Coming to the second part of your question, a package of 15 LPA and above is certain for those who have scored the highest percentile only. It’s not possible for B Schools to offer package roles to the entire batch to maintain a high average figure. So before joining a college for MBA you should analyze whether the package you will get will compensate for the hefty fees you pay.
IMT Ghaziabad DCP program is one of the best and most coveted among its students. My brother is currently a first-year student of the same and has a lot to say about the course through his experience. He joined the program only after in-depth research. What attracted him the most was the location of the program, Dubai, which is the hub of globalization. Some major highlights of the course are
My brother's experience was amazing and he recommends it to anyone who wants to explore outside the box.
The campus life at IMT Ghaziabad is very stressful and fast-paced. You need to prepare for this well beforehand so that you don’t end up in a slump. I have listed a few skills you can adopt to make your best time in IMT Ghaziabad.
Apart from acquiring the above skills, take extra care of your physical and mental health, get lots of sleep and spend time with your family
IMT Ghaziabad’s campus life is quite a rigorous and dynamic one. You enter the college all naive and unaware and leave the college as one of the most confident and informed people. They nourish you and make you industry ready.
To get a clearer experience of life at IMT Ghaziabad, I have explained in detail the term-wise experience of my cousin who recently passed out of this college.
First term: Right when you join the college, you will have to sit for interviews to get into various companies, attend classes, attend Personality Development Programs, and do various other assignments. All this will make you extremely busy during the initial months. The term ends with Final Exams which are the most difficult. You can get help from committees that arrange examination sessions.
Second Term: The rigor only increases in the second term. Apart from the regular classes and assignments you now have to get involved in various events held by the committees. You will have to contribute by getting sponsorship for the committee, designing the concept of the event, marketing the event, getting participation, etc. Once the event has been successfully wound up, you can enjoy the IMT Committee parties which are real stress boosters. This term too ends with Final Exams which are the climax of stress and hard work.
Third Term: While many may think that after 2 hectic terms, you will now get accustomed to the rigorous, and the third term may seem a bit less stressful, you are wrong. This term is the most stressful period of the first term owing to the Summer Placements. You have to constantly prepare for placements and the campus is unusually busy and everyone is working hard. During the placement week, the companies visit, and most of the students who get placed are relaxed. Yet the ones who fail to get placed keep preparing as some companies visit after the placement week also. This term also witnessed another round of commuter events which because of clashing with placements are a real challenge. Students somehow manage both together. This term is famous for the great entertainment Management event Passion organized by SAWC and the Cultural Committee. The event ends with a freshers' party and the term ends with Final exams yet again.
Fourth Term: This is the most relaxing term as you are now over with the placements and events. The electives are also fewer and everything sails smoothly. You can relax and prepare well for your internship.
This is how a typical year passes at IMT Ghaziabad.
Pondering over your past academics will do you no good. It’s not that you can change your marks by checking the minimum marks required. The best way is to focus on preparing your CAT as it’s the controllable way you can get shortlisted. You cannot change what has happened and wasting your time worrying about those marks will only hinder your preparation and performance in CAT.
You can do that once you have performed excellently in CAT and the score is out.
Most importantly, you are not aiming for IIM A B, or C. It’s just INT Ghaziabad we are talking about. So its cutoff should not be your only goal. Aiming a little higher for the CAT exam is one of the most crucial entrance exams that can make or break your career.
IMT Ghaziabad offers a variety of courses that cater to various specializations. These courses have been listed and explained in their order of preference
The courses have been arranged preference-wise so will make it easy for you to choose one.

IMT Ghaziabad placement reports tell a different story. When the batch was as big as 640, only around 10 people were unplaced. Now with a much smaller batch, I don’t think even these many students will lose chances of placements.
Moreover, even the greatest B Schools have a few students who fail to get placed. These include the top 3 IIMs as well. This is because of the general nature of B Schools and is technically not the institution’s fault. It’s because of the tough competence within a B School.
The top B Schools are a hub of geniuses and if you are anywhere below excellent your journey inside the B School will be tough. The guidelines are tough and the professors only want perfect results. You will be under constant pressure to deliver the best you can and might even crumble if not emotionally strong if you are still unsure, check the LinkedIn profiles of IMT Ghaziabad’s alumni and check where they are working right now.
