How are XLRI, XIMB, FMS, and NITR to pursue MBA (BM)? What about the placements?

A
Admin Posted On : March 1st, 2024

Consider joining FMS if you don’t have an extraordinary academic background. It is a renowned business school with a really good ROI. Moreover, it only expects a good performance in CAT, and does not consider the past academic performance of the candidates. 

Here are some other benefits of joining FMS for your management studies-

  1. It is located in the capital, and thus offers a good exposure.
  2. As a student of FMS, you’ll get to attend a number of seminars, workshops and events.
  3. It has two semesters per year, unlike other business schools that have three. This provides ample time to the students to participate in a number of corporate competitions on national and international level. 
  4. It is one of the oldest business schools, and it has a strong alumni network.

All these facts make FMS a really good college for management studies.

Which would be the best to join for an MBA: Narsee Monjee, XIMB, or IMT Ghaziabad?

SS
Shiv Shakti Posted On : February 16th, 2023
MBA in Marketing & Analytics, Institute of Management Technology, Ghaziabad (Graduated 2018)

 There are several factors to take into account when deciding between Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS), Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (XIMB), and Institute of Management Technology (IMT) Ghaziabad. All three institutes are considered to be reputable and comparable in many ways, but each has its own unique strengths and weaknesses.

One disadvantage of Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies is its large batch strength. With a large number of students, it can be harder for students to receive individualized attention and support from faculty members. Additionally, the institute does not have hostels, which can be a significant additional cost for students. As a result, the MBA program at Narsee Monjee may cost around 4-5 lacs extra due to the need to stay outside.

On the other hand, if your career aspirations lie in the marketing field, IMT Ghaziabad is considered to be the best college. IMT Ghaziabad is known for its strong marketing program and its focus on providing students with a comprehensive understanding of the various aspects of marketing, such as consumer behavior, market research, and branding. Additionally, the institute's focus on providing students with practical training through internships, industry projects, and case studies, helps students to develop the skills and knowledge needed to excel in a career in marketing.

XIMB is considered to be good in almost everything. It has a balanced curriculum that covers all the important aspects of management. The faculty is experienced, and the institute is known for its research-oriented approach. Additionally, XIMB has a strong focus on sustainability and responsible management which makes it unique among other MBA colleges.

When considering a post-graduation program, it's important to research the different options available and weigh the pros and cons of each institute. Researching the institute's curriculum, faculty, and alumni network, as well as speaking to current students and alumni can help you to make an informed decision. Additionally, it would be a good idea to seek the opinion of professionals in the field you are interested in, as they can provide valuable insights into the opportunities and challenges of different career paths.
