  • On the official website, select the program you wish to apply for and click on the link for ‘XAT Cut-Off Marks’ from the drop-down menu.

  • You will be redirected to a new page to check out the XAT Cutoff marks for that particular MBA program.

Factors Determining XAT Cutoff 2024

Different parameters decide the cutoff marks for any examination. Candidates must keep these factors in mind while checking the XAT 2024 cutoff marks. To be placed on the cut-off list, candidates must work hard and prepare well for the XAT 2024. Let’s look at the factors determining the XAT cutoff 2024.

Factors Determining XAT Cutoff

  • Total Number of Candidates: XAT Cutoff 2024 will be heavily influenced by the number of applicants who apply and show up for the XAT exam. A large applicant pool results in greater competition and a higher overall cutoff, whereas a small pool results in less competition and a lower cutoff. Therefore, when the number of applicants is higher candidates can expect the cutoff to be higher as well.

  • Difficulty Level of the Exam: Another important factor that determines the XAT cutoff every year is the difficulty level of the XAT question paper. If the XAT 2024 questions are more challenging, the cutoff score is likely to be lowered and vice versa. The XAT difficulty level is a crucial component that should be considered when figuring out the XAT 2024 cutoff.

  • Total Number of Seats: The availability of seats at an institute that accepts XAT scores also determines the XAT cutoff for that particular institute. The amount of seats each institute offers for admission to its MBA and PGDM programs has an impact on the XAT sectional cutoff. More demand and a higher cutoff are associated with fewer seats, whereas fewer seats and a lower cutoff are associated with more seats.

  • Total Qualified Candidates: The number of candidates qualifying for XAT also influences the cutoff trends for the current academic year. If more candidates qualify for the XAT exam then it increases the number of college applications and the level of competition. This leads to XAT participating institutes to increase their XAT cutoffs to select only the best students out of the entire applicant pool.

  • College Ranking: It is a well-known fact that the best MBA colleges are also the toughest to get into. Since the top-ranked B-schools receive a huge amount of applications every year, the XAT cutoff for these institutes is also high to only allow the best candidates to secure admission.

  • Previous Years' Cutoff: XAT cutoff trends from previous years are also a determining factor for institutes. Typically the XAT cutoff follows a similar pattern as that of last year’s cutoff, both overall and sectional. This is why being aware of the previous year’s cutoff trends can be helpful for candidates who wish to seek admission in the current academic year.

What After XAT 2024 Cut Off?

Once the XAT 2024 cutoff is announced, XLRI Jamshedpur along with other XAT participating colleges will release the list of candidates who have been shortlisted for selection rounds including Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI). The XAT accepting colleges will send the GD/PI call letters to students via email. Aspirants who wish to participate in the XAT selection process of these colleges must fill out the online form to express interest in the same. Candidates must apply to each of the colleges separately since there is no standardized XAT selection process. The GD/PI rounds at XLRI Jamshedpur are conducted in Delhi, Kolkata, Jamshedpur and Bangalore. Candidates must check the official website of their preferred colleges to know how the XAT selection process will be conducted for those institutes.

XAT 2024 Selection Process

Based on the performance in the XAT 2024 exam, Group Discussions (GD), and Personal Interviews, the XLRI Jamshedpur admission committee chooses applicants for admission to its PGDM programs (PI). For the HRM and BM programs, the institute sets a minimum cutoff for each category of students specifically for this reason. On the institute website, an online application form must be filled out by candidates who have achieved the XAT cutoff.

According to each participating institute, the XAT 2024 selection process is different. GD and PI rounds are part of the selection process. The institute selects a small group of candidates for the GD/PI phase. There is no unified process; each XAT participating institute has its own selection process. Students who are selected for XAT counselling are those whose scores placed them on the final merit list.

In campuses located in cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, and Jamshedpur, this GD/PI round is held in February. GD/PI rounds have been conducted online since 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Candidates are shortlisted for offers of admission following this tough personality assessment process. To the chosen applicants, email offers of admission are made in May.

Que: How will candidates know if they have converted their XLRI interview call?

Ans: XLRI Jamshedpur notifies each candidate by email regarding their selection. The interview round takes place in February or March, and the chosen candidates receive their offer letters in April or May. Individuals who do not receive the confirmation letter may assume they have not been accepted.

Que: Do candidates have to fill out the XLRI admission form separately?

Ans: Candidates can select XLRI Jamshedpur as a preferred college in the XAT 2024 application form. For XAMI member institutes or other MBA colleges accepting XAT, candidates have to register separately on their respective official websites when the applications open.

Is the XAT sectional cutoff also considered for admission to institutes?

No, you cannot get admission to XLRI without clearing the XAT cutoff. Also clearing the XAT cutoff does not guarantee admission to the institute. You will have to outperform the other candidates in group discussions and personal interview rounds.

What is XAT cutoff?

The XAT cutoff percentile is the minimum score that candidates must achieve to qualify for the XAT 2023 examination. It is the basis on which XLRI will shortlist the candidates for the next rounds of the selection process. Only the candidates who will score above the XAT cutoff will be eligible for admission to XLRI. 

What is the importance of XAT cutoff during the XLRI PI selection?

When choosing candidates for the personal interview stage at XLRI Jamshedpur, the XAT cutoff is the most crucial factor. People who don't make the cutoff aren't even considered for PI shortlisting. Class 10, 12, and graduation grades, as well as the XAT cutoff, are the two primary factors used to choose candidates for the PI round.

What is the XAT sectional cutoff?

The minimum percentile that applicants must achieve for each section of the exam is known as the "sectional cutoff" for the XAT. A candidate must have achieved at least 85 percentile in the XAT's Quantitative Aptitude part in order to be shortlisted for a group discussion and personal interview, for instance, if the test's cutoff is 85 percentile.
