How do I get into NMIMS Mumbai?

SG

PGDM Marketing, SVKM'S NMIMS, Navi Mumbai Campus (2021)

NMIMS Mumbai takes admission through NMAT. According to the cutoff trends, the expected cutoff for 2022 is 210+. But it is an oversimplified answer. Being one of the top B-School in the country, around 90000 applicants take NMAT every year. Only around 3000 students are called for the GD/PI round and around 600 students are shortlisted for the final selection. So, only 0.7% of students are selected from the students taking NMAT. In order to get admission, you will need to be among the top 1% of the students. Here are some helpful tips regarding the admission process. 

NMIMS Mumbai Admission 2022: 

  • NMIMS Mumbai allows you to take 3 attempts of NMAT. You should take advantage of all three of these attempts.
  • NMAT doesn’t have negative markings. So, you should try to attempt as many questions as you can.
  • The case discussion round will take place with around 12 other participants. You will be given a one-page case and 5 mins preparation time, before the 15 mins case discussion. Through this round, they want to see how you structure and approach a case. 
  • After the case discussion round there will be a personal interview round with 3 panelists. They usually ask questions based on your CV and current affairs

Work hard to score above 210+ in NMAT and take full advantage of the 3 attempts. With strategic preparation, getting into NMIMS won’t be hard.

NIT Delhi was established in 2010 and is still struggling to make its mark in the education world. As for your question, if NIT Delhi will reach the level of DTU and NSIT soon, I feel that it certainly will. The following points support my stance further

  • Every year, NIT Delhi has at least one student who gets ranked under 100 in GATE
  • A student of NIT Delhi has gone for GSOC more than one time and is now a CERN(European Organisation for Nuclear Research)Geneva.
  • NIT DELHI has highly qualified teachers and one of them worked in NASA, ISRO, and Japanese space organizations and then finally became a professor at NIT Delhi.
  • NIT Delhi's first convocation ceremony’s Guest of Honor was Shri Pranab Mukherjee.
  • The students here actively participate in research work and the Director itself has published 300 research papers in International/National journals. 
  • One of NIT Delhi's alumni has the honor of joining IIM Indore.
  • NIT Delhi placement 2021 recorded an 88% placement percentage and top companies like Adobe, Amadeus, Avalara, and Code Nation visited the campus.
  • NIT Delhi has the second fastest internet in India.

NIT Delhi may be lacking in terms of campus and alumni but it’s nothing that cannot be improved in the years to come!

Is Malla Reddy Engineering College a good school to attend?

UG
Udita Goswami Posted On : April 26th, 2023
B.Tech Master's Programs, Malla Reddy College of Engineering and Technology (2019)

If you are looking for a good career after completing your graduation, it is important to make informed decisions when selecting a college. Malla Reddy Engineering College (MREC) may not be the best choice for you based on personal experiences shared by someone who graduated from there.

Here are some points to consider:

  • The person who wrote this statement shared that they faced challenges finding a job after graduation due to a lack of proper placement assistance. This suggests that the college may not have strong career services or connections with employers, which can make it harder for graduates to secure employment.
  • Additionally, the writer suggests that the faculty at MREC may not be fully engaged with teaching. This can be a red flag when it comes to the quality of education you receive at the college. It may impact your learning experience and ability to succeed in your chosen field.
  • While this is only one person's experience, it is still important to do your own research on any college you are considering. Look up reviews and rankings online, and reach out to current students or alumni to get their perspectives.
  • Consider factors such as location, campus culture, and extracurricular opportunities as well. These can all impact your overall college experience and may play a role in your future career success.

Keep in mind that choosing a college is a personal decision, and what works for one person may not work for another. It's important to weigh all of the factors and make a decision that feels right for you and your goals.

How good is BIT Mesra for an MCA?

AG
Anjul Goswami Posted On : February 19th, 2021
BE from BIT Mesra

My friend is pursuing MCA from BIT Mesra and they find it to be an average course academically but definitely a profitable one in the future because of BIT's brand value. BIT ranks #16th on the NIRF rankings but its infrastructure and quality of faculty members cannot be said to be the best. 

Highlight:

Here are some points to be noted. 

  • BIT has turned a bit mercenary with its high fees of about INR 80,000 and the administration disregards the students.
  • The placement rate is around 90% and that's one of the best things about BIT. Most of the seniors have been placed with names like Amazon, Hero Motocorp, and Axis Bank at an average pay of INR 4.5-6.7 LPA.
  • The mess food is average as well. Almost every year there’s a hike in mess fee.

