How good is NIMS University?
Other than some of the medical courses, the other programs offered by NIMS University Jaipur aren’t good. The quality of education isn’t good. Proper lectures aren’t scheduled regularly. The faculties usually focus on completing the syllabus fast. The teaching approach is outdated. There is less focus on practicals.
I got a very low percentile in the CAT exam but still I got a call from IIM Jammu. Is it a good opportunity or a waste of time?
Getting a call from any IIM is never a waste of time. Once you're invited, don't worry about whether you'll get in or not, just do your best. Focus on preparing for the interview. If you're accepted, look into the fees and the job opportunities (IIM Jammu Highest & Average Package for batch 2023 was recorded at INR 64 LPA and INR 16.50 LPA respectively). If you're happy with what you find, it's a good chance. If not, it's not worth your time.
However, the decision is up to you. IIM Jammu is one of the new IIM but if you do well there, you could land a High-paying Job, possibly over 15-20 LPA, and save a year. On the other hand, if you think you can do even better in the CAT exam next year, aim for the older IIMs.

Life is the same, and what you typically learn academically will hardly be used in your day-to-day life and profession over a 30-year career. What will be useful are your contacts, alumni network, lifelong friends, relationships with visiting faculty (a specialty of JBIMS), and finally the Mumbai spirit, which is unlike most other cities.
JBIMS has a distinct advantage in that it is located in the financial capital of Mumbai, with the majority of students coming from Mumbai and more visiting faculty than permanent faculty. This adds a lot of practical perspectives, which will help in life more than book knowledge.
