Which course is better in Goa institute of management?
Goa Institute of Management has 2 regular programs
- PGDM
- PGDM HCM
PGDM: PGDM is its flagship course and is very successful. Its 100% placement percentage is a testament to that. The average salary has been increasing every year and this year stands at INR 12.07 LPA. The companies visiting the campus for recruitment have been loyal by visiting every year. The regular PGDM has much more fees in comparison to PGDM HCM and thus a lower ROI. Also, admission to PGDM is tough owing to tough competition.
PGDM HCM: This program was launched just a few years ago and had few seats. It too boasts of a 100% placement percentage yet its average package at INR 10.40 LPA is lower than PGDM. But some companies come especially for HCM students. The PGDM HCM has fees lower than PGDM and thus offers a higher ROI than regular PGDM. Due to a lack of awareness, the competition is also less tough than PGDM.
Talking about the delivery of the curriculum, the faculty, pedagogy, infrastructure, and facilities are all the same. The students of both programs join together during events. So eventually it’s up to you to decide which course to take.

How good is the NMIMS Mumbai BBA programme? How are the placements, the summer internship for this year, and recognition by top IIMs?
The Bachelor of Business Administration program at NMIMS is pretty good and ranks 3 across the country. My brother completed his BBA from NMIMS Mumbai in 2016 and during his time the average package was INR 3 LPA. Currently, the median salary is INR 4.8 LPA. The companies that visit the campus for BBA placements are

You will have a lot of opportunities and the crowd is also talented in almost everything. Multiple internships offered mainly from Intershala are offered to students at different times. The timings can vary from division to division and depend on your semester as well.
Which is better: an MBA from NMIMS Mumbai or a job through SSC CGL?
Comparing the two, an MBA from NMIMS and a job through SSC CGL are highly illogical. The prospects and magnitude of both career inclinations are totally different. Let’s conduct a general comparison on the basis of some common aspects
- An MBA from NMIMS needs a lot of investment while a job through SSC CGL does not. Considering the probability of getting a good job after my MBA, I think going with SSC CGL is a safer option.
- Your social status will be much better in the case of SSC CGL. You might face some drawbacks in your work life but in your social circle, you will be considered a man of great importance. Your family will be benefiting from your social status through good education. The salary is average, not less given the better social status you will be enjoying in contrast to working as an MBA professional in the corporate world.
- Analyze your social and personal responsibilities as an MBA professional as well as CGL. You might get a picture of what you are aiming for. Choosing an MBA is not worth it unless it's a firm top 5 IIM or you are looking for a career abroad.
So MBA will guarantee you a lot but money which does matter to an extent but not when compared to the reputation you will gain as an SSC officer. MBA requires a lot more than you think. It may groom you but not ensure a better social structure like CGL.
