Shantanu Sharma from the PGDM Marketing batch of 2025 feels “Placements are something on which IMT focuses a lot. After some days of entering the college, you will be having an interaction with the Placement committee. They will tell you all about the placements( summer and final), They are somewhat strict but that is something they should be because if they are not strict students will not follow their instructions and it will affect the image of the college in front of corporate players. You may opt out for placement if you want but if not then the college will do all the efforts to get you placed. placements are 100% since the inception of the college.” Read More

“The summer Internship week was hectic, I haven’t seen many companies come for hiring in my engineering days, so the experience was totally different. My dream company Microsoft was coming to campus and that made me the happiest alive on receiving the news. Everyone attended workshops on how to build the best CVs, and how to communicate better with a hiring manager. College alumni took sessions, talking about their days and how they attended the entire process. The days went by so fast. In MBA months pass by as days.” Read More

“The room is double occupancy and there are 2 almirahs, 2 single beds and 2 table chairs set in each room. the room also has air conditoner. living in a hostel is mandatory as it is a residential program. the quality of food is very good and they provide 4 meals with a day, breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner. registration is quite easy you just need to go and verify some details then they will tell you the allotted room.”Read More |
Hrithik Bhatt (DCP Batch 2025) |
“The registeration process was simple. Inside the room there was a bed, chair, table, wadrobe and AC. The room is quite spacious for luggage. The only downside I would say from my point is view is that every floor has common washrooms which might be difficult to adjust for a few people. The mess food is very good here. From my undergrand hostel experience, I used to order food from outside quite a lot. But after coming to IMT Ghaziabad, I haven't had the need to order food from outside yet. So that tells a lot about the quality of the food offered here” Read More |

