Primary answer
No, each IIM has its own admission policy and weightage distribution. While CAT percentile plays a significant role in shortlisting, many IIMs reduce the weightage of CAT score in the final selection stage. Final composite scores may include components such as CAT score, WAT, PI, academic performance, work experience, and diversity factors. The exact weightage varies annually and differs across institutes.
