Admission:

60% above in graduation and you are eligible for the course. For MBA and MBA-IB program CAT entrance marks are taken into account. A collective cut off is generally taken rather than section cut off. After clearing the basic cut off students are called for GD-PI(offline). For any such admission related dates regularly check the official website of BHU. The admission process was very smooth, the students themselves manage the whole process, that is something which distinguishes BHU from other college. This showcases a better practical use of mangement skills and also you can ask the student studying there for any query related to the course. Without a doubt BHU does gives a superb ROI.

Admission:

The admission process is not tough though. You have to appear for CAT, the average cutoff is 85 percentile but it goes down later. After CAT you have to fill out BHU's separate admission form. After that personal interviews and Group discussions will be conducted. Final merit will be made based on academics + CAT + GD/PI.

Admission:

Admission was through CAT score, followed by Group Discussions(GD) and Personal Interview (PI). The total aggregate of CAT score, GD, and PI was considered and the merit list was made for the final admission. In the year 2020, 85+ percentile was the cutoff for final admission in the general category, and for OBC it was 80 percentile. I was offered admission to some of the Baby IIMs also. But I chose BHU because of the ROI ( Return on Investment) it gives. IM-BHU has very less fees as compared to other colleges and also offers very good placements. That's why it has a tough competition. BHU is also the Rank 3 University all over India. It gives good exposure.

The college comes under the widely renowned Banaras Hindu University, it holds a great historical as well as a prestigious presence in our country, this was one of the very first reasons for applying to this institution. There are generally several quotas in the admission procedure- like General, OBC, SC/ST, EWS, and others. The admission criteria for the program is quite simple, you just have to attain a minimum of 55% marks in your graduation along with a good CAT score for applying here. The admission process includes filling the form which is uploaded on the Banaras Hindu University portal after the CAT exams. After filling the form with all the valid and relevant information you are called for the Group Discussion and Personal Interview round.

With 86 percentile CAT, should I join PUMBA Pune, FMS BHU or NIT Trichy if I convert them? Is it wise to take admission in these colleges due to low fees?

Shankar PandeyB.Tech Production and Industrial Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli (2020)

FMS BHU is the best among all of these. There is no comparison with any other colleges.

However, if we look at NIT Trichy vs PUMBA, NIT Trichy seems to be a little better than PUMBA in terms of placements and their fee structure is almost the same.
