The qualifying IIM CAT cutoff is fixed before the CAT result announcement.	The final cutoff will be fixed after the CAT 2023 results are announced.
Qualifying CAT Percentile for IIM is announced by each campus in the announcement of the admission criteria and selection process for that academic year.	The final IIM CAT cutoff 2023 has not been officially announced yet by any IIM or other top MBA institutes.
Qualifying IIM cutoff 2023 is over the 90 percentile for all IIMs.	The final CAT cutoff will be 99+ percentile for all the best IIMs and 95+ percent for the new IIMs.
The qualifying cutoff contains the CAT sectional cutoff marks and the overall cut off.	The final CAT 2023 cutoff contains a sectional cutoff in cat and CAT percentile for IIM.
The qualifying CAT cut off for SC is fixed. The CAT cut off for IIM for OBC/ General is high.	The final CAT cut off is fixed category-wise. For General category male students with engineering backgrounds, the final cut off is high as compared to reserved-category students, female students, and those with non-engineering backgrounds.

CAT or GMAT which one is tougher?

Both GMAT and CAT exams are considered to be highly competitive. Therefore, it is difficult to measure which one is harder than the other as it depends on the individual strengths ,weaknesses, and personal preferences.

GMAT quant section is often considered to be easier, however, its verbal section is tougher for non-native English speakers. Whereas, CAT quant section is considered to be trickier in comparison to the verbal section. Therefore, students are advised to analyse both CAT and GMAT exam pattern carefully before opting for one.

Hello

Generally admissions are given based on your rank. So based on your overall percentile in JEE your rank could be between 56470 - 63480 approximately.

Unfortunately, Based on the marks you scored, it will be difficult to get admitted into NIT Trichy under OBC category. However there is also a second chance for you to attend for JEE, so I recommend you to take that chance and score better.
