Firstly, if you’re worried about placements because of your 10th, 12th or graduation profile, then I don’t think you need to worry too much about it. Very few companies actually consider your past academic profile during placements. Placements are more about your summer internship, the skills you build during your MBA, your overall performance, and how you perform in the placement process.

Yes, your past profile matters quite a lot during the MBA admission process, and every college gives it a different weightage. But once you’re in the MBA, it usually matters much less.

And if you’re really concerned about your academic profile, there are some colleges that give more importance to your CAT percentile and relatively less weightage to past academics. You can look at those colleges as well.
