Should you pick MBA Healthcare Management at KJ Somaiya?

This course suits students who want to work in hospitals, health insurance or pharma, and who want a Mumbai campus.

Pick it if:
You want a healthcare job, not a general one: this course keeps its own small batch and its own healthcare electives.
You are short of the published cutoff: the institute also shortlists on your profile, so a healthcare background can still bring a call.
You want to pay year by year: the programme fee is charged in two parts, one before each year starts.
You are weighing the fee against the pay: the median pay of the last MBA batch is about half the full course fee, as the ROI tile shows.
Skip it if:
You need a cheap room on campus: the hostel costs more than a fifth of the course fee, and triple sharing is the cheapest room.
You will start the form only after the CAT result: the form closes in the same month the scorecard comes out, so a late start can cost you the seat.
You are hoping for an easier cutoff: the published CAT mark has not moved for three years, so plan for the same mark again.
You want many specialisations to choose from: this course is built around healthcare and its electives follow that one field.
Counsellor's advice
If you want a healthcare career and you clear the published mark, send the form in early: the profile route helps most when the institute sees your papers well before the last date.

IIHMR Delhi is the cheapest seat here and gives the best return on the fee. If cost is what decides for you, take it; if you want the higher pay, stay with KJ Somaiya.
In short
SIHS Pune placed its whole batch and costs less, but its average pay is lower than this page's. If your SNAP score is strong and cost matters most, take Pune.
In short
IIHMR Bangalore costs much less but places only three students in four, and it publishes no average pay. If you can pay the fee here, this seat is the safer one.
