MBA/PGDM

Hello Priti, For any good B-School, both its reputation as well as location matters. However, I think reputation slightly holds more significance in deciding a particular B-School. For example: when choosing between IIM Kozhikode and NMIMS-Mumbai, NMIMS wins over the location factor but IIM wins over the brand/reputation aspect. Still, you will find many folks preferring an IIM over a non-IIM just because of its brand.

Yes, it is a better option as it leads you to some specific course and this course is not offered by many public university so it is valuable.

FMS and IMI are the only two good B-schools for pursuing MBA/PGDM in Finance. However, both consider scores of only CAT. The other B-schools (apart from these two) are not really worth taking admission; consider them only as backup.

Hello Mani,

Hi friend,
It is not necessary that being a PGDM guy from an average college is so win-win situation as it is shown. I would request you to give MAT once again to get tier I colleges to mitigate the risk of investment. However, after May MAT, you can hardly get a good college which can give a secured job profile but can try XIME-Kochi, NIBM-Pune, IIRM-Hyderabad.

IIMs have more than 99.5 percentile as their cut-off. Depends on college to college.
