percentile can make it possible for you to get admission at XIMB.
Yes, students of IIM Ahmedabad with no prior work experience can participate in the double degree programme with the European Institutes. The selection for the same is based on:
Your academic performance
Extracurricular performance
Any foreign exposure
So your work experience has nothing to do with the double degree program. Rather your academic performance at IIM Ahmedabad and prior foreign exposure helps you in getting selected for this program.
I don’t think it's wise to decide to drop out from IIM Lucknow when you already worked hard and cracked the entrance. You even succeeded in the interview and yet here you want to give it all up. Every year the level of difficulty of entrance exams like the CAT and XAT keeps changing. Students who might have scored 90+ percentile one year might score 40-60 percentile next year. It all depends on preparation and mindset. Meanwhile, you have already succeeded and gotten into an IIM so why take it for granted?
Yet if you are adamant about not continuing, I would suggest you just focus on your job and gain a lot of experience. Chances are that you might climb the ladder without an MBA or IIM. Many CEOs and CFOs don’t need an MBA to make them what they are.
Despite it all, if you are appearing again for CAT, then make sure you have a valid explanation of dropping out during your interview.
According to the report of the German Embassy/Consulate, October 2022, students need at least 11,208 EUR (9.84 lakhs INR) in a blocked bank account to apply for the German Student Visa.
