JBIMS Mumbai admission doesn't directly use CAT percentile - it uses MH-CET which is state-specific exam. The Reddit commentary noted: "That's the CAT score. He got 99.
9 in MHT CET, and he's from Maharashtra." At JBIMS Mumbai (Rs 4.5L fees, Rs 28 LPA avg, MH-CET 99%+), admission requires Maharashtra domicile status and MH-CET score above 99.
5 percentile typically. JBIMS is one of the few top B-schools with state reservation - 85% seats are for Maharashtra domicile, 15% for outside state. For outside-state candidates, JBIMS requires MH-CET near 99.
9+ percentile in the small OOS quota. For Maharashtra candidates, 99.5+ MH-CET gets admission.
The CAT-based "Nothing below 99.9" comment referred to CAT-route candidates targeting JBIMS through outside-state quota. Maharashtra candidates with 99 MH-CET typically convert.
JBIMS ROI is exceptional: Rs 4.5L fees for Rs 28 LPA average package = Rs 4.5L cost for Rs 28 LPA outcome.
Payback in months. The JBIMS placement data: MBB, IB, FMCG all recruit actively. Small batch (120) ensures individual attention.
For Maharashtra candidates: JBIMS via MH-CET is the strongest B-school option after FMS. For outside-state: target FMS (Rs 2.43L fees) as better ROI alternative via CAT.
Don't try to use CAT percentile for JBIMS - the admission channel is different. Check MH-CET exam timeline and Maharashtra residence requirements before applying. Check your eligibility at collvera.
