deadraizer · January 20, 2013, 11:59am

@avinashkrjha Thanks! I just filled out IMT GZB application, would soon do the same for others. Also, would IMI extend their application deadline? And if yes, should I consider applying for it? Also what about MICA?

@tuhiverma there will be a lot of colleges accepting that score, but all low grade colleges... doing an MBA from such a college does not make any sense

@ajaygovindg ....thanks for responding...I think the course is better known as Information Management and I might have misquoted by mentioning IT Management...I am an IT guy with 5 yrs plus experience and this stream relates the most to my worx ex...so I want to pursue this...While there are many bschools outside India having good rankings for this spec I am not sure about the Indian B Schools...Also, by rating i mean not only the salary but also the quality of faculty, curriculum and infrastructure....Like we have IIM-C and NITIE renowned for finance and Operations mgmt respectively, is there any b school for Information Mgmt?Any further info that you or any other Puys can give me would be very appreciated..!!!TIA

I believe SPJAIN has a course on this. You can check their website or ask in the relevant thread here in PG (Use PG Search to find it). Further, with your work exp I would recommend maybe you should take up GMAT and target the 1yr programmes in India. Most of them are General Management programmes, but then there are IT majors which may be recruting for the profile you're looking for. You can speak with current students there to find out more. Some of the 1yr programmes in India are listed at - http://www.pagalguy.com/posts/4246458

Whether a course is good/bad is subjective and you'll have to take the call for yourself. Like I've been repeatedly saying in this thread and other places also, it depends on your expectations from MBA.

The institutes you say are good in their own terms and you can expect calls from all (including Christ which you're thinking of applying). Chances of conversion in TAPMI are bit bleak because CAT score also has weightage in final selection. In other places also chances of conversion depends on your GDPI performance.

Percentiles are for the first time in SNAP, so no one knows what cutoff's are going to be for each institute. You'll have to wait and see if you'll get a call.

I'm not sure of the cutoff for KJSOM-FS. @avinashkrjha Your inputs needed!!
