    @astha5 If you keenly observe 5 new iims and IIT Madras has moved up. IIM tag anyday is a heavyweight. SIMSR is working forward to improve its tag further. Steps are taken in this regard and sooner it will start reaping the benefits..

    hello Seniors,the pagalguy ranking report 2013 shows that KJ has slipped 6 rankings down. So,it will be ranked 27+6 = 33 in 2013. Source - http://www.pagalguy.com/news/b-school-rankings-2013-sneak-preview-b-schools-gained-lost-most-ranks-a-29624@interceptor16@SHIVAMUIET@manish.murthy@sharan.phoenix@PARNAMOY@Anirudh89Is the reason for this drop is introduction of new courses like IB,RM,FS,COMM ? Although Placement is not a sole criteria on which college should be judged, Hence i would like to know what can be other parameters that KJ has lost the ratings.your guidance/suggestions will be very important for us aspirants.

              @manish.murthy@ramneet.kaur@PARNAMOY@sharan.phoenix@Anirudh89Dear Members,I have read the brochure of KJ Somaiya available on the website. However, I still have some important queries in my mind regarding the courses and the college which can only be solved by your opinions. Please reply at the earliest If you wish, feel free to PM me your answers. Please remember the future of the students lies in your hands. So I hope to get proper answers from you.1) When was the course of PGDM (Core/RM/FS/IB) last revised ?2) Are the electives fixed for each course or do they offer it as per the need of the market ?3) Till what extent is the course useful in practical life ? Will it provide the fundamentals to survive in the corporate / business domain ?4) What is the quality of professors in the college ?5) What is the average experience of a professor in his/her subject ? Kindly remember experience does not mean only no. of years. It also includes the knowledge and skill of the required level.6) What activities are held and how much participation is involved ? What is the level of participation ? How many students are enthusiastic about conducting lectures, visiting conferences, applying the subject to practical domains ?7) What is the current status of placements ? Which kind of companies have been called or are coming ? What is the prediction about the next two years regarding placements ?8) How helpful are the teachers and other people in your personal life ? What is their basic character or conduct ? Currently, these are my queries. If need arises, I shall come back to you with more. The answers to these are essential to confirm my presence for the next stage. Thank you in advance.
              Ans 1) Course revision is an ongoing process. Every year the students are asked about any modification they want. Also the consultation of alumini working in variuos MNC's are considered.
              Ans 2) As I said course revision is an ongoing process and a wide range of electives are provided.
              Ans 3)Obviously MBA is a practical oriented course. It has to fulfill the need of the market.
              Ans 4) The professors not only have good academic experience but also a good industry experience.
              Ans 5) As I said there is a good mixture. We will try to upgrade the website to include the same.
              Ans 6) Well there are loads of conferences and activities that are lined up all through the year. On a lighter note this is one of the reasons why we get late for replying in pagalguy.
              Ans 7) Cannot be disclosed.
              Ans 8) Teachers are very helpful. Infact ispite of their busy schedule they keep a special slot for any discussion regarding your academic problems. It is mentioned in every session plan. Also every teacher has a somaiya domain mailbox which can be used to clarify doubts. Also a group of students have a specific mentor to whom they can approach collectively for problems not restricted to academics.
              Hope this helps.
