ISB&M - International School of Business and Media Pune Nande Answered Questions

I am currently studying in this college. It is a student driven college, which helps the students in getting a real exposure of the market and current scenario. Events are organized in college by students which help them in interacting with head of companies. There are also conferences organized for specific specialization like, HR Conference, Risk Roulette, Chain Act, etc.
When it comes to faculty, both the in- house and visiting faculty have a great knowledge of their subject and are very helpful and always available for helping students. Faculties provide Harvard Case Studies and various projects which actually help the students. The faculty does not only rely on bookish knowledge, but field and market experience also, and give live projects which is a great thing for any MBA student.
Coming to placements, this college promises 100% placement and lives up to their promises. High brand companies come for various specialization, students are even offered PPO from companies when they perform well in their internship. The highest package is 16 lakhs and average package goes up to 7.6 lakh. No company offering a package of less than 5 Lakh is allowed to recruit students from our college.
The faculty and management is very helpful and there is a minimum attendance which is required to be maintained throughout the course, which is a good thing.
The college does its best to provide the students with the best market exposure and get them placed in the best company. So if any students is not performing their level best, the college cannot be blamed.
So, in my opinion, this is college worth get admission in. Hope that helps!

No, it's not necessary. Having a work experience has its pros and cons as well. Same goes with fresher. It would be good to have a work experience but it's not necessary. There is no mandatory path. Everyone takes up a route depending on their convenience.

Hi,
To be honest, the scores aren't good enough for you to get into a decent college. With your work experience being not too much, you can still put in more efforts and try next year once again. By then you'd have even longer work experience and another chance at having better scores. Mechanical engineering is best suited for NITIE and IIT Mumbai. You can try for JB or even PUMBA for that matter if you want to stay in Pune.
