How many people from other cities take admission in MBA colleges (JBIMS, NMIMS, Welingkar) in Mumbai? Generally what is the ratio in a batch?

To answer this question accurately might be difficult since we do not have the internal data with us and the exact numbers can vary year to year. But, commonly, large numbers of students are from outside Maharashtra.

In JBIMS, the number of non-domicile seats is 18 out of 120, so you can't expect those 18 students to be from outside Maharashtra. It is worth noting that the exact ratio would also depend on several factors like the college's popularity, the number of seats available, and the program they are offering.

Which college is better for a part time MBA: JBIMS or NMIMS?

AG
Akriti Gupta Posted On : June 20th, 2023
lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

The way I look at and assess a part-time MBA is different from how I look at and assess a full-time one.

So, I’ll probably look at a few things

  1. Faculty and course structure: NMIMS aggressively markets for their course and sells it better to you. JBIMS, on the other hand, doesn’t. I have had students who have done their part-time but that’s long ago. So, I’m not going to say anything about the course. A thorough research would help. If there is no great difference then I would look at these factors
  2.  Location: As a working professional and a parent, this matters to me. Taking up a course doesn’t change things for me. In fact, I tend to work harder to keep my family happier, somewhere knowing that I’m taking my time away from them. So traveling to the college should be convenient and more important should be the commute back.
  3.  Fees: This is also a factor worth considering. I usually think of what I will learn and many other factors. However, this factor will be important since the course will be self-sponsored and affordability will be paramount.
  4.  Course flexibility: This is also something I will consider. I’m sure the course would take into consideration the work schedules and hectic work life of their students, but as an entrepreneur, I will also consider the flexibility offered for attendance and submissions.

The primary focus should be to enjoy the learning experience and knowing your goals and how it is transacted is very important and must not be compromised.

Which is the better option, JBIMS or IIM Lucknow?

RJ
Rajat Jain Posted On : January 9th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Lucknow (Graduated 2021)

Considering the ROI and fees, JBIMS is a better option than IIM Lucknow. Also, it is affiliated with Mumbai University so has a brand name also. But in reality, these factors are short-term and cannot be considered if you are investing in your career. 

Overall, IIM Lucknow has an upper hand in almost all aspects. Be it placements, faculty, or brand name. Had I been in your place I would have chosen IIM Lucknow mainly because 

  • Strong alumni base spread throughout India and even globally 
  • It is a residential campus. The hostel facility is top notch and living and interacting with your batchmates is a great experience.

Both these aspects are lacking in the case of JBIMS because it is standalone and has a very weak alumni network. It also lacks accommodation facilities.

Overall both colleges have roughly the same worth and choosing one over the other is just a matter of preference.

What is the exact criteria for selection in JBIMS MBA degree program if you don t have the domicile of Maharashtra Is CMAT score valid for PGDM and MBA program or it is just MAH CET

AM
Alapon Mitra Posted On : June 23rd, 2023
studied at Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies

Firstly, JBIMS doesn't offer an MBA course. Instead, it offers an MMS course, which is the same as an MBA. Second, there is no PGDM program at JBIMS.

JBIMS Mumbai only offers three full-time programs: the flagship MMS, which is affiliated with Mumbai University, and in-house MHRD (master's in human resources) and MSc Finance. The selection process for these in-house programs is different, and it includes a minimum score on the CAT or CET test and a GDPI.

Now, for the most popular course at JBIMS, the MMS, all you have to do is get the cut-off score. There are no other selection factors, so if you get the cut-off score, you'll be on the list. JBIMS now only accepts MAH-CET, CAT, and CMAT scores.

The cutoff is usually very high. The cutoff for students in the open category is between 99.9 and 99.8. 85% of the seats are held for students from Maharashtra, and the other 15% are for candidates from all over India. Since JBIMS is a government college, places are set aside for OBC, SC, and other groups.

To sum up, JBIMS doesn't have a GDPI selection process like the IIMs do. Instead, you just have to get the cutoff score and you'll get into the MMS course.

Should one write MHCET if aiming for only JBIMS in Maharasthra?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : June 7th, 2023

Yes, it is crucial to take the Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MHCET) if you especially want to be admitted to JBIMS in Maharashtra. The MHCET scores are one of the main considerations for admission to JBIMS' MBA programme.

MHCET results are accepted by other management institutions in Maharashtra as well, however JBIMS is regarded as one of the best business schools in the region and has a highly tough admissions procedure. Therefore, a high MHCET score will boost your chances of being selected for following JBIMS selection stages.

In addition to MHCET, JBIMS also takes into account the applicant's academic standing, professional background, and GD-PI round performance while deciding whether to admit them. To improve your chances of being admitted to JBIMS, it is crucial to adequately prepare for all areas of the admission procedure.
