I have very average/poor acads. What are my chances of clearing the GD/PI stage?
There is no minimum mark specified for the CAT. So, what it implies is that unlike other institutes, the IIMs don’t use just acads as a filtering measure. If you are good enough to crack the cat, you are good. Period. The problem arises when you are facing the interview panel; you would be competing against other people who have done equally well, and have better marks backing them. Here, if you can defend yourself in the grilling and prove that your fundae are solid, well, nobody can stop you. And it helps if you do really well in the written.
