Dear Shweta, I have been admitted and have taken admission in SP Jain for ACFM.. had following query:
Previously there were two certificates given at the end of the program- PG Diploma and GMBA certificate. The site now says only one certificate for GMBA will be provided. I understand from others that this is due to changing regulations, and that we may still be given two certificates, if law permits. If not, then will the GMBA one will be co-signed by SPJIMR, as FAQ section GMBA - accreditation/certification point 1 states that it is jointly issued? Also, I wanted a clarification on the term "Certificate"- is it like a Degree Certificate or like a Certificate given at end of a course?? Meaning, is it considered on par with a Degree or PG Diploma? As only those have value when one applies for work permit abroad.

People trying for an EMBA at SP Jain Singapore, please do rethink your decision.
The professors are mostly good, it's the administration and fickle policies that will suck your blood away.
Examples:
No fixed schedule - all courses schedule are subject to change, forget planning your holiday/meeting or travel. For us working people this creates hell with your life - one cannot plan out anything more than 2 weeks in advance as any course start day will change, and no email intimation will be made, thats certain
No respect - Excited about your dissertation idea and want to bounce it with the head of marketing (as said by the management), forget it! Students have waited 6-8 weeks to get a meeting with the dean/heads and have been told they have no time.
Pay higher for the food: EMBA students pay more than GMBA students, utilize lesser resources than them, yet they need to pay upto 30% higher prices for the food at the canteen. Why, is my f***ing money not as good that you need more of it?
No respect for IPR: Harvard case studies are photocopied and distributed, and students asked to keep it 'hush', similar stories on many other issues like this
Books: You pay for the books in international currency, the books you receive are the India edition. Unfair or practical? You judge
I have not seen such a lackadaisical chalta hai attitude for a very long time. SP Jain has not only come to Singapore, it has brought the worst of India along with it.
No replies from course managers - really thick skinned bunch dont give much of a s**t about the EMBA students, they are the cash cows- milk them, ignore them
Modular format - in advanced classes you will have students with zero knowledge about the course (from new batches) to people who completed their foundation classes, as a result the professor will dumb down the course, this continues throughout the specialization, one achieves the minimum learning possible, not the maximum
If you do want to come to Singapore to study, look at other non-Indian options, you will not regret it.
pls see answers to your queries makred in bold below. Pls also read through our website www.spjain.org
Thanks Shweta

I am a Game Programmer with more around 32 months of work experience as of now with a first class in my academics and good extra curriculars. I am planning to apply for your December intake. I have a few questions though:
1) I am in a relatively novice industry (the Gaming Industry) in India. My work experience has been with 3 different companies, though the nature of my job was the same as that of Game Development. And I would again like to mention that this is because of the volatility of the industry. Would that have impact on my application as in almost 3 years experience in 3 companies?
2) Also which of your courses are on the lines of entrepreneurship?

No, This will not affect your application.
2) Also which of your courses are on the lines of entrepreneurship? We do not have specific courses that lean towards entrepreneurship, though we do have it as one of the subjects. You will have to look at your area of interest to decide which spec would be most suited to you
Thanks a lot Ms. Shweta. You really relieved me of some tension. Now I can concentrate on my preparation better. Also if you can please tell me when the application process would start for the Nov-Dec 2009 intake , it would be great!
We should open admissions for the Nov 09 intake around end of April 09. Pls check our website at regular intervals for updates regarding the same
