Hey Dude,
Just now got a doubt...Does SCIT consider sectional cut off's or overall marks will do justice? How much is usual cut off for SCIT?

Its normally overall cutoff they look for. cutoff for SCIT depends on the fact that for which specialization you are applying for..so it will be great if you can let me knw that what you wanna apply for..

Hi all,
I am a newbie here......i am preparing for cat-2009,snap 2010, xat 2010. I will be interested to know few details.
I am an ece (B.Tech) and working in the bpo sector for the last 4 years.
x-79%
xii-46%
b.tech-75%
What are my chances of getting selected in scit(itbm) if i have a decent snap score and decent gd/pi.
Will they be biased because of my poor acads and me working in a bpo after my b.tech.
please help.
well i can say thqat in any bschool acads matter but they are only a part of overall weightage and u have decnt in x and btech imo they they wont matter as long as u trackle the question realted to them well
best of luck
Hi!
I will write SNAP this year. In fact, I did write it the last year too. And as per the demarcation given, would have cleared the cut off for ITBM easily, but didn't apply to SCIT. Moreover, the global meltdown made me apprehensive.
Anyway, this time, I want to fill up SCIT. I have pretty decent acads-->
X:90.4(CBSE); XII:88.4(CBSE); Grads(B.Tech.-CS):77.1
And good extra-currics too.
What I basically wanted to know was:
1) What has been the average (domestic, and international both) package offered to students this time?
2) Is there any scholarship available? Something on the lines of 'merit-cum-means' basis? If yes, what's the criteria? (In desperate need of a good scholarship)
Thanks. 😃

@ampunter,
The total score cutoffs mentions on the website, will only get you to the gd/pi level.. So if you are trying for ITBM , if you score around 70+ in snap, u have a fair chance..
Here are the weightages which get added to the snap score..
Final Score = SNAP Score + 10 marks for scoring more than 60% in each of 10th, 12th and aggregate of qualifying graduate exam + 5 marks for Engineering Graduates + 5 marks for Graduates with Computers Science/ Computer application/ IT + 5 marks for relevent full time Work experience above 18 months as on 1st September 2008, if any, + 5 marks for scoring more than 25% marks in each section of SNAP Test
So u can add 10 marks (5+5) to ur snap score considering that u r an Engg graduate an also have more then 18 months of work-ex.
They are not biased coz of low acads or bpo work-ex..
Hope that clears ur doubt..

Hi Rahul,
At the outset, let me thank you for your wonderful posts. I have read your posts in other threads & they were very enlightening.I am a comp engg. & have worked as a java programmer for 2.6 years and presently I am working as a Sr. Business Analyst/BD Exe. for 6 months. I am interested in enhancing my BA profile. Which course do you suggest for this : ITBM or Systems. Could you also please enlighten about the profile of the students once they leave SCIT
Thanks,
David

Hi David. Thanks for your word appreciation. Well you told that you working as BA/BD Exe...I would like to know more that whether you working more towards BD side or inclined more on BA side..once I am clear on that..then only I would be in a better situation to comment on your query. Once a student leaves SCIT..it depends that from what spec you did your Masters..e.g students leaving from Systems normally aim for roles like BA, Business Process analyst, BPM, Systems analyst, techno consultant etc. These roles are like niche ones for systems..so it "DEPENDS"...so would like you to refine your query a bit..
thanks

Hi Rahul,
Thanks for replying to my post. Well, after working as a java programmer for 2.6 years, I had worked for 6 months as a Business Development specialist in an IT firm where I was also involved in system analysis, but predominantly I was into selling their IT products. However, I was more inclined to work as a business analyst/system analyst so I joined a new company where my profile is more of a BA than a BD(more than 80% BA work). I am more interested in enhancing my profile as a BA. Can you please guide me as to which of ITBM or Systems would be better in enhancing my profile as a BA. Also please let me know the kind of profiles ITBM as well as System grads get into?
My query is in similar lines as that of David. I have 3 years of development exp in Java , but of late had been working as a Data Analyst. I am looking forward to leverage this profile and launch a career as Business Analyst.
Any of you at SCIT, could you please map the profiles of the students with the the 4 departments you have at SCIT ? This is just to gain an insight and zero in on a particular department to align to the objectives I have in my mind with regard to doing an MBA from SCIT.
Thanks in advance !
Hey guys.. I'm an alumni of SCIT.. passed out in 2006... drop me an questions you have and will do my best to answer them... ciao...
