Few of my friends attended IIM Ahmedabad. One of them scored 3.56 in his first year. Here are some of the common traits that you will observe in most people who score good CGPA.
Doing these will help you score better.
MBA salary of a B-Schol graduate in India is proportional to their qualification and experience. It also depends on other factors like Almameter of the candidate, MBA specialization, industry, designation, etc. The MBA average salary for the topmost B-School in the country is as follows.
| Name of the institute | MBA salary(in INR) |
| IIM Ahmedabad | 26.13 LPA |
| IIM Bangalore | 33.8 LPA |
| IIM Calcutta | 26.24 LPA |
| IIM Lucknow | 26 LPA |
| FMS Delhi | 32.4 LPA |
| XLRI Jamshedpur | 30.73 LPA |
| MDI Gurgaon | 26.07 LPA |
| SPJIMR Mumbai | 23.6 LPA |
| IIFT Delhi | 25.16 LPA. |
MBA salary depends a lot on specialization as well. Among the specialization, Marketing and Finance offers better placements.
AIIMS Delhi and MAMC Delhi are both the most reputed colleges in terms of academics and placements. AIIMS Delhi offers limited 125 seats annually which makes it really competitive to get admission. Although it is equally competitive to get into MAMC, the college offers a total of 250 seats annually for the MBBS program.
Both institutions have well-experienced faculty, infrastructure and strong curriculum. Admission at AIIMS Delhi is not guaranteed unless one goes through counselling and secures the seat as AIIMS doesn’t offer management seats.
MBBS curriculum is the same in both colleges. Hence, the college tag doesn’t matter however, everything is dependent on your skills, knowledge and learning during your internship posting where you utilize all your theoretical knowledge into practice.
It is advisable for you to continue your education at MAMC without dropping out and wasting one year. Make the most of the resources available and you can always continue your PG studies at AIIMS Delhi by clearing INI CET. Also, AIIMS Delhi conducts INI CET twice a year i.e. January Session and July Session which provides you with an opportunity to appear at your desired time.
MAMC is a good option and well-recognized in the medical fraternity. You won’t regret joining the institute. Also, in medical field, your institute name won’t matter much. If you want to pursue higher studies after graduation, you need to follow the same steps, irrespective of whether you are graduating from AIIMS or MAMC.
After joining MAMC, you also have the option to prepare for AIIMS next year. It will be difficult, but doable.
Harvard University is well-known for providing financial aid to talented students in the form of scholarships. In fact, it runs its own committee to manage and disburse general scholarships as a type of financial aid to students in need. However, it does not offer any merit-based scholarships and no full-ride scholarships. But the university makes sure to take care of 100% of students’ financial needs. You will be surprised to know that almost half of the batch here avails of need-based scholarships or financial aid every year.
Here is a comprehensive table mentioning the list of scholarships offered to Harvard University students and the eligibility criteria for each of them:
|
Scholarship Name |
Eligibility |
|
Boustany MBA Harvard scholarship |
|
|
Horace W. Goldsmith Fellowship |
|
|
The Robert S Kaplan Life Sciences Fellowship |
|
|
Need-Based Fellowships |
|
Now the question arises, how to get these scholarships. Students can opt for scholarships offered both by external as well as in-house sources. The university filters students for scholarships by understanding the background and economic position of the students. Only then does it grant financial aid, to let them complete their UG and PG education easily.
As a B-School, KJ Somaiya has certain factors which are advantageous, such as location, ROI, alumni base. Since Mumbai is the corporate hub of India, the college easily attracts many companies. SIMSR has a huge alumni base with people working at imminent positions in the corporate world.
However, it doesn’t come under the top B-Schools in India. SIMSR brand doesn’t have much recognition. Although it attracts many companies, the placement average isn’t at the same level as top B-Schools. KJ Somaiya placements 2022 had an average CTC of INR 10.95 LPA.

So yes, NMIMS average package is really above INR 16 LPA!
According to the student’s reviews online, The average CTC (domestic) is INR 18.33 LPA. All the B-Schools of the country publish their placement reports based on CTC or cost to company numbers.
There is a huge difference between CTC and in-hand salary. So if your question was related to 16 lakhs CTC then it could be a possibility but if your question was related to 16 lakhs in hand salary then it might vary.
The average salary package may also vary depending on the company and your overall academic performance. Some companies offer students a 18-20 LPA salary package but they also have better grades. Whereas some Mass recruiting companies like TCS often give lots of job offers but with a lesser salary package.
The package depends on whether you are joining which department of Animation or VFX.