Here's a table highlighting the MCA program at BIT Mesra. 

Parameters

BIT Mesra MCA Program

Placement Rate

90%

Average Tuition Fee

INR 1.22

Average Salary (INR/LPA)

6.09

Highest Salary(INR/LPA)

Number of Recruiting Companies (2019)

Top Recruiters

BIT is one of the most reputed colleges in Eastern India and its brand value carries a lot of weight. The institute will surely help to kick start your career.

Can I challenge the BHU result?

VK
Vedant Kumar Posted On : November 17th, 2022
IIT BHU

Yes, you may challenge the BHU result. But the chances that you will face such a situation are very low. This is because from the conducting of exams to the results everything is handled by an independent department. This department works under the supervision of the Vice-Chancellor and other experienced officers. So the chances of an error are low.

Still you are always open to challenge the BHU result. The authorities will surely respond for the same.

How is JNU in comparison to Harvard?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 4th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Both institutes are well-reputed and suitable for higher studies. But it is not possible to compare Harvard with JNU, as they both follow completely different structures and curricula. Harvard University stands out in terms of good academics, infrastructure, faculties, placement, and ranking. 

JNU has a pulsating student culture, as they have various clubs and student-led organizations that result in the active participation of students in cultural and political activities. The students became socially oriented, and they should have a significant commitment to our society.  

Both of them are unique and renowned.

What is your review of CGC Jhanjeri?

NS
Neerja Srivastava Posted On : July 29th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, Chandigarh Engineering College (2018)

My cousin studies at CGC Jhanjeri and it's a nice and average place to be. Following are some issues though, which may be burdensome:

  • If you wish to go out during college hours then you will need to get an application signed by the CC and the HOD. The process itself will take up a lot of time.
  • Girls can stay out up to 7 pm in summers and 6 pm in winters and you can step out to roam in the campus by 4:30 and you will have to return in two hours to avoid sending a call home.
  • You should have at least a 75% attendance like most colleges, but it will be evaluated every 15 days. You will have to attend 75% of 15 days to avoid detention during the Monthly Sessional Tests of MSTs.
  • The campus is verdant and hygienic and it has a playground, but it is surrounded by grasslands on all sides up to 5 Kms. It has all the basic amenities like stationery shops, sports ground, pool, games room, etc.
  • Even transportation is an issue and autos and buses are the only way but quite time-consuming.

Hostel, mess food, cleanliness, room Sharing are not any issues at all. You will not have to worry about ragging too. You can go to Chandigarh for shopping after getting your passbook filled and signed by the Warden.

However, you cannot bunk because the campus is small, you can get discovered very easily and may face some good punishment. As for placements, it all depends upon research-based hard work and skills. Major companies do visit for recruitment.

How is the placement for a master's in NICMAR?

DD
Damini Dahiya Posted On : October 7th, 2021
Studied at the National Institute of Construction Management and Research, Pune

Usually, 70% of the students are placed in the first 3 days at NICMAR Pune for ACM (Advance Construction Management) and PEM (Project Engineering Management) programs. The rest of the branch also get job offers eventually but the package depends on the level of expertise and skills you have.

Other campuses at NICMAR are a bit new and they are not as famous as the Pune branch. They don't get that much attention from companies as reputed and well-recognized branches like ACM and PEM at Pune receive.

For the 2020 batch, NICMAR observed an average salary package of 6.75 Lakhs. A total of 99.2% of students got placed with reputed companies including ITC, Goldman Sachs, KPMG, etc.

How do I recover after getting a back in DTU. How does it affect placements, MS and MBA applications?

TS
Tanya Sharma Posted On : July 5th, 2023
Studied at Delhi Technological university

Honestly speaking your grades have nothing to do with your corporate achievements. I have seen students with decent marks getting no recognition from any on-campus recruiter. My friend too got back. He worked hard with 2 different companies for 4 years and decided to go for an MBA. He gave it his all during his pre-MBA period and finally secured admission to a decent B School. 

He soon realized that he was meant for corporate only. It was his personality, communication, and interpersonal skills rather than technical skills that made him successful in the corporate world. 

He stated that he scored average marks but made good industry contacts and worked on his presentation skills. He was able to secure a great job and is doing well currently.

So what matters is the brand you associated yourself with rather than the marks you secured.
