Questions Asked On GLBIMR, Greater Noida

It is important to think before applying to institutes like these as it has been evident by many students like colleges such as GL Bajaj in Greater Noida promises about various facilities, infrastructure and placements which they ultimately fail to provide. It has also been seen that Tier1 colleges fail to get all of their students placed in campus placement drives.

You can take another year for the preparation if they wish in order to get better colleges. and give another trial at CAT.

On the other hand, if you still want to choose between the two and do not want to prepare for another year, then you can go for IBMR in Gurgaon due to the following reasons:

• The institute has a tie up with various Institutes to provide excellent education to the students of IBMR.
• The fee structure is also reasonable in comparison with other institutions.
• The Placement records are also good in IBMR.

In a city like Gurgaon, you will be able to find off campus placement if you don’t like or don’t receive the on campus placements; there are other scopes too.

A few of my friends graduated from Sharda University and G. L. Bajaj. Here is some information about these universities that might help you know about them a bit better. Both the colleges are good but there are some pros and cons.

• If you are looking for a life similar to school-life where you have to wear uniforms and attend classes till 5 'O'clock then you can choose G.L Bajaj.
• The curriculum is strict at GL Bajaj whereas, in Sharda University, the lifestyle is more lenient. 
• At Sharda more opportunities are provided to those who have the potential or interest. A number of events and extracurricular activities are organized. The best faculties from IIT’s and other fields. 

It is suggested that you go for Sharda University as it is much better than G. L. Bajaj. However, ultimately it is your decision. .
