@ishanverma said:thnx shubham, uve really answereda lot of my queries regarding the sop.
I know that ishan.. ATB!!! :)
@nmims_core : can we send the consolidated marksheet containing the marks of all semesters or do we have to send the mark-sheets of each individual semester ?
As promised, a series of posts to help you get through !
Starting with SOP Tips.
A good SOP would invite intelligent questions from the panel, which can be handled with ease by any candidate. After all, it is your own SOP..
There is certain preferred format for a good SOP, though not a rigid one.
1.INTRODUCTION: Extremely important. This creates an interest for the reader to pursue further. It can start with your background or your best reason for doing an MBA. Or you can relate your life experiences and your decision to do an MBA.
2.BODY: It must deal with
a. WHY MBA?
b. Your current work ex/ Study environment and how an MBA will help you pursue it further, or act as a continuance for your career.
c. Your laurels ( not more than 2 years old), awards, recognition and how they add to your profile for an MBA candidate. They must display some essential skills like leadership, diligence, perseverance, passion, motivation and like. But don't overdo it, don't mention more than 3-4 such events.
d. Any source of inspiration who pushed you to do an MBA to fulfill the reasons you mentioned earlier
e. Any relevant information, you deem fit
3.CONCLUSION: Now you must deal with, " WHY NMIMS". Research about NMIMS, and find some facts which can be related to the reasons that you mentioned earlier. Mention them clearly.
Some important tips..
1.Use your mind, not your heart. Don't use cliched statements or poetic words. MBA waale poetic line maarne lage to companies band ho jaayengi.
2.Don't portray yourself as a superman. A humble approach is recommended.
3.Don't mention entrepreneurship unless you are serious about it, or can back it up with some solid facts. It is a favorite reason for most of the candidates, and most loathed by the PI panel.
4.500 words is the limit. Write it in paragraphs, but not too lengthy ones to put the panel to sleep.
Please refer to the PG thread," How to write an SOP"for more tips. I am attaching my SOP for NMIMS for reference only. It is heavily drawn from the thread and my experiences. Please don't indulge in any blatant plagiarism, though some muted ones would do...
Best of Luck !!
we are required to make a DD for CD/PI registration. So do we need to make separate DD for both FTMBA and HR of Rs. 950 each?

No need of branch. Only "Payable at Mumbai" will do.
