The cutoff scores typically start from the 85th percentile for CAT and XAT, while a CMAT score of 97%+ and a GMAT score above 650 can improve admission prospects.

There is no reservation policy, and the admissions are merit-based. The selection process involves initial examination scores followed by a Written Ability Test (WAT) and Personal Interview (PI).
