Hey everyone,

I wanted some honest guidance on what percentile I should aim for in CAT based on my profile:

•	10th: 75%

•	12th: 77%

•	Graduation: 56%

•	Category: SC

•	Work Experience: 4 months internship + 2 months job (left to prepare for CAT)

I’m planning to prepare seriously and give my best, but I want to understand what percentile range would realistically help me get calls from good colleges (especially top ones like FMS, IIMs, etc.).

Please give practical and honest advice based on experience 🙏

(And yeah, I know the usual answer is “just aim 100%,” but I’m looking for realistic benchmarks)
