Should I attend NMIMS Mumbai or SPJIMR for an MBA in finance?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : June 4th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

NMIMS Mumbai and SPJIMR are prestigious Indian business institutions with excellent finance MBA programs. We can consider these:

  • Reputation and Rankings: SPJIMR frequently outranks NMIMS in national and international MBA rankings.
  • Curriculum and staff: Both schools feature rigorous MBA programs with a finance focus and highly competent staff. SPJIMR's experiential learning comprises case studies, simulations, and industrial projects.
  • Location: NMIMS is in Mumbai, India's financial center, which offers many finance internships and positions. SPJIMR is in a quieter Mumbai area.
  • Alumni Network: Many successful finance professionals are alumni of both schools. SPJIMR alumni are more close-knit and supportive.

Both B-schools are good but the SPJIMR brand stands much above NMIMS. Placements are also good in SPJIMR and a small batch size is a big advantage. Projects are also good, so SPJIMR should be preferred.

Which law school is better, GNLU or NMIMS?

MB
Madumita Banerjee Posted On : July 16th, 2021
B.B.A. LL.B from Kirit P. Mehta School of Law, NMIMS (2019)

The certain winner here would be GNLU.

More batches have passed out from GNLU than NMIMS. GNLU also has better and more experienced faculties. Apart from these, GNLU is a well-established brand in the law education circuit. The campus, infrastructure, library, student quality is better at GNLU. You will get a lot more exposure, facilities, and opportunities at GNLU than at NMIMS.

Currently, there is a lot of room for NMIMS to improve. The classrooms are newly built and only a few batches of students passed out from NMIMS. Even though the student body is apparently doing well, it is yet to be established properly. The number of winners in MUNs, debates, moots, etc., is definitely growing but it still has a lot of work and improvements to do to become considerable. NMIMS is growing but to be as reputed and renowned as GNLU, will still take a lot of time.

What college should I choose: IIT Tirupati or IIIT Bangalore?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 9th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Both IIT Tirupati and IIIT Bangalore are well-respected institutions in India with strong programs in engineering and technology. The decision of which college to choose should be based on your personal preferences and goals.

Personally, I feel you should go for IIIT Bangalore since you seem to be interested in CSE. IIIT Bangalore is a highly reputed engineering institution in India, known for its strong programs in computer science, information technology, and electronics. The institute focuses primarily on industry collaboration and entrepreneurship and is known for its cutting-edge research in areas such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing. Although it lacks the IIT tag, this degree will cater to your interests better than Mechanical. The IIT tag is of no use if you aren’t interested in Mechanicals. Additionally, the new IITs are yet to make the mark and prove their credibility in the engineering field.

Ultimately, the choice between IIT Tirupati and IIIT Bangalore depends on your specific interests and career goals.

Which one should I choose between IIML-ABM and IIM Shillong PGP?

RT
Rima Tandon Posted On : February 24th, 2021
PGP from Indian Institute of Management Lucknow (2019)

There are almost the same given opportunities in both the institutes during summer, Laterals and Final placements. Well, there are two things you need to focus upon:

A few selected firms would not accept ABM students for the process (read Top 3 Consulting and Investment Banks and a certain Indian FMCG firm).

You will have to do ABM courses in your 2nd year with an option to take 2-3 electives, whereas in PGP you will be provided almost 15 electives.

Some facts regarding both institutes so that you can make better choices out of them.

Categories

IIM Lucknow

IIM Shillong

NIRF ranking

4th

30th

Course Fee

10.5 lakhs/year

8 lakhs/year

Highest salary package

54 lakhs

48 lakhs

If you want to do Marketing or General Management or end up in consultancy, then IIM L ABM is a good course because ABM 2nd year courses are nothing but Marketing, and so you don't miss out on anything compared to a PGP student. But go for IIM L ABM if you want to seek financing or operations.

Which is a better choice among IMI New Delhi, IIM-N and IIM-V? Why?

MP
Mohan Potdar Posted On : March 14th, 2023
MBA from International Management Institute (Graduated 2018)

 As an MBA aspirant, you should check the recent placements of IMI New Delhi, IIM-N, and IIM-V, faculty quality, student welfare avenues, and infrastructure to compare and evaluate different institutes. It's important to focus on median placement figures and adjust for batch size. 

You must look into the opportunities available for student involvement and well-being, such as clubs, societies, sports, cultural events, and corporate competitions. Check the corporate competition section of the school's website to see which companies participate, the positions secured by students, and the number of winners. Good performance in corporate competitions can indicate peer quality and highlight the institute among recruiters. While the brand IIM tag may benefit baby IIMs, established institutes may have better locations, student activities, and industry and alumni connections.
