Studied at the Indian Institute of Management Raipur (Graduated 2021)

Making a decision to join an MBA college is a significant investment in money, time, and effort. It can be a source of confusion, dilemma, and anxiety for MBA aspirants. The question of whether an MBA college is worth joining is subjective, as the returns on investment will vary for different individuals. For some, only the top-ranked colleges like IIM Ahmadabad, Bangalore, or Calcutta will be considered. In contrast, for others, a more pragmatic approach may be taken to weigh the pros and cons of different options.

IIM Raipur, in its 12th year of inception, has been making tremendous strides in its growth journey and is worth joining for several reasons. 

  • First, placements at IIM Raipur have been consistently strong, with an increase in the number of companies visiting the campus for final and summer placements, and diversification in the roles offered. The average package has also been rising, with students being offered roles in analytics, wealth management, and other fields. Additionally, IIM Raipur is a non-profit government institution with affordable fees, compared to many private institutions.
  • Second, the IIM brand is a significant asset, as it is widely recognized as a symbol of excellence in the industry. It instills a sense of confidence in students and opens up opportunities for them in the corporate world. 
  • Third, the new campus of IIM Raipur has state-of-the-art infrastructure with modern design and modern classrooms, sports complexes, and hostels with single occupancy and attached bathrooms.
  • Fourth, the course pedagogy at IIM Raipur offers flexibility in terms of curriculum design, which is relevant to the industry. It allows students to pursue majors in more than one specialization, and thus broaden the spectrum of career opportunities. 
  • Finally, life at IIM Raipur is vibrant and diverse, with multiple platforms for students to explore and express interests beyond the classroom, including extra-curricular activities, student club activities, and various student bodies that give an avenue to improve leadership skills, interpersonal skills, and create memories in the process.

While there may be some shortcomings, such as the mess food or the location of Raipur, it is crucial to keep in mind that the college is making great strides in all dimensions, and is definitely worth joining compared to many other institutions in its league.

Which is better for MBBS: KMC Manipal or GSVM Kanpur?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 28th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

KMC Manipal has an excellent crowd contrary to the general perception. Here, you need brains and not money to get admission. The admissions are based on merits so the quality of the crowd is not compromised at all. Only about 10% of the batch are NEI students or those with Indian ethnicity but are not citizens of this country WHO had to pay to get their seats. There are no management seats at all. The truth is that the number of meritorious students in government colleges is actually less because they have reservations for backward classes while private colleges do not.

So, go for KMC Manipal!

What is the reputation of CMC Vellore abroad? Do we get paid during the bond period there for two years?

CJ
Cecelia Jones Posted On : September 22nd, 2023
studied at Christian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore (2020)

CMC Vellore enjoys a good reputation abroad and you are highly regarded wherever you go. However, you might be considered highly by the Indians staying abroad and not the locals because they hardly know about CMC. People might not be familiar with your college if you are working with a multinational set of colleagues.

Coming to the second part of your question, yes, you do get paid during the bond period of 2 years but the salary depends on your sponsoring body. Some sponsoring bodies have more funds than others so you might not receive a salary equal to your friends. The primary goal is to serve the community so your focus should be social service and not monetary gains. Moreover, the hands-on experience and exposure you get are unmatched and improve your skills a lot and also improve your job opportunities. So, keep money on the back pedestal and work hard to serve society!

What is the admission process and eligibility for the MDI Gurgaon?

DV
Dishant Verma Posted On : March 7th, 2023
IIMA Alumnus

To get admission into Management Development Institute (MDI), the first step is to take the Common Admission Test (CAT) exam. You are eligible to write CAT if you have a recognized bachelor's degree (or professional degree like CA, CS, or ICWA) and have scored an aggregate of 50% (45% for SC/ST and PWD students). Even students in their final year of a bachelor's degree can write the CAT exam.

The admission process at MDI consists of two stages. In the first stage, candidates are shortlisted for interviews based on their CAT score. In the second stage, a Personal Interview (PI) is conducted, and the final selection list is made based on the CAT percentile, Personal Interview, and Application score, which includes X, XII, Academic Diversity, Gender Diversity, and Work Experience.

The weightage for the CAT score in the final selection is 55%, which means a good CAT score boosts the chances of getting selected for the MBA program at MDI. To help you prepare for CAT, MDI offers free resources that can help you understand their pedagogy better, such as three free CAT mocks, one test on each topic (VARC, DILR, Quant) every day, the formula PDFs for all Quant topics for CAT, around 25 solved previous papers of CAT, and a CAT Percentile Predictor.

If you are aspiring to get into MDI, it is important to score well in CAT and prepare well for the Personal Interview.
