Colleges in Karnataka

Hello,
There is no gurantee that work experience will fetch you high package.In previous answers I've said that it may give you better understanding in the subjective knowledge.It depends upon how well you represent yourself in interview.For few companies strong academic background is important.Rather than package,focus on organizational learning that you get,work environment and company standard to some extent.
All the best!

You can apply as not only your CAT score will be looked into. SDMIMD looks for students with an overall academic performance and if you have one you may receive a call from SDMIMD. So, give it a try and hope for the best.

PGDM at SDMIMD is one of the best in the country. Here you can opt for dual specialization. Faculty members here have rich academic and corporate experience. Being an IT experience guy systems would be an ideal specialization for you and you can also opt for other streams based on your interests. All streams or specialization are extremely good here, you can opt for any of it. But being from IT background and with companies like TCS, Oracle and Infosys visiting the campus every year that will be your best choice.

Applicants will be shortlisted based on consistent academic performance, competitive exam score and work experience if applicable.
Shortlisted applicants will be called for Personal Interview in March 2018 to be held at several centres across India as mentioned in the Application Form (Skype interviews held on request).

According to me, ITM-Navi Mumbai will be the best PGDM institute for you. As you will get more exposure in ITM than you'll get in XIME-Bangalore. ITM covers students from all over India and so students come from all the parts of India which gives more exposure to the students. When we come to the placements, ITM offers highest 14 LPA and minimum 5 LPA. So, in all terms, ITM will be a good option.

The admission criteria has several considerations such as CAT percentile, prior academics, and diversity in educational background. Although one cannot guarantee anything, having done well in any of these does increase your chances of making it to the final selection.