I have applied to many iims and also got shortlisted from baby iims and iim shillong. Major drawback for me was lack of proper preperation for interview. I finally converted imt ghaziabad. I learned about various mistakes that i made in other interview process and finally converted imt ghaziabad
The other colleges I applied to were, all IIMs, MDI, XLRI, FORE, IMI. I had confirmed admissions from IMT-G, FORE, IMI, IIM-CAP except IIM Udaipur and was waitlisted in MDI. I had to choose between IIM Raipur and IMT Ghaziabad in the end and I ended up choosing IMT because my parents didn’t want to send me too far away, and because I reside in Delhi, staying in Ghaziabad was very convenient. I did her rejected from old IIMs because I couldn’t clear the percentile cut off, got rejected from XLRI-BM programme because I didn’t perform at par in the interview. The admission process of IMT is pretty convenient. We can get in through multiple different exams such as CAT, XAT or GMAT. The course most preferred here is PGDM Marketing and we have great faculty for every course in the college.
I chose IMT as it was a renowned name especially for marketing course. 1.The placements were decent for a college which is not in top 15 colleges of the country. 2. Good Alumni network with college legacy extending to over 40 years. 3. College being placed in the metro city provides good opportunity for industry connect which was a problem with few of the other newer IIM's. Other colleges that I applied to 1. Applied to IIIM's, XLRI, XIMB, Symbiosis colleges and NMIMS. Cat score wasn't good enough to get calls from most of the IIM's. Gave interview for XLRI HR, didn't convert. Converted XIMB but chose IMT over it. Admission process of IMT 1. CAT/XAT/GMAT test. 2. Writing test of 10 minutes where you get a topic on spot and need to write 300 odd words on the same. 3. Personal Interview round.
So I applied for IMT, MDI, IIFT, XIMB, NMIMS, IMI and BITSOM. I wasn't able to convert IIFT and NMIMS because of my percentile (95.1) and NMAT score. For MDI my GDPI went well but I believe my Acads related knowledge was less. So from XIMB, IMI and IMT I chose IMT because its a great college for marketing and also its near to my house. My sister passed out from this college in 2014 and she is doing well in her life which motivated me more to get into this college. My college admission process was firstly getting the required percentile for shortlisting, then an essay writing and PI was done on the date selected. Then the result came out after one and a half months. Cutoff for CAT was above 92 percentile and for XAT it was above 94 percentile.
I got confirmed admissions from Great Lakes, SIBM Bengaluru. I chose IMT G instead of the other two colleges for two primary reasons. The first one was that I wanted to enroll in a 2-year course, and Great Lakes was offering a 1-year course. So, Despite the average package of both colleges being similar, I chose IMT. Secondly, IMT G was closer to my home(Delhi) as compared to SIBM Bengaluru. So I didn't choose SIBM Bengaluru. I did my preparation with my job. So, I had limited time. But I still feel that I wasted a lot of time. If I had utilized my time a little better, I would have gotten into one of the top IIMs. Also, I focused more on quants as compared to DILR and VARC. Though I did score 99.7 in quants, I could not score as high in the other 2 sections.
I had applied to KJ Somaiya, SIIB and IMT Ghaziabad, and got admission offers from all. However I chose IMT because of its reputation as a Mecca for Marketing and after being able to talk some alumni of the institute who passed out earlier. The only college I was technically rejected from was NMIMS as I did not make the cutoff for a GDPI. For IMT Ghaziabad, you could apply via CAT or XAT, I got in via CAT. This was followed by the CTPI Process which was a critical thinking written paragraph based on a relatively prevalent topic followed by a Personal Interview. To my knowledge most people got in via CAT although that is more basis conversations I have had with people and not any empirical data to support the same. The overall admission process was pretty smooth, right from document verification during the CTPI to hostel allocation, we knew what all documents to bring at what time with no last minute revision to the documents required section.
IMT accepts CAT, XAT and GMAT to get in you have to have a 90 percentile above in either CAT or XAT and then you wake it yo the written assessment and personal interview round. I scored decently in XAT and made it to the WAPI round, my experience giving my imt interview was extremely exciting yet overwhelming but after I was done with my interview I had this feeling that I'll make it to this college and that's what ended up happening. I applied to IIMs but I didn't get a call from any of them, and others included GIM, IMI, symbiosis bangalore, TAPMI, KJ Somaiya I wasn't rejected from any of the colleges I applied to I was either wait listed or offered admission. I chose IMT because of the legacy that this institute holds the quality of learning it provides, the networking opportunity it presents and the doors that it will open for me be it networking, placements or short term projects
I applied to almost all the top 20 bschools in the country and got a confirmed admission from baby IIMs, XIMB Bhubaneswar, SIBM and finally IMT Ghaziabad. I chose IMT Ghaziabad because of strong alumni network, its reputation, the facilities available at the campus, its location and its vibrant student life. Yes, I did get rejected from other bschools. One particular instance I remember is from SPJIMR. I underperformed in the group interview stage and couldn't understand what was being exactly the motive behind the interviewers question. In admission process, the candidate needs to meet the eligibility criteria defined by the college. Then the candidates need to undergo an entry test like CAT, XAT, or GMAT. Later on, candidates have to fill an online application form in which his or her personal details along with their educational background are asked. Candidates short-listed are taken for critical thinking test and personal interview. This is the stage where the communication skills and personality get tested. Call is finally taken based on the performance in entrance examinations, academic records, experience relevant to the job at work, and the performance in GD and PI. The shortlisted candidates are contacted to extend to them the admission offer, and subsequently, they must enroll through the whole process and present all their required documents, and pay the fees.
I didn’t score well in CAT so many colleges I couldn’t apply to. But scored well in XAT, got call letters from XLRI and IMT. Didn’t apply to XIBM as I had heard some bad things about the placement committee and the bullying. Heard the same about IMT but I didn’t get into XLRI so IMT was my only option. XLRI I think I didn’t get in because my marks were only 94%ile if I had more I would have a good chance. Also my HR interview was very stressful and I cracked under pressure. BM interview was good but I think me not having studied math since 10th grade played a role in me not getting BM. IMT interview process was very chill. I had a good time, I was relaxed so performed well.
I applied to all baby and new IIMs, IMI Delhi, GIM Goa, Great Lakes, Welingkar Mumbai, SIBM Pune, SCMHRD, Fore Delhi, SIBM Hyderabad, XLRI Jamshedpur, NMIMS Mumbai and Bangalore. I got confirmed admission offer from IIM Kashipur, IMI Delhi, Fore Delhi, Great Lakes, Welingkar Mumbai, SIBM Hyderabad, NMIMS Bangalore I chose IMT Ghaziabad over other colleges for : 1) Brand Name of IMT in Marketing, 2) The vast alumni network of IMT, 3) The Location of IMT (Delhi NCR) Did not pay waitlist fee for GIM Goa, IIM Thrichy, IIM Jammu and few other baby IIMs. Got waitlisted for NMIMS Mumbai. Scored less than 95 percentile in SNAP, hence did not get interview call for SIBM Pune and SCMHRD. Did not meet Quant sectional cutoff of XIMB and XLRI. IMT accepts CAT score, XAT and GMAT scores. The most preferred one is CAT since its most most widely accepted exam score in India for B Schools. Students are called in for Critical Thinking and Interview based on their academic and entrance exam scores. Students then are evaluated based on their CT and PI performance, along with their CV (Extra curriculars, Awards, Honorable mentions, Achievements) I had a pretty chill experience. My Interview and WAT was scheduled in Park Hotel, Chennai. The onboarding process was smooth, we got an opportunity to interact with current students of IMT, who shared with us their college experience. Administration was considerate enough when people missed few documents, or appeared at the venue late.

