How good is Ashoka Business School Hyderabad compared to IBS Hyderabad for an MBA?

NM
Nitin Menon Posted On : February 15th, 2023
PGPM(MBA) in Marketing, Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts of India University (ICFAI)

First of all IBS Hyderabad is not a recognized college. Back in 2007-2009 students went against the college’s false promises and threw stones to protest. The college was in full bloom till 2006. But ever since then the quality of education and its brand value has been deteriorating. Some major reasons for its decline in value are

  • Massive intake i.e., an increase in the batch size has affected the quality of education proportionally.
  • The high fees have made ISB a money-making Institute rather than an educational institution.

It’s because of such reasons that it has lost its original reputation and is famous for all the wrong reasons. So I don’t think it’s very wise to risk your career by making such a choice.

For an MBA PGDM, which is better IMT Ghaziabad or IIM Rohtak?

AS
Arjun Singhaniya Posted On : January 18th, 2023
PGDM in Finance, Institute of Management Technology, Ghaziabad (Graduated 2019)

When comparing IIM Rohtak to IMT Ghaziabad, the preference varies from person to person. IIM Rohtak is unable to match IMT G's history, its extensive network of corporate connections, and its superior learning environment and segment of the population.

IIM Rohtak is unquestionably a good choice, and it will get you the IIM name, which IMT Ghaziabad lacks. If you are certain that you want to pursue marketing, then disregard IIM Rohtak. When it comes to marketing, IMT G easily outperforms it.

There isn't much of a difference between IIM Rohtak and IMT Ghaziabad, so your decision between them ultimately depends on how you want to shape yourself if your options aren't limited to marketing or if you haven't decided what you'll pursue and explore once you enroll in the B-school. If either of these situations applies to you, then you must make a personal decision.

If you want to study marketing, IMT Ghaziabad is the place to be. If you decide on anything other than marketing, you will end up getting hired for the same corporate positions. IMT G, as a brand, currently offers better prospects than IIM Rohtak and has much more to offer.

Which course is better IIM Shillong PGPEx or IIMs ePGP?

YC
Yash Chandra Posted On : January 23rd, 2023
MBA from Indian Institutes of Management (Graduated 2022)

When considering a business school program, especially a one-year program, it is important to consider the cohort of the peer group and the experiences they bring to the table. While the faculty and brand of the school are important factors, the main source of knowledge in these courses often comes from peer group interaction through group discussions, projects, and sharing of experiences. 

Additionally, students may also be responsible for seeking out opportunities for placements, so it is important to research and connect with seniors and peers in the industry to get a sense of what the program has to offer. It is not advisable to rely solely on rankings or advertisements when making a decision, as there may be more to consider than what is immediately apparent. It is important to do thorough research and dig deep before committing to a program.

Which one should I join NITIE PGDIM or IIM Shillong?

HH
Harshit Hooda Posted On : January 23rd, 2023
Former Student at Indian Institute of Management Sirmaur (2019–2021)

There are several factors to consider when deciding between NITIE and IIM Shillong. NITIE, established in 1963, has a larger pool of alumni and may offer networking opportunities that could be beneficial in the long run. It is also known as a mecca for operations, with all major firms hiring for operational roles. NITIE is located in Mumbai, which may be seen as a location advantage. On the other hand, IIM Shillong was established more recently in 2008 and has a smaller batch size. Its fees are also lower, at around 20 lakhs.

While it may not have the same reputation for PGDIM or operations as NITIE, top consulting firms have started to hire from IIM Shillong, offering options from a variety of domains. One potential advantage of IIM Shillong is its IIM tag, which may be attractive to some candidates. However, its location in Shillong may be seen as a disadvantage. Ultimately, candidates must weigh these factors carefully to make the best decision for their individual needs and goals.

Should I go for an MBA from IIM Visakhapatnam or try next year?

AB
Anuj Bhawsar Posted On : January 24th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (Graduated 2020)

IIM Visakhapatnam is one of the newest IIMs and lacks credibility to a great extent. The State and Central governments might be trying to make this a good institution but I don’t think it’s capable of offering a plethora of opportunities in terms of placements, exposure, peer learning, or faculty. I will suggest you go for a different IIM if you have any other option up to your sleeve. Even a new IIM that has just been established for a year or two is better. Make sure its infrastructure, placements, and faculty are at par with the IIM standards. It’s too early to claim with surety of IIM Visakhapatnam’s worth. Moreover, if you were able to crack CAT this year, it’s better you try again next year with a bit more determination and target a better B School.

Which course is better for a B.Tech fresher in mechanical: PGDIE or PGDIM at NITIE?

RK
Rubani Kaur Posted On : August 16th, 2021
MBA from National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2018)

Both PGDIE and PGDIM are very good courses for a mechanical engineer, but the syllabus for both these courses is different. 

PGDIE

  1. It is a flagship course of NITIE which is more focused on industrial engineering. To get admission to this course, you have to clear the GATE exam.
  2. As a fresher, you can make up with most of the students in your branch but you might not be able to contribute as much as the students who have significant experience, especially in class discussions and group activities. 
  3. But there won't be many problems during placements as there are many companies who are looking for fresh candidates to join their team, especially in the FMCG sector. 

PGDIM

  1. It is a management course that is equivalent to an MBA course, and to get admission in this course, you have to clear the CAT exam.
  2. As a fresher, if you take admission in this course, you would probably be in the minority as most of the students would have some kind of work experience. 
  3. There will be certain projects which would need some kind of experience and here your other batch mates can be a step ahead of you. 
  4. You will have to do a lot of reading and communicating with all your batch mates, professors to learn how a business works. 

Both the courses are very different from each other and now it depends on you in which field you are interested in. If you want to pursue a management course then go for PGDIM or if you want to be in the field of engineering, then you can choose PGDIE.
