Hi aspirant,

Both TIME and IMS are good options for CAT coaching in Kanpur. Nonetheless, TIME is generally regarded as slightly superior because of its high-quality materials, faculty reputation and AIMCAT test series, whilst IMS is well-known for its pleasant faculty and SIMCAT series. Both TIME and IMS offer great mocks. However, TIME mocks are thought to be more difficult than the real exam. IMS mocks, on the other hand, are almost an accurate representations of the actual exam. In terms of pricing, both need significant investment of around  50-60K. Thank you and all the best!

It is more challenging than the actual exam. Whereas, IMS mocks are comparable to the actual exam. Nevertheless, TIME is frequently regarded as marginally superior due to its high-quality materials, faculty reputation, and AIMCAT test series, whereas IMS is renowned for its friendly faculty and SIMCATs. Regarding the pricing structure, both require a substantial sum of money, approximately 50-60k.

All the best!

Hi Manoj Singh, to join XIME Bangalore you must have overall cutoff of 75 percentile in CAT for PGDM/MBA, it also considers sectional scores with minimum of 40% in each section. Based on the scores candidates are shortlisted for Group Discussion(GD) and Personal Interview rounds.

It's difficult to predict admission outcomes, but I'd estimate your chances as follows:
