Which course should I choose between IIML ABM, SPJAIN IM and IIM Shillong PGP?

HA
Himank Agarwal Posted On : January 16th, 2023
Knows about CAT and MBA in general. CAT'21 99.6

No matter which B School you choose, PGP is always a better choice than ABM. But there might be a specific reason why you got an ABM offer rather than a PGP. But at IIM Lucknow, students of both programs are offered equal opportunities. These include final placements. summer placements and subsequent PPOs. 

The major drawback of ABM is that you are deprived of the PGP electives and can cover ABM electives only. These electives cover strategy marketing and operations. 

Talking about your offer from SP JAIN for IM, let me tell you that in this regard, IIM Shillong is a much better choice. Its campus in Dubai is a testament to its worth.

How is the PGDM dual country program in the IMT Ghaziabad?

RJ
Ritu Jain Posted On : July 31st, 2021
Studied at Amity University (2019)

You will be surprised to know that PGDM Dual Country (DCP) and regular PGDM courses are similar with the only difference being that PGDM DC would let you have your 1st year in Dubai. My sister recently completed her DC course, and here are some of the similarities and differences between both the courses you need to know before opting for this course:

  • For both DCP and PGDM, the subjects are the same however the books differ by being global and Indian editions respectively.
  • In DCP, you have to take the initiative for projects, competitions, and events individually. Whereas, in PGDM, you will get assisted by committees.
  • The infrastructure of IMT Ghaziabad is brilliant and offers better and unique campus life, however, the fees are also a lot.
  • You will see almost no difference in placements of either course as they are conducted in Ghaziabad in the 2nd year.
  • There is also no difference in the selection process for the interviews.
  • Finding a summer placement while belonging to DCP might be challenging.

All in all, DCP is arguably a good course for business enthusiasts. However, every great thing comes with a cost. This course is a bit expensive. If you feel that placements are the ultimate goal for you, pursuing regular PGDM from IMT Ghaziabad would do. But if you see your scope in global business and budget is not a constraint for you, go for DCP without a second thought.

Which will give me the exposure and on-site working experience: XLRI, HRM, or BM?

AM
Aditya Mishra Posted On : June 9th, 2021
Studied National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra (2019)

One of my friends is studying at XLRI. To her, there is no difference or classification of the amount of international exposure or on-site opportunities, based on specializations. The points below provide a clear picture of the modes of international exposure that students of XLRI receive during their course and afterward.

  • There is a student exchange program in XLRI, which provides foreign learning opportunities to students.
  • The institute has tie-ups with several international business schools like ESADE, Audencia, Darden, and EM Lyon.
  • Almost 20% of students from the batch get the opportunity to spend a semester in one of the foreign institutes. Among them, most of the seats are available to HR and BM students.
  • Students get the benefit of interacting with international students and get used to the global perspective of MBA.
  • In terms of internships and placements, the working experience of candidates totally depends upon the job role offered by the company.
  • In certain cases, companies send their summer interns abroad to their offices.
  • There are HR interns from HUL, who worked in the United Kingdom during their internship period.

Therefore, specialization is not the mode of distinguishing chances for on-site opportunities, and the factor is entirely based on the company’s business requirements.

How is the Post Graduate Program In Management (ePGPx) with IIM Rohtak?

AJ
Arshit Jain Posted On : January 18th, 2023
20+ years of work experience in business school

ePGPX and PGPX are extremely difficult-to-use programs. Most top business schools have experimented with the format, with mixed results. Not everything has gone well for them. The following variables are dependent on the success of the PGPX and ePGPX formats:

  • The minimum number of years in business school is ten. ISB Hyderabad is an exception because they have only focused on the PGPX format of the program since its inception.
  • A very strong alum base thus supports placements because placements in these programs are typically lateral in nature.
  • A very strong faculty base with international or very rich corporate exposure to support the program.
  • A rich and varied corporate immersion program to aid in the successful integration of the program's participants and sponsors (SP JAIN does well here).
  • Then, to top it all off, a robust infrastructure.

For the aforementioned program, you can enroll in any institution that you believe meets the criteria above.

Which is better, SPJIMR PGPFMB or SP Jain GFMB?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : May 18th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

SPJIMR PGPFMB (Post Graduate Programme in Family Managed Business) is a better and clear choice between the two.

This program was launched by SPJIMR in the year 1997, so it is quite a renowned program. This program has a network of 4000+ alumni to take guidance from. This program offers a classroom learning experience, and it last for 18 months. 

The fee for the program is 16 lac for 18 months. While the GFMB program was launched recently by SP Jain Global, so if you have a choice, then I would recommend you to go for PGPFMB.
