Mumbai

I would suggest IMS. Here are my reasons to prefer IMS over TIME.
Faculty and Study Material:
IMS has best in class material exhaustively covering all topics. All faculty members are very supportive and experts in their respective areas. This will help in building strong fundamentals.
SIMCAT:
Now, this is something that puts IMS ahead of all. SIMCATs are meticulously designed by experts and toppers. So, they tend to be the closest to actual CAT. TIME's AIMCATs are not recommended as far as closeness to CAT is concerned.
Secondly, analysis provided by SIMCAT is unparellled. Faculty members also help in analysing SIMCATs as this is a very crucial part of CAT preparation.
Lasty, you get almost 40 (proctered+unprotected) something Mock tests. These are more than enough for any serious candidate.

Dear Dhruv,
From my past experience , I dont suggest anyone to join a distance graduation programme on animation or VFX , due to very poor communication level / due to communication gap , maximum of the students who opt for such courses end up struggling for the exam dates , course completion certification and many more operational issues though out his course .
Yes if you can join a college directly or in the university campus then it may be different .
I suggest to join a long duration course which is by the institutes certification and not a distance course under any university. Also try to get maximum information about an institution before joining , as many of the institutes runs in franchise structure , though they get a brand name but the fact is that every center under the same brand name does not perform same .
Suggestion : Join a long term 3D animation and VFX course under any institutes direct certification and not an university one. Simultaneously join any other regular graduation programme ( BA/B.Sc/B.Com ) under distance mode with proper affiliation. Concentrate on mastering the skills & build a international standard of demo reel , hope fully you can surely achieve success .
If there is anything else , that I can help you out , please feel free to ask.
