Cracking the CAT is tough and few get to the IIMs. For this students go through elaborate courses in tutorials which not everybody can afford. But then that is true not just for management entrance, but equally so for engineering and medical entrances as well. From this point of view, one may say that higher education is an opportunity available only to the financially solvent. I would rather add something more.

And two, if this is a kind of unofficial reservation for the privileged few. I am not sure if it is a banker's ploy but given the floodgates of opportunities a berth in IIM opens to a stud, getting and repaying a bank loan is piece of cake. Coming to your second question. I don't think that finance is a deterrent in securing admission, with the banks more than ready to give away loans to the would be management gurus!
