Decide judiciously
Weigh your MBA admission decision taking into account all the pros & cons. Staying back for one full year planning on NO admission in 2015 may cost you a lot. On the other hand it is also very difficult to take admission and prepare again for your MBA entrance exam since life at a management college get tough right from the semester-1. Unless and until you are absolutely sure of getting the other desired top rated B school in 2016, it may not be advisable to invest one more precious year of your life in preparation. There are instances that the candidates with even 99 percentile in CAT could not get a call from any older IIM.

Advisory
With all the results in hand, it is advisable not to wait further if you wish to take admission in any of the above B schools. They will also be closing the admission process shortly
