See what a student of MBA (Batch-2022) at IMT Nagpur has to say about admission process

In his words: “Eligibility for this course is an undergraduate degree. Additionally one has to appear for an entrance exam like Cat, Xat or Cmat. For CAT and XAT a safe percentile is above 80 to get an interview call. For CMAT one can target above 95 percentile. The application form is available online and one can apply either for all campuses of IMT through a common application form or just IMT Nagpur. The form fee is around 1000 to 2000. The form is opened before CAT exam and generally also re-opened before or after CAT/XAT results. One can expect the form to reopen before CMAT exam as well. The admission process was smooth as it was online when I appeared for it. There was an essay test, a Statement of purpose and a personal interview with 2 panelists. The difficulty level can be increased for the interview. Otherwise they also conduct offline interviews now in various cities so there should not be a problem. One can also choose to visit the campus before taking admission and check first hand”. To know more detailed review, Click Here

Which college is worth joining, SPM PDPU or IMT Nagpur?

Himani Daryani
Advait BettamwarAIIMS Nagpur

If it’s to choose between SPM PDPU and IMT Nagpur, then IMT Nagpur should be an easy pick if you want to pursue a general MBA. If you just want to go to SPM PDPU for a better ROI and do not have any interest in petroleum management, you might be making a big mistake. 

If you have a petroleum engineering background, you could take a chance and get into SPM PDPU. The college has a decent placement and better ROI than IMT Nagpur but the only concern is that it is a very niche course and although we do have big brands and a pool of industry dedicated to this field I would suggest thinking it over and going for SPM PDPU only if you are sure you do not want to switch to any other domain any soon. 

Take a look at the table below for your reference:

What is the better option for an MBA, Symbiosis Nagpur or IMT Nagpur?

Darshan SethiLives in Nagpur

It depends on your personal career goal and aspiration. If you want to take Marketing as a major, then I would suggest preferring IMT Nagpur because IMT as a whole is known for its marketing program. IMT Nagpur has a lower fee in comparison to Symbiosis Nagpur.

SIBM Nagpur has a strong placement record with an average package of INR 19.5 LPA being offered to the top 10% of the batch. The IT/ITES sector emerged as the top sector for placements, with 19.4% of students being placed in this field. The 2022 placement drive included reputed companies such as Genpact, Paytm, Tata AIG, and Reliance, indicating that SIBM Nagpur has established relationships with leading recruiters.

if you are interested in pursuing MBA in IT and analytics, or if you value the reputation of the institution as a whole, then Symbiosis Nagpur may be a better fit for you.

Ultimately, it's important to do your own research and consider all the factors that are important to you, such as program offerings, faculty expertise, location, overall cost, and overall reputation.

Which college is better: IMT Nagpur or Welingkar Mumbai or IMT Hyderabad?

Advait JoshiLives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Among the three colleges, IMT Nagpur should be your choice unless there is any specific need of yours that is being met by any of the other two colleges. IMT Nagpur started in the year 2004 and has a rich legacy in terms of the brand name of IMT Ghaziabad. 

Despite being a relatively new college you could see a few major brand names that visit the college regularly such as Dabur, Bain & Company, Barclays, and Fullerton India. The institute is known for producing great minds in the marketing domain. Now let’s see some numbers to see if the reasoning is sound. Please note that the data may seem at odds with my first statement but average salary doesn't necessarily define the whole story. The batch size of We School is huge which makes Nagpur a better option for you.

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

Akriti Banerjeelives 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.
