The other colleges i applied and got in were Manipal University, Amity University and a few others, but i chose ISME over them due the internal exposure and placements. I also chose this college due to the fact that it is in bangalore which is the industrial hub of the country. During the admission process, the faculty was really helpful and guided me through each and every step of the process.

I applied in Mit-Wpu Pune, Pes University Pune and Nirma University Ahemdabad and I got selected in all these colleges. But I chose this college because the campus is small and beautiful which makes you easily accessible with teachers, Seniors very easily. And the placement ratio of this college is better than the other colleges. The admission process is based on an interview and a college exam. The value added course certificate is provided and they give International trip to Singapore for study purpose and they provide paid internship to Pgdm students in big companies like Bigfour.

I applied to a few other colleges before I decided to join ISME which include Presidency, IFIM and Mount Carmel. I chose ISME over these colleges purely because of the qualifications of the teachers, the batch size and the chance to get international exposure. The admission process of ISME is fairly simple. There's a college exam which is conducted online.

I applied to around 2 colleges in Bangalore and I got offer letter from KJC but there they were offering me BSC life science not BCA , so I chose ISME as a place for my higher studies. I didn't got rejection from colleges I applied to but as I said I didn't got my preference course. That's why I chose BCA here over ISME. The admission process is smooth over here you have to fill application form then basis of your marks you get selected then you have to give interview and if you pass that interview then you get a date to appear here and do the document submission and fee payment.

I chose this college because of it's curriculum which is more practical rather than going to other colleges where only theory is taught , ISME provides us with practical knowledge and also provides various opportunities to explore and find strengths. Comparing to other colleges which are more theoretical and have huge batch size where there is competition for placements. It offers good Return on Investment where students get to attend ITP Industry Trajectory Program that provides with pre placement offers.