To secure admission to top MBA institutes in India, you should aim for CAT percentiles from 85 onwards. Here's the order of the institutes you should target in descending order - IIM K with 97+ percentile, MDI with 96+, IMT Ghaziabad with 90+, SPJain with 85+, and NITIE with as high as possible sectional-wise.
Even though SPJain is a premier institute, it gives a call from the 85 percentile onward, since they focus on overall values that an individual possesses and want students with more values in them. They have 2 group interviews, so they follow a rejection procedure.
NITIE has a sectional cutoff, so it's advisable to have as high as possible sectional-wise, as many people with an overall CAT percentile in the range of 97-98 were not selected in either of their 2 programs(PGDM and PGDIESM) in 2016.
IIM K also has a sectional cutoff of 90+, so it's important to score well in each section.
It's worth noting that these institutes do not have a sectional cutoff, but it's always advisable to have a 90+ sectional percentile to be on the safer side. Aim for high percentile and sectional scores to improve your chances of securing a seat in these prestigious institutes.

IMT Ghaziabad was considered one of the best B Schools in the early 2000 or the late 90s.In recent years, it has witnessed a slight decline in its quality of education. This stems from the increment in the batch size thereby declining the talent pool of candidates. The CAT cutoff was reduced to attract more and more candidates. This resulted in substandard crowds and low competition. Another reason was the previous director whose major aim was to earn money.
Recently again though IMT Ghaziabad is gaining fame because of its new director Dr. Atish Chattopadhyay who is managing the institution excellently. He has reduced the students intake and increased the cutoff. He is constantly working towards improving the lost image of the institution.
The college offers excellent placement opportunities and its low average package is the result of large batch-size only. So don’t just look at placement reports, ask the alumni about its recent improvements.
I know a friend who led a stagnant work life before joining IMT Ghaziabad. After completing his MBA from IMT Ghaziabad, he was offered a much higher salary. His profile did improve but then life challenged him with other problems. He worked as a BA in an American firm. After working for 2 years he finally switched to a Big 4 firm.
IMT Ghaziabad is an old Institute and one’s career prospects depend more on their own motivation and determination here. If you are serious about succeeding you can make the best of the 2 years here and get good roles.
I have seen many students able to get placed because they belonged to the lowest level in class and many same students who were mediocre in studies but managed to grab good roles. So luck is another factor that determines your prospects.
Most of the IMT Ghaziabad alumni I Know are doing great in their careers and belong to the topmost level of their organizations. INT Ghaziabad has impacted the lives of many and its alumni are a living example of the same.
