Which is better IMT Ghaziabad PGDM (marketing) or IMI Delhi PGDM?

SB
Sayan Bagchi Posted On : June 4th, 2022
studied at Institute of Management Technology, Ghaziabad

IMT Ghaziabad is an excellent choice for Marketing. The faculty, resources, facilities, and brand value are better in IMT G. Marketing is the top recruiting sector for the institute. During IMT Ghaziabad placements 2022, Marketing had a whopping 66% placement rate. But there is a trade-off. The batch strength is too high. It’s extremely difficult to get good placement opportunities. 

IMI has a lower batch size. It is a good option for HR and finance specialization. The placement packages offered at IMI and IMT are similar. Both B-Schools have an average CTC of around INR 15 LPA. 

You should choose one of these B-School, based on your choice of specialization.

What is the true average placement package in MDI Gurgaon?

RD
Renato Diago Posted On : February 21st, 2023
MSc Finance, Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (2019)

You should actually stop focusing so much on just average placements. My friend is a pass out of MDI Gurgaon and he says your admission to MDI is more than enough to grant you a high-paying job. So rest assured about that part and focus on what the program is teaching and gain as much knowledge as possible. Some highlights from the glittering life at MDI Gurgaon are

  • You meet students from versatile backgrounds and cultures that add to the overall learning experience.
  • The curriculum is so rigorous that it prepares you for the worse situations 
  • The initial months are pretty strenuous and you might find it hard to get a proper sleep
  • The much-needed exposure to the corporate world is brought in by industry experts who conduct guest lectures that are very enlightening and interactive.
  • Additional exposure is sought through corporate talks, live projects, and tech fests.
  • The curriculum is designed in such a way that every student acquires the analytical skills to question and fulfills all the requirements of the corporate world.
  • The course structure is updated regularly to cope with the ever-changing external requirements
  • The B Schools have an elaborate lush green campus and enjoy easy access through Metro.

All these aspects are as important as placements so considering only average placements is not enough to judge a certain college. Change your primary focus from placements to learning. Being a top 10 school, I am sure MDI Gurgaon won’t disappoint you.

Which university should I prefer for a CS/IT: G.L. Bajaj, Greater Noida or Galgotias University??

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 15th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Both G L Bajaj and Galgotias University are decent options for CS or IT branches. However, you will like to refer to the following points before choosing one

Choose G.L. Bajaj if you are self-motivated and determined to work hard because the institute has a rigid academic environment with many restrictions on attendance and such. Galgotia University on the other hand offers a huge sense of freedom with no restrictions at all. You are free to do whatever you want.

Another major factor to consider is the distance from Greater Noida. G.L. Bajaj is situated in the heart of Greater Noida, whereas Galgotias University is situated almost 15-17 Km from Greater Noida.

Honestly, the faculty pool of both colleges is below average. However, if I were to compare then G L Bajaj still has a handful of experienced professors

Addressing the elephant in the room, it can be said that the placement scenario isn't very different at both the colleges. Galgotias University is newly established but is doing quite well in terms of placements. Here is a comparative analysis of the placement scenario of both the colleges

Particulars

G L Bajaj placements 2022

Galgotias University placements 2022

Highest Package

INR 47 LPA

INR 44 LPA

Top Recruiters

Microsoft, Amazon, Disney Hotstar, Commvault, Dunzo, etc

Cognizant, Wipro, Infosys, DXC, Accenture

The placements are similar with G L Bajaj giving a slight edge to Galgotias University.

I will personally recommend you to opt for a better engineering college than these two institutes.

Choosing between colleges requires evaluating multiple factors aligned with your career goals and personal preferences.

I am a first year student of IIT Kharagpur. I am not in any society. I have a bad CGPA. Is there anything I can do?

NG
Nikhil Goal Posted On : March 22nd, 2023
Mechanical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP)

This is a common problem among freshers at IIT Kharagpur. Their CGPA is initially very low and they fail to become a part of any society. While this certainly is a crucial issue, it can be addressed so you don’t have to worry too much and demotivate yourself. Here are 3 simple ways to overcome this problem

  1. Academics: Before anything comes academics. So the first thing you should do to come out of such an issue is to improve your CGPA. This isn’t that difficult since one can easily score well by just studying 1-2 weeks prior to exams in IITs. Attend all classes and find the subject that is your strength and work on it.
  2. Focus on skills not resume: Shift the focus from building a sound resume to inculcating sound skills. For instance, the dramatics society will add to your speaking skills and confidence. The same can be achieved by just interacting more with people and attending inter-halls. One does not have to build their resume but their skill only. Hosting your department festival will provide you with managerial skills. So work on such activities and don’t run after societies.
  3. Take things lightly: Like Steve Jobs once said, “The best resumes never change the world.”, he literally proved it. Neither did he have a good GPA nor was he part of a good society, yet today he is among the richest and most successful people on Earth. Not being a part of society can be taken positively. One has a lot of free time on his hands and can invest the same in interesting things and learn new things.

So the key is to work on your academics, develop skills and take it easy.

Which is tougher to survive, BCG/McKinsey or IIM Ahmedabad?

RG
Ruchi Garg Posted On : March 22nd, 2022
MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (2020)

Life at BCG/McKinsey is more difficult. During your B-School years, you will have fewer numbers of distractions like social commitments, attending to family, etc. So, you can easily focus on your studies. The perform or perish culture makes life at BCG/McKinley more nerve-wracking. 

These companies pick 2-3% of the top students from the most reputed B-Schools in the country, so competition is way higher.

How much donation is needed to get B.Tech admission in Heritage Institute of Technology through management quota?

SH
Sanjay Haldar Posted On : September 21st, 2021
M.Tech Student at Indian Institute of Technology,Kharagpur (2018)

I have a few friends from Heritage Institute of Technology and here is their insight on the management quota admission at the institute. 

According to them, for IT, the management quota fee goes up to 12 lakhs. If you have a decent academic record you can bargain to bring it down to 10-11 lakhs. For ECE, the fees go up to 16 lakhs. 

However, before taking admission at Heritage through management quota you should know that you will not be missing out much if you choose to go to other colleges affiliated with MAKAUT. You will have almost similar placement opportunities and exposure.

How can I remove a backlog in AKTU? Is there a marked over result if I cleared it?

TB
Tridha Banerjee Posted On : August 24th, 2022
M.Tech computer science from Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University

If you have a backlog in a semester, you need to fill out a carryover form and retake the examination for that subject with your juniors. For odd semester subjects, you need to appear in the next odd semester and for even semester subjects, you need to appear in the next even semester. 

After you clear the backlog, AKTU will issue a new marksheet. The final result will show pass.
