Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Both IIM Shillong and S P Jain Mumbai are highly regarded management institutes in India. IIM Shillong is a government-owned institution and one of the top-ranked management institutes in the country. It offers a two-year Post Graduate Program in Management (PGPM) that provides students with a solid foundation in management education.

S P Jain Mumbai, on the other hand, is a private institution that offers various management programs, including a two-year full-time PGDM (Post Graduate Diploma in Management) program, which is equivalent to an MBA degree. It has been consistently ranked among the top business schools in India and has a strong global reputation.

When deciding between IIM Shillong and S P Jain Mumbai, you should consider factors such as program structure, curriculum, faculty, campus facilities, location, and placement records. You may also want to research the alumni network of both institutions and the industry partnerships they have to gain insights into the career opportunities they offer.

However, it will be suggested to enroll in SP Jain Mumbai, rather than IIM Shillong.

Between IIM Shillong, SJMSOM, and IIM Trichy, which college is best? I am looking for a good learning experience and placements.

AA
Ananya Agrawal Posted On : January 30th, 2023

The Shailesh J. Mehta School of Management (SJMSOM) in Mumbai offers several advantages to its students. According to a report, the highest salary package for the 2022 batch at SJMSOM was approximately 49.39% higher than the previous year, at INR 49 LPA. The average salary for the 2020-2022 batch was also 18.1% higher than the previous year, at INR 25.9 LPA.

SJMSOM attracts highly prestigious companies for recruitment, including JP Morgan, ICICI Bank, Infosys Consulting, KPMG Global Services, PwC India, Wipro, and MAQ Software, among others. The smaller batch size at SJMSOM allows for more opportunities for students to participate in activities and committees, promoting their holistic development.

SJMSOM also offers a high number of live projects and industry interaction sessions, providing students with knowledge and experience beyond what is found in textbooks. When considering SJMSOM as an option, students may also be considering other institutes such as IIM K or IIM I. It is worth noting that while IIM Trichy is a good college, new IIMs may still be in the process of establishing themselves.

With 84% in 10th, 79% in 12th, a 7.89 CGPA and 3 yrs of work experience, am I eligible for the IIM Shillong and IIM Udaipur? I am a GEM.

RS

You are eligible for both IIMs. Your academics, on the other hand, are mediocre, which can work against you.

IIM Udaipur will contact you solely on the basis of your CAT score. IIM Shillong, on the other hand, may or may not. IIM-S has stringent admission requirements.

My only piece of advice is to ignore everything else and concentrate on getting a high CAT percentile, preferably above 99.5, and you'll almost certainly get into one of the IIMs.

With a balanced sectional and good percentile in CAT, you should get calls from both these institutes. Also, prepare well for the interview. The interview part of admission is the most difficult, so try to be confident as much as you can.

If you are confident that you will get a great percentile in CAT, you can also apply for FMS.

TISS at Mumbai is a famed institute. Why should a person opt for it? What career and personal goals one should set once he/she joins it? Is this a better choice compared to IIM Shillong?

SS
Samriddha Saha Posted On : February 5th, 2021
Studied at Tata Institute of Social Sciences, (2018)

Comparing TISS with renowned B-schools such as - XLRI (Jamshedpur), IIM (Shillong) will show that it is at par with them. TISS is one of the premier institutes in the Social sciences department. TISS, as a research institute is well equipped. The graduation degree is of standard quality as well, it will be worth your time and money.

At TISS, HR is not amongst the highlighted courses. It is Social Work and other public policy and development related courses that are at the forefront. HR, as a course, is parallel to the management side of the education TISS has included it in the course list. Apart from HR, TISS also has another management program which is the Social Entrepreneurship course.

Now, let’s sum up the plus points of TISS, as the best-selected option:

NAAC Accreditation

'A' (It has been rated as the best university for Social Sciences in India)

Faculty

Best HR faculty in India; Extremely helpful and encouraging professors.

Placement Percentage (2020) 

80-90%

Highest CTC

INR 32LPA. (Its recruitment standards are equal to XLRI PMIR)

Average CTC

20.60 LPA

Recruiting Companies

KPMG, Urban Management Centre, Amazon, CitiBank, etc.

Best courses

HR; MPH; MHA

TISS, when it comes to HR, is definitely a more suitable option than IIM Shillong. However, a comparison cannot be set between the two colleges, in totality. Both of these educational institutes have different specialization courses. Therefore, a common leveling ground is absent.

These are the stand-out features of TISS but a comparison with the IIMs is not justified, as they both deal with different subject matters at different levels.
