What is the usual percentile range scored by the last admit in the HRM program of XLRI, Jamshedpur?
For the Human Resource Management program, the overall cut-off for male engineering applicants is 93 percentile, while it is 91 percentile for female engineering students.
Male applicants with non-engineering backgrounds must have a 90 percentile, while female applicants with non-engineering backgrounds must have an 88 percentile. It's possible that even with a high percentile, you might not be chosen if you have a poor interview performance.
While it's helpful to have some sense of scale, I'd advise shooting for the stars and ignoring percentiles for the time being.

Beyond these options the placement opportunities in other colleges for the HR domain are limited and you have to struggle to bag good offers. Even top IIM’s receive very limited opportunities for the domain of Human resources.
