An honest Somaiya review

The course curriculum is very broad covering a wide range of subjects that enhance our analytical as well as logical abilities. We have almost 8 subjects on average in each trimester. During the second year, we will also have to choose a minor specialization along with the major specialization subject. Faculty members are excellent with impeccable academic records and a vast amount of industry exposure and experience. I chose this course because I always wanted to do marketing and thought this is a better way to move forward towards the goal. The batch size is 690 and each class on average has 66 students. Exams are held every 3 months and it is medium difficult to pass exams.

We have a placement committee dedicated to the purpose of placement in our college. The student becomes eligible to sit for an internship by September of the year they join the college. There are a number of companies who visit our campus including the big 4 and other leading brands of the industry. In marketing highest package for an internship is 80K and for finals, it is around 20L. For finance highest package for an internship is 80K and for final placement it is 25L. 98% of students get on-campus placement. My plan after getting this degree is to grab a job from an on-campus placement drive.

We have to pay yearly fees of about 9L. Hence the total fee we had to pay for our course is 18L. Our seniors paid around 16L for their degrees. There was a fee hike of 2L. There is financial assistance provided by our college but I have limited knowledge about it. We get both on-campus internships and placement from our college with an average stipend of about 30K.

Life at the campus is excellent. We have various committees for different domains like marketing, finance, and operations have their own committees and there are many more to ensure the all-round development of the student. We have an annual flagship event called Melange. Our library is well equipped with various software that is needed for a better understanding of the subject. Amenities are excellent in our college with a wide range of sporting facilities.

The admission process starts with filling out the application form for the particular exam that you are planning to give. There are various exams conducted to get admission to a business school like CAT, NMAT, GMAT, or CMAT. Registrations for various exams start around October and application forms can be easily found on google. Anyone who has an undergraduate degree or is in the final year of their undergraduate is eligible to apply for an MBA course. The application fee on average for an exam is 2000 rupees.
