[2023] Which B-Schools should you apply to?

@avinashkrjha ok ,DID TO YOU PLEASE CHECK
@avinashkrjha Have 88.5 %ile in XAT, should i apply to GLIM 2 year PGDM? Any idea bout ROI?
@ssprasad1992 Again its your call. First of all see whether you want to do a job in IT and make a career there or not. (Again It is not a bad option if you have work-ex in IT you can do mba and easily get back to IT sector at some higher post). If you want to make your career in core finance than your IT work-ex will not add any value to your cv, so in this case its better to go for MBA now. Those three colleges are good try to convert them and then take the decision.
@GhauL I am a fresher....Do finance specialized people have any chance to get back into IT? I mean for finance role in IT sector...or is it just banks who recruit for Finance roles?

Can you please tell me if I have any chance in getting into any top management institute in India or abroad?

10th-84.34%
12th-62.33%
Graduation (B.E) : 69.2 %

I am currently doing well in CAT and GMAT practice tests and pretty sure of getting around 97 percentile. Can you please enlighten me the best B-schools I can get into inside India as well as abroad. Thank you :-)

@ssprasad1992

Now a days most of the IT firms are present in BFSI sector. So they need people from finance background. Getting into IT companies is easy as compare to that of banks even if you are fresher. So first think that whether you like IT or not. If you are so much interested in finance than better to go for MBA now as three years down the line you will have relevant work-ex, which will add value to your cv.

Just a suggestion "was going through your acads" you can think about giving cat again as an IIM brand can make lots of difference in your career.

@hari2291sterTry to increase your percentile to 99% .As it will help you to cover up your acads. As per my view you should aim for MDI.
@visionIIM-ACL sir,
Admission windows of almost all the b schools have been closed,
And more than that, puys are asking repeated questions.
I think this thread has served its purpose,
I am requesting you to close this thread,
And Open new thread soon for 2013-14 session..

@missionCAT13

We can wait for few more days.

There are few colleges whose Application Window is still open.

And then probably we can close this thread.


New thread for 13-14 Season can be created after June/July when the Forms start coming.. !!

Guys looking for dual specialization in finance/it/marketing + Insruance.....please apply to NIA. Minimum placement: PSU 6 lakhs Private/MNC: 8.5 Lakhs. No foreign placements this year because students didnt want. Last year foreign companies: AETINS Malaysia: 8L BAI Mauritius: 10.5L. Engineers also have a great opportunity since good companies like Cogni, Accenture, Sungard, TCS, HCL, Wipro, NTT want students from insurance background. Profiles offered by these companies are Management trainees and job doesn't need coding. Only analyst or R&D.; message me for further details or raise questions on NIA2013-15 forum on PG. Cheers!!!
Ps: We do not want to mention of the Average because people might think that foreign placements pull up the average. The private package mentioned in minimum for domestic placements.
@pal1011
Please PM me for KJ placement related queries.

recently i got a brochure from VIT Business school Vellore..i scored 93percentile in XAT...anything about VIT. Is it worth to join there with this mark.....will the Brand name help??????.....pls reply


@jinsmba2013 Not really. With 93 percentile in XAT, I think you may have done fairly decent in CAT as well.. you should aim at better B-schools than VIT.

VIT has donation seats. There are a lot of politics involved. Ask yourself whether you want to do your PG in such a college.

I GOT SELECTED IN SCMS UNDER MAT (PGDM FOR INSURANCE AND BANKING STREAM)...BT IM LIL CONFUSED.....IS IT WORTH OF JOINING THERE...SUGGEST ME SOME OTHER GOOD COLLEGES,.....MY PROFILE X-82%,12-69%,BTECH-68%,MAT-87%,CAT-67%

@AJSAM92 you have no right to malign any college and btw have you paid money for mba seats in vit?Do you have any proof?Just stfu if you don't have facts and btw VIT is far better than any icfai college
Chill Bro. If you have such opinion, you can join. No issues. I just answered a fellow puy's query. Im entitled to my opinion and its upto him to listen. My Friends are from VIT. I know the situation there.

And By the way Dont have the opinion that you are the only person who is capable of using abusive language here. Maintain Decorum 😃 Peace out
@Shekhar1486 said:
@AJSAM92 you don't hold any credibility to give opinion to others. Are you an MBA student? I guess you are still fresh farm chicken. There are enough veterans here who are qualified enough to give opinions about college.
You are in no position to judge that either. I don't gain or loose anything here. Just voiced my opinion. I do not want to spoil the intent of this thread by getting involved in an unfruitful argument with you. Rest is upto the puys to decide :-)
