You are definitely eligible for SPJ application but your experience is just 2 years and as per my research SPJCM prefers 3 + years of experience and a very balanced profile.

Also, I would recommend you try CAT / GMAT as SPJ seems to prefer candidates with higher CAT / GMAT score.

Milid,

Just to give to a better picture of the ROI on UK and US universities, I am currently in touch with several of my friends who are pursuing their MBA in Perdue (US) , UMICH (US) & Univ Bradford (UK) and they have no sense of job guarantee, in fact most of them are certain of not landing a job in their respective universities.

On the other hand, In the face of global economic slowdown and worldwide job cuts places like SP JAIN , ISB, IIM-A (and some other TOP INDIAN Bschools) are the only Bschools (with 1 year MBA courses) which provide a job guarantee .

As for SPJ December batch , Dec 06-07 was the first December batch at SPJ and it had 100% placements with Rs.13 Lakhs + Average Indian Salary . The second batch is currently underway and there is no doubts around it.

Guys even i have applied for G MBA in SP Jain(Dubai-Singapore), and frankly speaking, have received mixed opinions about the same. Things like-
1) December intake is risky in terms of placements.
2) The course is not worth its cost (12 lakhs approx), comparing to those in Universities in U.K.

Friends i would definitely like to hear some words of encouragement.
kindly give your inputs..
Thanks

Hi

the paper had few sections and each section had 5-10 questions. The sections like quant were easy. There were puzzle type questions for which you can do some practice over internet, but to what extent it will help it will help don't know. The GK section has 11 questions and had many easy questions like Wimbledon champions, euro 08 final participants, country with highest life expectancy, OPEC headquartered at ?? the paper was Ok..not much difficult

Bhaskar

I am from Dec 07 Batch!!

All the thoughts mentioned are correct, but just one correction : 13 lakhs was not indian average salary neither do Institute state that, it was over all average salary.

Thanks for the quick clarification Tushar !!

May i request you to share your experience at SPJCM with the current DEC 07 batch. Could you let us know a bit more about the professors and the kind of exposure that you are gaining at SPJ Dubai & Singapore.

I was looking at a 1 year MBA and have zeroed in on SPJCM, NUS & ISB. I have already appeared for my GMAT and the details of my profile is provided in my signature.

I wanted to know about my chances to get through with 700 GMAT score as i have come to know that 690 is the average GMAT score at SPJ. Please let me know if i should appear for the SPJ exam.



JUST READ about:
SP JAIN -Dubai & Singapore has been rated as No.1 by AC NEILSEN in UAE. Other B-schools which have their presence in UAE are London School of Business, HULT, IMT, Heriot-Watt etc.

I have already passed out in Dec 07.

See quality wise there is no compromise in SP jain. We have best faculty and the major advantage of being in Dubai,Singapore is that even IIM profs can come and teach you. There are lot of consultants also who come to the campus.

Exposure wise we do 2 projects in our whole course. these are the best industry interface you can have , i did it with Microsoft and 3M.

Other that than the wide range of experience people come in and that really helps a lot.
