How does JAGSoM compare with GIM Goa in terms of marketing roles?

Nalla college hai. It;s a scam

Straight question is 10/11 LPA average CTC at jagsom realistic or inflated? How many students actually cross 10LPA+, roughly?

Why do alumni voices feel less visible online compared to TAPMI or GIM? is it because they know the truth.

Biggest concern with JAGSoM?

  • Fees vs average CTC
  • Brand recall
  • Placement transparency
  • Nothing major
