1) how old are these courses(individually)?
2) wat kind of chances do i have with this score?
3) as far as i know the core course has a split up as: 150-written marks; 10-GD; 10-PI; 10-WrkEx. is there a going to be a similar criteria for sectoral as well?
4) i will have 8 months of wrk-ex by march with 6 months of academic industrial training in the same Co. (will it be counted as 6+8?) is this kind of wrk ex relevent?
5) what is the scope of services mgmt - does it include IT mgmt as well (the website says it is about healthcare, tourism, hospitality, ...!)?

please excuse me if theses queries have already been asked as i have not been following this thread religiously, and in such a case please re-direct me to the appropriate post no.

ATB to all

PS: not just seniors but any1 who can shed light on these doubts is most welcome to do so.

hello seniors.................?????

[prolinjb]

hello,

i m not a seniors but will try answer some of ur questions.....
1.The corses are at the most 2 years old.....I am interested in acturry so i know tht its 2 years old.....that is its 1st palcements are already done....banking i guess but i m not sure in one year old....
2.i can not comment on chances....but your best bet (like mine) is to assume that the popele who are ahead of u in ranking have got better calls or are freshers.....u shld have littile advantage caz of ur 8 months of experience....
3.the marks split is a contravercial issue....i dont think that there can be such low weightage for GD & PI.....and dont worry about the split.....just prepare well for the GD /PI.....
4.6 months of academic industrial training i dont think will be counted.....i have read somewhere that its the after graduation work-ex that is counted....also in many of the B-school they even dont consider the articleship of CA/CS as work ex....
5.to see the syllabus of service management....have a look at the prospectus.....u will come to know the subjects....hers is the link for service management cirriculam......NMIMS - Full Time MBA (Services Management) - Curriculum

Quoting from NMIMS Site

"The basis of ranking and final selection of successful candidates is based on the performance in NMAT, GD / PI & other selection process as well as work experience including academic performance etc. "

With regard to work Exp during graduation, Many institutes do not entertain part time work experience. Hope it answers your query.

Reference :- NMIMS - Admissions open for Sectoral MBA Batch 2008-10

All the Best

As you have mentioned that Your form has reached the isntitue before the deadline you need not worry much. I think theywould not send out acknowledgments to every one. The whole process of capturing the deatils from the form is manual so will take more than usual time so relax and prepare for GD/PI.

another way culd be to put up ur prefernces in SOP itslf (with an appropriate justification), but i personally feel 1 has more chances of getting grilleed in such a case!

Hi Coolanky,

1. Cannot comment on the GD Topics. But be updated with recent events and read a lot.

2. Global Business in colleges like IIFT and SIIB has been giving excellent placements. Most of the companies would be interested in picking people for export and import related job. As more Indian companies go global, placements are bound to improve. Also considering the stature of NMIMS in core MBA, companies will be soon pouring in for Sectoral MBA grads as well so you would soon see sectoral MBA competing with CORE MBA in placement statistics.

3. Nobody has recieved the acknowledgment mail. So wait for 26th when you can download your GD/PI call letters.

All the Best.
