hi ..

1. what is the total intake , break up of reservations for OBC , SC, ST
2. CAT cut off
3. fees for the full course + hostel
4. Placement details ....

Thanks

Hello.....This is Naba Deka ( using Amits ID)

Let me first introduce myself .....I am the Student placement coordinator , SMS(HCU) .Sujay and Sunil who are already active in Pagalguy are the placement team members coordinating for the same purpose .

One and half year back i did lot of research before taking admission as anybody else would do.I came across many positive and negative points, particularly many pagalguy post against the school put me in dilemma. But somehow i thought better not to listen to the highly negative criticisms about the B School because how can i trust somebody who is posting so bad against the institution he/she pursued his MBA from???? Just to let you know, my CAT score was not that good ...so i was trying to analyze the schools in range of 75-90 percentile in CAT considering various parameters.

After 3 semesters, i felt that i must share my personal experience and help the MBA aspirants.
To be frank......i never felt that i made a wrong decision joining here and i have facts and figures to speak against any of the negative posts regarding placements and many other sensitive issues........which i would do from my newly reactivated pagalguy ID as well as Amits for the coming admission period......

Replying to Yuvi...
1. Total Intake is 60, break up as per norms which is standard.
2.CAT cut off for general for the batch 2010-12 was somewhere close to 78-80(admission cut off...not cut off for interview process).... interview calls are given to lower percentiles since there is always a chance to prove yourself in GD and PI
3. Fees is something which a very +ve part of the whole programme, the whole course including hostel accommodation is approximately 1 lac ( For 2 years) , the hostel fee may be increased but it the total won't be more than 1.2 lac.....more interestingly the University pays 1000 Rs as stipend to the students.....
4.Placement statistics of current batch would be posted soon.....
