10th-90.2
12th-85
grad(bsc bio)- 84(approx till 4th sem)....do i stand any chance to get BIMHRD....plz help

thanx

I am seeing this forum and want to give some clarifications as the current senior batch student of BIMM
1. BIMM is called as the flagship institute because it was the first institute of Sri Balaji society.it was initially known as IIMM when it was autonomous and when they went to AICTE approval they said the word "Indian" can't be used by private institute even if it is approved by AICTE. Hence the word "Indian" was replaced by "Balaji".
2. BITM (then ICTM) , BIIB (then ICIB) , BIMHRD (then ICMHRD) were started subsequently and hence is known as sister institutions.
3. Common admission Process takes place for all the four institutes at a time in 25 cities all over India. Since everyone does'nt apply for CAT and also as the supreme court of India has accepted 5 National level entrance test, 3 Scores are accepted by Sri Balaji Society.-CAT, to which the four institutes are affiliated, CMAT- which is conducted by AICTE.MAT- which is conducted by All India Association of Management Schools. CMAT and MAT Scores are however equalized to CAT scores. The total weightage given in the overall merit list for the entrance test is 30 % only. Therefore the cut off point is not relevant in Sri Balaji Society. They have their own merit list making mechanism which is properly published in the handbook. The handbook is available in their website (www.balajisociety.org)
4. weightage given to GD is 30% , to interview is 30% and for essay writing 10%. GD is a lengthy process of 45 minutes. Bala sir himself visits most of the centres and takes the GD which includes a briefing, interaction with each applicant, face to face clarifications, role play , extempore and a GD.I myself have gone through this and such is the case with everyone whoever has been finally selected.
5. Each institute has its exclusive companies also, although 99% of the companies have common placements for al he four istitutes.eg: Vedanta (which recruits 2 or 3 students every year), ICICI (which recruited 10-15 students) and HDFC are visiting BIMM and very soon all these will visit all the four institutes. Infosys visited BITM only. Though they visited BIMM also last year. State Trading corporation which offers 7.25 l visited BIIB only. Like this depending upon the vacancy the company visits and recruits.
6. The average salary in BIMM is slightly high because there is an Executive Batch with students with work experience. Moreover 50-60% of the BIMM students have some work experience besides being engineers.
We educated people should understand all the relevant facts instead of fighting in dark. It should also be noted that there is something known as “ individual capability”.
7. What is fact is faculties here are excellent. The discipline is the key word here. Those who can’t attend class regularly should be discouraged to join any of Sri Balaji’s Institutes. Life is tough but quite exciting. It has a rich list of alumni in the corporate world
8. When it comes to placements, it is a big fight amongst the four institutes as it is a common placements. So it is the “survival of the fittest”. The company lays down the criteria and the CV’s are sent to them. They shortlist and see the students. No one including the directors or even Bala Sir is allowed to interfere in the system. It is an absolutely open and transparent system. What is to be noted is all the corporate relation teams of all the four institutes get the companies for all the students from all the four institutes.
So friends, instead of listening here and the visit our alumni sites and talk to our alumni or ask your friends to visit the campus and check. A Society which places nearly 1000 students every year with good compensation in branded companies now for more than a decade has its own strengths. Do take time to visit our website and understand the information.

Please let us know following with respect to MBA 2012 admissions:
1. The last date to apply.
2. Which exams (CAT/XAT/MHCET) are used for qualifying.
3. Approx cutoff in CAT/XAT last year for admissions.
4. Avg HR Placements package.
5. Highest HR placement package.
6. Lowest HR placement package.
7. % of placements for HR section. (Placed Students/Total Students)
8. Total fees for HR course.
9. If I want to do an HR course, which one is better? BIMM or BIMHRD?

As such there is no exception but atleast you should apply and should have good percentile in entrance exams.
And if you are decent enough to perform in gd and pi and convince the interviewer with your traits then they defenately would select you.

Hope that helps.

Hey!sorry yes I meant the 2009-2011 batch.thanks.
Just have one more query...earlier in the thread someone mentioned that the course involves a masters in labour laws aswell.but how do we get a masters if we haven't done our bachelors in labour laws?

:
There are some Masters' course that can be pursued just on the basis of your graduation(irrespective of the stream). MLL & LW happens to be one of those degrees.

Thanks a lot Manish for the useful post.

Could you please elaborate your point on 'ROI factor'?

I mean how good is the college in terms of Profile-based placements as I wish to pursue my masters in HR so how good are the chances of me getting an HR based profile job?

The HR students are offered core HR based profiles like Hiring, Recruitments, Training & Developemnt, Hr Generalist, IR, etc.

Hi Manish,
I would like you to pls address my queries regarding admissions @ SBS society.

1. What is the total cost of studying (accomodation + food) at SBS society(BIMM/BIMHRD to be specific)for two years as I am from Indore and would be taking an education loan for my masters?

2. How is the college in regard of ROI?

3. I have heard that BIMHRD also offers a Masters in Labour Laws(MLL) degree alongwith PGDM-PM & HRD course with an additional fee of Rs. 10,000. How will a MLL degree be beneficial to PM & HRD students and how will that give an edge to the students from SBS over other students?

thanks in advance,
cat_ritz

Hi..

1.) The cost would be 6,00,000-fees, around 70,000 for living and food around 40,000 for two years.

2.) The college is quite good in terms of ROI and apart from that the experience that you will have in these two years will be something that will make you all set to face the challenges of the corporate world.

3.) MLL degree is for students specializing in PM & HRD (be it BIMHRD or BIMM).
Though am not an HR student, I would like to add that as an HR(and IR) personnel, one needs to have thorough knowledge of all the laws, etc and this is where MLL would come into play. Also, getting a Masters degree from Pune University, that is considered to be one of the good universities in India, would definitely be an advantage.

I hope that helps :)

guys how wud i come to know if i have been shortlisted???

You need to go to the website and under the Admissions head you will find a link that would facilitate you to download the admit card once you feed in your registration number.
Incase, the site isn't working, you can always call up the Admission Cell to enquire about the status of your admit card.
