JIPMAT is a mcq based entrance test with 100 questions from 3 subjects, Verbal Ability, Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning and Quantitative Ability. The difficulty is moderate and sums up to a reliable test overall. You are selected based on your composite score of 3 subjects if you qualify for cutoffs of each subject individually. There is no further PI or GD rounds after test and you get offer letter if you qualify for the same. The admission process is quite smooth and you won't face much dificulty.

Sapna Malik

By establishing a 2-year full-time MBA program in Hospital and Healthcare Management, IIM Bodh Gaya has taken action to meet the growing demand for experts in the healthcare industry.

How do I get a package of 30 lakhs in the field of marketing, post MBA from IIMA/B/C, FMS, MDI, SPJIMR, and IIFT?

Saransh ShahMBA Finance, S. P. Jain Institute of Management and Research (2020)

While many may shed their philosophies on how getting a high package should not be your ultimate goal and stuff, I am here with a different opinion. When you are investing a huge amount of money it is only right to expect a greater monetary benefit and a better lifestyle. So I have mentioned some techniques that will help you land a package of 30 LPA specifically in the field of marketing post-MBA from IIM ABC, FMS, MDI, SPJIMR, and IIFT.

  • The first thing you need to do is lower your expectations as no marketing placements offer a package higher than 25 LPA. These highest offers are made by top firms like Reckitt Benckiser, HUL, P&G, and Asian Paints.
  • You need to figure out what you really are after, a good marketing role or a high-paying job. If you are after the latter I suggest you go for big consulting firms like Mc Kinsey, BCG, or investment banks that offer 30+ LPA.
  • But if it is the marketing role you are after, then make sure your resume reflects your marketing enthusiasm. This will further increase your chances of selection.
  • Performing well in the competitions conducted by your desired company is another way to get a high-paying job. 
  • If the Final Placements are your last resort then make sure you have a stable and excellent CGPA. Many companies consider this factor while shortlisting.

These points will help you get your dream job but cannot necessarily guarantee it. It all ultimately depends on your efforts and obviously your luck.

Are the salary packages for IIMs higher than those from JBIMS?

Vivek RajMMS Operations Management, Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (2018)

IIMs can be broadly categorized into two categories; the first comprising IIM ABC and the second comprising IIM KIL. The total fees will be around 16-18 Lakhs or a few lakhs more for these IIMs. As far as the average package is concerned for IIM ABC, it is around 19-20 Lakhs while for IIM KIL it is merely 2 lakhs less. The highest CTC is around 60-70 (International) for these IIMs.

Coming to JBIMS, we get to witness a much higher ROI. This is because the average package is almost similar to these IIMs while the fees are much less. Also, it is a Mecca for Finance enthusiasts. JBIMS has many notable alumni that carry its brand name proudly. Some of them include

  • Vinita Bali, Managing Director of Britannia
  • Chanda Kochhar, Managing Director & CEO, ICICI Bank, India
  • Nitin Paranjpe, CEO and Managing Director, Hindustan Unilever Ltd

Which is better, IIM Bodh Gaya or SIBM Bangalore?

Anjali
Paridhi SharmaBcom Hons at University of Delhi (2018–present)

The brand of IIM is well-respected and will continue to hold weight in the future. IIM Bodhgaya is a relatively new institute and has the potential to grow further in the coming years. While SIBM Bangalore may have slightly better placement opportunities, graduating from IIM Bodhgaya will be a great achievement and you will be proud to say that you have studied at an IIM.

It is important to note that both institutions have a strong culture of study and competition among students. However, if you have the determination and belief that you can score higher on the CAT exam and have strong academics, it may be worth considering giving it another shot for the chance to attend a better institute. It's important to weigh all the options and consider the long-term benefits before making a decision. Ultimately, the choice is yours and it's important to choose the institution that aligns with your career goals and aspirations.

Is it preferable and possible to do a CFA along with an MBA in Finance if I take admission in IIM Bodh Gaya?

Pragya TripathiMBA in Management, Indian Institute of Management Bodh Gaya (Graduated 2022)

It is possible to pursue the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) certification in conjunction with an MBA degree from IIM Bodh Gaya, as well as other certifications such as Financial Risk Manager (FRM), Financial Modeling and Valuation Analyst (FMVA), Certified Business Continuity Analyst (CBCA), Certified Market Surveillance Analyst (CMSA), National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM), and National Stock Exchange's Certification in Financial Markets (NCFM).

Whether or not it is preferable to pursue the CFA certification alongside an MBA in Finance is a matter of personal preference. Like other IIMs, IIM Bodh Gaya has a rigorous curriculum and pedagogy. If you are able to make time outside of committee and club activities and studies and are willing to sacrifice some sleep, pursuing these certifications can greatly enhance your resume and increase your marketability in the job market. However, it is also a high-risk, high-reward decision. Even if you do not pursue these certifications, IIM Bodh Gaya will still provide you with attractive job offers if you put in the effort.

Sabeer Chalana
Hardik NagarStudied at the Indian Institute of Management Bodh Gaya (2021)

Despite the relatively recent establishment of IIM Bodh Gaya, the hostel life at the institution has thrived in terms of culture, fun, facilities, quality, and competitiveness.

During the orientation period, current students will assist you in adjusting to the challenging environment of Bihar. You will find yourself building a large network of connections in a short period of time.

Once the academic schedule is complete and you return to your new home, exciting activities await you. You can choose from a variety of activities, including sports like basketball, volleyball, cricket, football, badminton, and running, in the various courts and stadiums within the temporary campus. If you prefer indoor activities, there are options such as table tennis and carrom, or you can watch TV in the common room. For those interested in public speaking, there are opportunities to debate, discuss and engage in friendly competitions. The drama club, as well as singing, dancing, comedy, art, and reading clubs, are also available. For those who enjoy cooking, there is a fully equipped kitchen to make your favorite meals. And if you prefer to just eat, the canteen is open 24/7 to satisfy your cravings.

Competitions and events are a regular feature of life at IIM, and you will sense the competitive atmosphere among your peers. However, the more you help others, the more help you will receive, which can help you grow your networks, strengthen friendships, and potentially win competitions. With the diverse cultures represented at IIM, there are many major festivals celebrated throughout the year, which provide the opportunity to experience and learn about different traditions and customs. As a growing institution, you will also have the opportunity to shape the culture of the institution.

In summary, hostel life at an IIM is challenging, yet exciting and fun, hectic but rewarding, and demanding but skill-building. It is a unique and fantastic experience.

Is it possible to get an education loan before admission in IIM Bodh Gaya? Is a co-borrower necessary as my parents income is 1 lakhs per year?

Ariz Raza
Rahul ChaurasiaLives in Gaya, Bihar, India

Getting educational loans for admission at an IIM is fairly easy due to their high credibility. You should present the required documents like a copy of your admission offer letter along with the receipt of the amount paid by you as the offer acceptance fee to the bank and they will start your loan process. Also, this amount will be reimbursed by the bank if you want it to be included in your loan amount.

As far as co-browser is concerned, it’s completely unnecessary as you don’t need to have your family member as your co-browser. Also there isn’t need of any collateral as well and your family’s income has no relation with the loan whatsoever.

The best part of getting an education loan for joining any IIM is that you don’t have to contact the banks. They themselves will contact you as they know their investment will be worth the return. The entire procedure is unexpectedly smooth. Just visit your nearest branch to get your documents verified and you can proceed with the rest of the process online.
