Hi Ray,


XIMB is one of the most renowned B-schools in India, therefore, admission to this institute is also equally tough. Based on the previous year cutoffs and the difficulty level of 2019's paper which was said to be between moderate to diffucult, the expected cutoff/percentile can be expected to vary more positively, that is, the relative percentile to your XAT score can be higher. However, this is just a speculation therefore, I request you to kindly consider it likewise. 

But for your reference, the previous year's CAT and XAT cutoffs were 92+ for both the exams. Therefore, I think it will be difficult to get a call from XIMB.

However, with your NMAT score, again according to previous year eligibility, you can expect (maybe) NMIMS Bangalore and Hyderabad Campus.

I hope this will give you some idea and probably help you out, please contact me for any more queries.

Hello Ray 

There is high chances that of getting admission in XIMB for HR by using your CAT and NMAT score. You have to apply separately for its admission form. 

Thanks and good luck for your career ahead.
