Hello Srisha,
SDMIMD put emphasis on disciplined environment. Hostel rules include no nonveg food inside campus, adhere to timings of hostel like for girls it's 12 o' clock at night. There are not much strict rules as being a management student itself implies that you are mature enough to be well behaved, disciplined & focus on your PGDM.

I am a student of SDM, so I think I can answer this question pretty well. No, SDM has not inflated their placement stats, my all batchmates got placed in top companies. The average placement package is 6.94 LPA. SDM never manipulates or inflates any stats regarding placements & packages.

PGDM in Finance at SDMIMD is one of the best. We have one of the best set of faculty members in the country who are having a rich experience of both corporate and academics. We have recorded an average package of 6.95 lacs this year with a the highest of 10 lacs offered in the finance sector. Coming to internships we have also completed 100% internships with various companies visiting the campus from all the sectors.

For students who have opted for interviews on Skype, they will not be having What. You should be well versed in the current happenings across the world. You maybe given a topic and maybe asked to speak on it for a couple of minutes.
Prepare well and best of luck.

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).

SDMIMD is the best choice for pursuing your MBA, if you are comparing it with ITM. Let it be in terms of corporate learning, package, exposure to industry culture, ethical and social learning, infrastructure, faculty etc.
