St Joseph's Institute of Management Review

Good discipline, one of the best curriculum. Management should strongly work on placements and increase the student diversity from all region cast and creed rather than primarily focusing on Christian population only.

XAT - scored 90 + percentile (don't remember the exact figure). Took this college because of its reputation in Bangalore city and placement track record. Admission process comprises of application made to the college 1st. After getting a call need to apear for GD and PI. If everything went well you are though.

Curriculum is very dynamic as this college is autonomous and can twist its learnings according to the need of hour. They followed trimester system and each trimester had about 6-7 subjects to clear. Focus on research is also as they encourage the students to think beyond and be a responsible resident first.

No there was no internship provisions. Its a premiere management college and do not have any internship programme available.

The year I passed the placement was 100% and decent in terms of average offerings. Companies which made offers are TCS, WIPRO, AXIS BANK, RELIANCE MONEY, ICICI BANK, HDFC MUTUAL FUND, ACCENTURE, AMBA RESEARCH, METRO CASH AND CARRY, etc. Average salaries offered were in the range of 3L - 5L banck in 2008 where there was a crunch in job market.

Yes we did celebrated lot of events and participated in many management fests across the city. We hosted our own management fest called "verve" which lasted for 3 days every year and which witnessed partipation of about 20 management colleges of town. Cultural activities were throughout.

Being a Jesuit institution, fee structure was pretty reasonable. We can say it was nearly half the other colleges charged of same repute with same facilities. College had scholarship provisions for the one who cannot afford the fee but shown mettle in terms of there graduation scores. I paid about 3 lakhs as fee for 2 year course.

Yes there were scholarships to be won every year basis on the scores one can get and graduation marks. As it was a premiere management institute having visibility and reputation well known all major banks do education loans without a hitch.

Gender ratio is almost 50:50 without any bias. But yes being a Jesuit institution Christian students comprise about 70-80% per batch. Had loads of cultural activities including brain storming, quiz, dancing, singing, debates, presentations. Economic status of students was middle class and upper middle class. Students were mainly Keralites, tamilians and kannad. About 5% are from north India and other states.

Hostel and mess facilities are pretty decent with twin sharing rooms. Advantage of being located in the heart of Bangalore city hostel has pretty big campus without any traffic noise. Rentals are reasonable too. It was about 5K a month that time. PG was i

It was trimester system and we had 6-7 subjects to clear each trimester. It was not at all chilled out as in first 45 days we had mid terms and in next 45 days we had end term of trimester. And in between we had loads of assignments and presentations. So
