My Son has got 95.4 Percentile in JIPMAT, what are his chances of selection in IIM Jammu or IIM Bodh Gaya
Ans: Vikas Sir, With a 95.4 percentile in JIPMAT, your son falls below the typical general-category cutoffs of about 98.5–99.3 percentile at IIM Jammu and 99.8+ percentile at IIM Bodh Gaya for 2025, making admission unlikely in initial lists. IIM Jammu shortlists using 95% JIPMAT weightage plus 5% gender diversity, and its general cutoff marks hover around 330–340 raw scores (≈98.5+ percentile). IIM Bodh Gaya relies 100% on JIPMAT scores, setting general cutoffs near 380–381 marks (≈99.8+ percentile). However, lower wait-list rounds may see cutoffs dip by up to 20 marks (≈0.4–0.6 percentile drop), so participation in all lists could offer marginal chances at Jammu if female diversity weight applies or if cutoff trends soften slightly. Recommendation: Remain flexible across counselling rounds, prioritise IIM Jammu preferences given gender-diversity relaxation, and consider alternative IPM or BBA programs as backups. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
