Does the ISB Hyderabad offer a PGDM or an MBA for a undergraduate having less than 24 months of work experience?
Yes, ISB Hyderabad offers an MBA program for an undergraduate with less than 2 years of work experience through these 2 options.
Young Leaders Program: This program is eligible for students who are pursuing Bachelor’s or Master’s education. To be eligible for this program, students need to take either GMAT or GRE. However, GMAT or GRE is not the only criterion in the selection process.
The pedagogy comprises on-campus and online learning modules that are finally integrated into the flagship PGPM program.
Early Entry Option: This option is for the ones who have completed their graduation but haven’t gained any experience yet. The eligibility criteria include sufficient GRE or GMAT scores. However, the admission, in this case, is deferred subject to the condition that the student completes 2 years of work experience if selected. This means if he gets selected, his admission is guaranteed after 2 years of work experience.
These are the 2 options available at ISB Hyderabad for those who have less than 2 years of experience.
Does IMT Ghaziabad have a management quota/backdoor entry for its PGDM course? If yes, what amount of donation should one expect?
No, IMT Ghaziabad has no back door entry for any of its programs be it PGDM or DCP. IMT Ghaziabad selection process is a strict and rigorous one you cannot escape.
The admission process comprises 2 steps
- The initial shortlisting through CAT, GMAT, or XAT exams
- The Group Exercise and Personal Interview round
Both these rounds are conducted solely on the basis of merit and not favoritism towards any caste, religion, or gender.
In case someone does mention a back door entry, it is definitely a trap and you shouldn’t fail for it and waste money.
What should be preference order of IMT Ghaziabad courses- PGDM, PGDM marketing, PGDM finance, PGDM DCP, PGDM banking, insurance and financial services?
IMT Ghaziabad offers a variety of courses that cater to various specializations. These courses have been listed and explained in their order of preference
- PGDM Marketing/PGDM Full Time (Marketing): This is the most coveted program among IMT students mainly because today its alumni have acquired top positions in big firms. Other major reasons include top-notch faculty, great internship and placement opportunities in terms of role and CTC, IMT’s eligibility, and excellent performances in recognized marketing and strategy B Schools competitions.
- PGDM Finance/PGDM Full Time (Finance): This one is most suitable for aspirants who are interested in Finance. However, this program offers lesser opportunities than the Marketing program in terms of role and CTC.
- PGDM Full Time (Operations): This program offers opportunities similar to that of Finance. But the batch size of PGDM Operations is smaller than PGDM Finance, so it may be easier to secure an internship/final placement, but the opportunities come less compared to Finance.
- PGDM DCP: DCP or the Dual Country Program is for those who are keen to get international exposure. Compared to an MBA from a foreign university, this program is cheaper and yet offers an opportunity to explore a different culture and learn to make decisions in an international context. This is best suitable for those who are in the Marketing domain.
- PGDM Banking and Financial Services (PGDM-BFS): This program was launched in 2019 and is relatively newer. It targets the core Banking and Finance sector. While the MBA program aims to provide a holistic view of management, this program solely focuses on Banking and Finance.
- PGDM Full Time (HR): This is the least taken course and offers very less in terms of opportunities.
The courses have been arranged preference-wise so will make it easy for you to choose one.
For an MBA PGDM, which is better IMT Ghaziabad or IIM Rohtak?
When comparing IIM Rohtak to IMT Ghaziabad, the preference varies from person to person. IIM Rohtak is unable to match IMT G's history, its extensive network of corporate connections, and its superior learning environment and segment of the population.
IIM Rohtak is unquestionably a good choice, and it will get you the IIM name, which IMT Ghaziabad lacks. If you are certain that you want to pursue marketing, then disregard IIM Rohtak. When it comes to marketing, IMT G easily outperforms it.
There isn't much of a difference between IIM Rohtak and IMT Ghaziabad, so your decision between them ultimately depends on how you want to shape yourself if your options aren't limited to marketing or if you haven't decided what you'll pursue and explore once you enroll in the B-school. If either of these situations applies to you, then you must make a personal decision.
If you want to study marketing, IMT Ghaziabad is the place to be. If you decide on anything other than marketing, you will end up getting hired for the same corporate positions. IMT G, as a brand, currently offers better prospects than IIM Rohtak and has much more to offer.
