Wondering which Bskools to apply in PUNE - 12-12-2006, 12:19 PM

Hi,

I am expecting to get around a score of 93-95 in CAT. I have done my graduation in engineering (IT). I am very keen to come into financial sector like banking and insurance. So i am applying for both NIBM and NIA SOM which are pune based colleges.

So what are my chances of getting through in these colleges, considering that i do not have any work experience.

One more question that is it good to do MBA from city like Pune or bangalore compaired to cities like mumbai and delhi where so many financial sector companies have there corporate offices.

Waiting for good advice

Well Sarika,

It is advisable to evaluate the bschool using different parameters before joining it and LOCATION is one of the parameters. Of course its not the only and exhaustive parameter.

Mumbai, Delhi etc. has its own location advantage considering its proximity to the recruiters but the image of a bschool should be looked at in totality.

We may be able to help you out in a better way if you furnish more details as which all bschool you applied to!

Well,

Considering the present speculations of different coaching institutes, this score would fetch you somewhere around 95+ %ile.

IMI cut off is expected to be around 95 %ile this year and hence it shouldn't be a problem. IMT had kept its cut off 95%ile last year and if it goes up, your case may be a border line case.

Nirma and TAPMI should be a safe bet with this score i guess.

Hello,

well your concern seems warranted but let me assure you that the good colleges ensure enough brand value to attract the best companies across the country. Whats importnat is that the city you study your MBA in be connected by AIR cause thats what all corporates will want.
THe cities you mentioned dont seem to have any problem at all on that front.

As for getting through in either of those colleges I guess me not the right puy

Re: Wondering which Bskools to apply visit this thread!!! - 13-12-2006, 10:54 AM

First of all Thanks Pranav and EuPhOrIa for your reply. Till now I have applied only in NIBM Pune, FORE Delhi and NIA SOM Pune. As of now last date to apply to many colleges have already finished and only few colleges like somaya, welingkar are still there.

So considering the fact that i have done engineering in IT from NIT what are my chances of getting through any of these three colleges?

I donot have any work experience but I have a good academic record through out my career. I have got 87% in class 10th and 91% in class 12th.

I am also trying my luck in few colleges in SNAP but as of now I am very keen on joining either NIA SOM or NIBM because of my interest in finance.

So again waiting for good suggestions

Thanks
