Greetings,
The precise number of students who can pursue an M.A. at SIMC Pune varies according on the year and program.

But here's a summary in general: Total amount of M.A. intake: All of SIMC Pune's M.A. programs, including Mass Communication (MC), Audio Visual Production, and other specialties, accept between 250 and 300 students.

Specific Intake for Programs: The majority of students are usually enrolled into the M.A. in Mass Communication (MC) degree; between 150 and 200 are accepted each year. There are only 50–75 students accepted annually into the M.A. in Audio Visual Production program.

Program Popularity: A program's level of popularity can have an impact on how many people apply. Faculty Availability: The magnitude of the intake may also be impacted by the availability of faculty members.

Thank you.

Greetings,
For 2024 admissions, the SIMC Pune MBA cutoff information is yet unknown since the SNAP test hasn't been held yet. The official SNAP cutoff score for the SIMC Pune MBA can vary from year to year, however it often hovers around the 75+ percentile. However, because of the popularity and competitive nature of the program, it's imperative to aim far higher, closer to the 80th percentile or above. Furthermore, SIMC administers an entrance exam for MBA programs that is institute-specific and often has substantially higher cutoffs—often above the 90th percentile. Recall that admittance is not determined only by test results. A strong showing in the written ability test, the group discussions, and the personal interviews is important. For official announcements and the most recent cutoff information as soon as it becomes available, check out SIMC's website.
Thank you.

Greetings,
The following lists the entrance exam scores, broken down into seven points, that SIMC Pune recognizes for MBA admission: Two Principal Choices:

There are two entrance tests available for the SIMC Pune MBA program: Symbiosis National Aptitude Test, or SNAP: It is generally acknowledged that programs at SIU should strive for a 75th percentile or above.

 SIMC MA (MC) Online Admission Exam: The competencies tested in this institute-specific exam are pertinent to media management. Cutoffs are frequently higher than the 90th percentile and much higher than SNAP.

Minimum Score for Graduation: You must have a bachelor's degree with at least 50% of the possible points (45% for SC/ST), regardless of the exam you choose. Welcome to newcomers: While related internships or activities can bolster your candidacy, work experience is not required.
Thank you.

Greetings,
No Minimum Marks: In theory, there isn't a minimum number of marks needed to graduate from Class 12 or the SIMC Pune MBA program. Put entrance exams first:

The main factors determining admission are your performance on the SIMC MA (MC) Entrance Test (high 90s!) or SNAP (75+ percentile suggested). Requirement for Graduation: A bachelor's degree with at least 50% of the possible points (45% for SC/ST) from any accredited university is required. In addition to scores, the written ability test, personal interview, and group discussion phases are all very important in the selection process. Aim High: Since cutoff scores are subject to change, your chances of success are increased if you aim much above the specified percentiles. Comprehensive Performance: Pay close attention to delivering exceptional results across the board in exams and interviews, as well as demonstrating your enthusiasm and potential for an MBA.
Thank you.

Greetings,

SIMC has its own selection procedure for M.A. programs; they do not use the IPU CET.

Two Primary Exams: Either the national SNAP exam or the institution-specific SIMC MA (MC) Entrance Test must be completed successfully. High Cutoff Scores: In the SIMC MA (MC) Entrance Test, the cutoff is usually around 90+ percentile, or 75+ percentile in SNAP for M.A. candidates. Prioritize More Than Just Scores: Crucial roles in the selection process are also played by the written ability test, personal interview, and group discussion. Other Choices: Look into M.A. programs at other colleges that accept the results of the IPU CET. Think About Retaking the Test: To raise your score if SIMC is your primary choice, consider retaking the SNAP exam or getting ready for their M.A. Entrance Exam. Do Extensive Research: Examine M.A. programs offered by various universities according to your interests, professional objectives, and fit

Thank you.
