The best decision of my life I had taken for myself.
Placements: Almost the complete batch was placed. The highest package was more than 20 LPA, and the lowest was around 8 LPA. The average was around 15 LPA. Top companies were AbInbev, ITC, Wells Fargo, and JPMorgan. Almost everyone got an internship, and the most sought-after roles were marketing and product manager.
Infrastructure: The classrooms were amazing with Wi-Fi, smart boards, and AC. We had Bloomberg terminals, too. It was very helpful in our learning. Our hostel was amazing too, with really good food. We had all the possible sports courts available to us. The sports culture at KJSIM is really good.
Faculty: There is a very interactive learning in class with the help of case studies and live examples. Hands-on experience on major topics. Presentations were a crucial part of the learning. The exams were not very difficult. All the students were industry-ready when we graduated.
Other: I chose KJSIM for its vast history and name in the industry. Everything was on point during my 2 years there. Best decision of my life. Best investment too.

Full review of KJ somaiya institute of management.
Placements: I am not sit for placement but I far as I known placement is satisfactory. There is benefits like college is in Mumbai; more companies visit here than in Tier 2 cities. Companies like Deloitte, KPMG, HDFC bank and Amazon visit for placement. The highest package offered is around INR 27 lacs, while the average package is INR 14 lacs. The placement percentage is usually high, near 90%, in which many students build their own businesses, some pursuing higher education in foreign countries. Internships are given in the second semester. I selected Primewise Consulting for an HR intern. This company has tried with the college for internship .
Infrastructure: KJ's campus and campus life are both vibrant. I need to walk a lot on campus and it is tiring. Limited parking spaces on campus are convenient for us. But college infrastructure is amazing; it is the best thing. We do not have to bring books; college gives a bunch of course book copies from the library. We have a great collection of books in the library. Bloomberg terminals are being set up, and campus classrooms are well furnished with projectors and AC. The hostel facility is not good; it does not have AC. Basic facilities like laundry and a gym have separate feels. The meal is very repetitive, but the taste is okay. Sports are a very good event; indoor sports are played outdoors.
Faculty: I will rate the course as 7/10. The curriculum lacks practical exposure at times, and there are very few field trips than there should be. The curriculum covers almost everything, and faculty members are mostly Ph.D. holders with a lot of experience. The college follows a trimester system, where an exam is given every 2–2.5 months. The difficulty level is easy to moderate.
Other: KJ is a brand; its name is enough and the most important college is located in Mumbai, where most companies come for placement. That is the reason for choosing this college. In Mumbai, there are much more problems on campus.

Kj Somaiya's MBA is the best.
Placements: Approximately 96 percent of students were placed in our course. The highest package offered was 26,00,000. The average package ranged from 12,00,000 to 16,00,000, and the lowest was approximately 10,00,000 to 12,00,000. All students got internships. The top roles offered were in finance or financial research, as well as in marketing. There are many roles, so I can't mention a single one and others.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available at our college are very good. The college has a very big campus, which is lush green. There is Wi-Fi all around the campus. There are around 10 to 15 canteens all over the campus, and they serve pure vegetarian food of very nice quality.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They know exactly how to teach students to oppose graduated students regarding their answers. The course is very relevant and helps in real-life problems and how to deal with them. The semesters are not that difficult; it depends on the person and the subject.
Other: Our batch has around 600 students, and each class has 64 students. As for myself, I don't prefer anything to be improved about the college. There are many events, fests, campus crowds, connectivity, campus surroundings, and scholarships. Extracurricular activities are held around the corners. The surroundings are very good. There are many scholarships for students who really deserve them.

It is a decent MBA college with good infrastructure and placements. 
Placements: As an ex-member of the placement committee, I can say that the placements here are decent. At the end of the programme, apart from maybe a handful of students, all got placed. The highest salary package was around 24 LPA. The lowest salary package could be around 6-7 LPA, and the average salary package is around 12–14 LPA. Arctium, GEP, De Shaw, Infosys, Accenture, and 100+ companies attend our college for the placement process. Around 100% of students got internship opportunities, and many of them got offers from finance firms, market research firms, and consulting firms like Michael Page, GEP, Digit Insurance, Tata Motors, etc. The top roles that were offered for our course are management consultant, analyst, business analyst, project manager, team lead, key account manager, etc.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure of our college are decent. The rooms are good with projectors. Wi-Fi access was spotty a few years back and could have improved now. The library is generally good enough for getting required books as well as serving as a study hall. Mess food isn't that great, it would definitely need some adjusting to it. The canteen food is great. There is an amazing synthetic running track, volleyball and football courts.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are very good and would need a bit of understanding in the early stages to have a smooth run. Teaching quality is subjective and also changes with professors, but overall it is decent with some really good ones. The course curriculum is standard, following the AICTE norms. Exams are nothing to worry about, there will be enough preparatory help to clear them.
Other: I got to enjoy Mumbai life for a couple of years. The batch mates, and Ghatkopar's surroundings are amazing. There are enough clubs and committees to keep yourself engaged. The communication between students and management needs some looking into but it's a decent college to do your post-graduation.

I would like to go back and live that time always and forever, and the experience is good.
Placements: Around 100% of students were placed. The highest salary package offered was 30 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 5 LPA. The average salary package offered was 8 LPA. For marketing, top roles mostly were into the sales side followed by branding and marketing. Advertising and media management roles were very few. Viacom18, Mckinsey, Salesforce, GoDigit, Axis Bank, etc., were the companies to watch out for. Around 70-80% of students got internships because students themselves opt-out mostly.
Infrastructure: The hostel will always be the place, and one should experience personal growth while being in that type of collaborative environment. It also helps one of the biggest take-aways from MBA, i.e, networking. The Wi-Fi was slow but manageable. Laboratories and libraries were resourceful enough. The food in the hostel was very inconsistent and seems distasteful a lot of times. The morning and evening snacks were always the ones to watch out for. The medical facilities were decent however no emergency and medical facilities were available. Somaiya has always been widely involved in sports and games, and hence, the college offers ample opportunities for it.
Faculty: Teachers were helpful and highly qualified. The curriculum was relevant enough but a lot depends on the job profile one opts for. Semester exams were a good test of students' learning and allow them to judge themselves fairly. The pass percentage was around 35-40% out of 100.
Other: Events were great in this college. It was a great developmental phase for me.

College is average with high fees, awesome campus, well-qualified teachers, below-average placement.
Placements: I am from the batch of 2020-2022. Unsatisfactory placements and mismanagement are observed throughout the placement process. The salary package offered is extremely poor, so I suggest not to expect any help from the internal committee. Overall, I won't recommend this college if you are serious about getting a good placement. The highest salary package offered is around 8 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is about 2 LPA.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is excellent with all facilities provided, and it is maintained as per said by the institution. Hostels and canteens are closed during the lockdown. Else both hostels and more than 8 canteen facilities are available throughout the college campus.
Faculty: It is tough enough to crack the trimester exam pattern. Faculty members are excellent and highly qualified, and they have teaching experience of more than 8-10 years. Students are given multiple assignments, and unit tests are conducted as well. Students are also asked to do 2-3 mini-projects each trimester.
