Is it true as many as 100 students go unplaced in IMT Ghaziabad?
IMT Ghaziabad placement reports tell a different story. When the batch was as big as 640, only around 10 people were unplaced. Now with a much smaller batch, I don’t think even these many students will lose chances of placements.
Moreover, even the greatest B Schools have a few students who fail to get placed. These include the top 3 IIMs as well. This is because of the general nature of B Schools and is technically not the institution’s fault. It’s because of the tough competence within a B School.
The top B Schools are a hub of geniuses and if you are anywhere below excellent your journey inside the B School will be tough. The guidelines are tough and the professors only want perfect results. You will be under constant pressure to deliver the best you can and might even crumble if not emotionally strong if you are still unsure, check the LinkedIn profiles of IMT Ghaziabad’s alumni and check where they are working right now.
Which college should I prefer for Finance: XIMB BM, IMT G or IMI Delhi?
In choosing your B-school, the primary factors that you should consider are, the specialization you want to opt for and the ROI you are expecting. In your case, you want to go for Finance. The list of preferred B Schools you mentioned has similar fees and placements so I will be answering solely based on specialization.
Finance: IMI Delhi is the best choice of all the options when it comes to Finance. A premium quality crowd opts for Finance at IMI Delhi and the main reason is the customized MBA program in Finance. Many companies of the Finance sector visit the campus for placements. Finance students also avail the best opportunities and guidance and have a higher level of security than Marketing students.
However, in case you have more than 2-3 years of work experience, IMI Delhi is not a suitable option. Although you may stand out among your batchmates, the companies visiting the campus are not aware of this and offer roles suitable for less experienced students only. So your work experience may not be credited here.
The general preference order should be: IMI D>XIMB>IMT G
How is your life after IMT Ghaziabad?
I know a friend who led a stagnant work life before joining IMT Ghaziabad. After completing his MBA from IMT Ghaziabad, he was offered a much higher salary. His profile did improve but then life challenged him with other problems. He worked as a BA in an American firm. After working for 2 years he finally switched to a Big 4 firm.
IMT Ghaziabad is an old Institute and one’s career prospects depend more on their own motivation and determination here. If you are serious about succeeding you can make the best of the 2 years here and get good roles.
I have seen many students able to get placed because they belonged to the lowest level in class and many same students who were mediocre in studies but managed to grab good roles. So luck is another factor that determines your prospects.
Most of the IMT Ghaziabad alumni I Know are doing great in their careers and belong to the topmost level of their organizations. INT Ghaziabad has impacted the lives of many and its alumni are a living example of the same.
Which one to choose? XIMB vs Sydenham vs IMT Ghaziabad?
XIMB is a better brand among these colleges. It also offers a better average CTC to the students. As per the 2021 placement report, XIMB average package is INR 15.51 LPA.
IMT Ghaziabad is also a reputed B-School and ranks among the top 15 in the country. The average CTC for IMT G is INR 12.4 LPA. If you are interested in a marketing specialization, IMT can be a great option. One of the disadvantages of IMT is its huge batch size of almost around 700.
Sydenham offers a good ROI. As you can complete an MBA within 5 lakhs and the average CTC offered to students is around INR 10 LPA. But it’s difficult to get Sydenham, as the number of seats is limited for students without a Maharashtra domicile.
Between XIMB and IMT, you can choose the former due to the lower batch strength and better average CTC.

IT and Services are doing fairly well and are expected to do so in the future without much change. Analytics is in great demand and will continue to be in demand for at least 5-7 years

The Ghaziabad campus of IMT is still decent, but the other campuses are really in bad condition.
