Hello,

Yes, in India, some seats are reserved for women in certain areas. For example:

  • Education: Some schools, colleges, and universities have a certain number of seats reserved for female students.

  • Jobs: Some government jobs have a reservation or preference for women.

  • Politics: In local bodies like panchayats and municipal councils, 33% of seats are reserved for women.

However, there is no general reservation for women in all areas. It depends on the specific law, scheme, or organization.

Hope it helps !

Hello

With a score of 91.5 in CLAT UG 2026, your expected All India Rank would likely fall somewhere around AIR 500 to 1,000, based on previous years’ trends. The exact rank can shift depending on how tough the paper was and how other students performed. Since you belong to the OBC category, your category rank will be even better. This score definitely keeps you in a competitive range for several NLUs.

Hello,
With a projected CAT percentile of 87% but not clearing sectional cutoffs, your chances at top IIMs are limited because they require both overall percentile and sectional minimums. However, you still have a good shot at other reputed management institutes and non-IIM B-schools. Consider colleges like NMIMS, SPJIMR, IMT, TAPMI, Great Lakes, and other well-ranked private or state-level B-schools that accept CAT scores and weigh your profile holistically. Your academic record, BSc in Animation with 80%, and 5 years of work experience at Ubisoft India are strong points and may help in institutes that value work experience in their selection process. Also, explore institutes that accept XAT, MAT, or CMAT, where your profile can be competitive.
Hope this helps you.
