PS
Pradeep Saini Posted On : July 5th, 2021
PGDM from Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management, New Delhi (2018)

Among the above two institutes, PGDM in International Business at FORE is definitely a better option, considering the placement statistics of recent years. The points below give a brief overview of the key highlights of the FORE School of Management, along with its major advantages over LBSIM.

  • FORE School of Management offered an average package of 10.7 LPA in PGDM IB. On the other hand, the average package in PGDM at LBSIM is 8.5 LPA, which is quite lesser than that of FORE.
  • The International Business stream in PGDM at FORE has an outstanding syllabus, in which they teach quite a number of subjects different from the conventional core subjects.
  • The placement process of both FORE and LBSIM is almost the same.
  • Most companies allow only those students in their placement drives that have at least one of the specializations mentioned in their required profile. For example, a marketing company will allow only those students who have marketing as one of their specializations.
  • For students of the 2018-20 batch in FORE, the first specialization will be International Business. You have the liberty to choose any one of marketing, finance, strategy, IT, etc as your other specializations.

Therefore, the FORE School of Business offers an excellent PGDM International Business program, which has decent placement and ample opportunities for students.

PGDM in Marketing & Information Technology, FORE School of Management

Yes, FORE School of Management usually reopens registration after CAT results are declared. In fact, many tier 2 B-Schools do the same after CAT results are announced to extend another chance to the students aspiring to pursue MBA. 

However, keep in mind that the decision of reopening the application process lies entirely with the institute.

Should a Delhi resident opt for TAPMI over FORE School of Management?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : May 17th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

If you are a Delhi resident and don't want to go to Manipal, then you can opt for FORE, as both the institute are almost similar. TAPMI offers slightly better placements, but you can always get good placements from FORE if you work hard. 

Both institute has similar fee structure as well, and you would spend a little extra in hostels and mess if you opt for TAPMI you can save if you stay at your home in Delhi.

Which one should I choose for PGDM between GLIM, GIM, FORE, LIBA, NIBM, IFMR and IIFM, Bhopal? And why? I already have calls from GLIM, GIM, FORE and accepting calls from others also.

NP
Nivedita Paul Posted On : March 16th, 2022

GLIM, GIM, FORE, and LIBA offer general MBAs. So, you can your preferred specialization during your second year. This will give you a lot of freedom in terms of choosing your industry and job profile. All of these are good options. FORE has a great industry interface. Located in Delhi/NCR, it also enjoys a locational advantage. 

Your preference order for these four B-School should be - FORE=GIM>GLIM>LIBA. 

NIBM is a sectoral B-School, so choose it only if you are interested in joining the banking sector. Though IIFM isn’t a sectoral B-School, it is only known for its finance specialization. It is also rated below FORE, GIM, GLIM, and LIBA.

Which is better for PGDM MBA FORE OR IMT-DCP Ghaziabad OR TAPMI?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : May 27th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

When it comes to PGDM, IMT is preferable to both colleges. DCP, however, might not be the best option because of its expensive price and unpredictable placements. In terms of the caliber of placements and courses, I believe FORE and TAPMI are pretty comparable. Compared to FORE, TAPMI has a locational disadvantage but has a lesser fee compared to FORE so TAPMI offers a better ROI.
