No, IMT Ghaziabad does not have admission through the management quota. The institute follows a transparent admission process based on merit and performance in entrance exams such as CAT, XAT, and GMAT. All the candidates who meet the eligibility criteria and clear the cut-off score are called for the selection process, which includes a group discussion and a personal interview.

How is the PGDM dual country program in the IMT Ghaziabad?

RJ
Ritu Jain Posted On : July 31st, 2021
Studied at Amity University (2019)

You will be surprised to know that PGDM Dual Country (DCP) and regular PGDM courses are similar with the only difference being that PGDM DC would let you have your 1st year in Dubai. My sister recently completed her DC course, and here are some of the similarities and differences between both the courses you need to know before opting for this course:

  • For both DCP and PGDM, the subjects are the same however the books differ by being global and Indian editions respectively.
  • In DCP, you have to take the initiative for projects, competitions, and events individually. Whereas, in PGDM, you will get assisted by committees.
  • The infrastructure of IMT Ghaziabad is brilliant and offers better and unique campus life, however, the fees are also a lot.
  • You will see almost no difference in placements of either course as they are conducted in Ghaziabad in the 2nd year.
  • There is also no difference in the selection process for the interviews.
  • Finding a summer placement while belonging to DCP might be challenging.

All in all, DCP is arguably a good course for business enthusiasts. However, every great thing comes with a cost. This course is a bit expensive. If you feel that placements are the ultimate goal for you, pursuing regular PGDM from IMT Ghaziabad would do. But if you see your scope in global business and budget is not a constraint for you, go for DCP without a second thought.

Are transcripts from IMT Ghaziabad accepted by ECA for Canada immigration?

SS
Sonia Singh Posted On : July 31st, 2021
Studies MBA (HRM) at IMT Ghaziabad

Yes, IMT Ghaziabad transcripts are accepted by ECA for Canadian immigration. However, the procedure is slightly slower than anticipated, and can easily take up to a couple of months before finally giving it out. You might also have to pay regular visits to your university for verification.

You can send a letter to the IMT management asking them to send a stamped and sealed copy of your transcript to your specified address. After that, forward the copy to WES Canada directly, without hindering their regulation by opening the stamped and sealed envelope.

You might have to hire a third-party service provider so as to speed this process up. Recently, one of my friends came across a service provider and they completed the work within a provided ETA date and mailed the documentation straight ahead to WES.

Other than that, you should also have a UG degree since that will help you achieve several points in the CRS.

What is asked in critical thinking and GE at IMT Ghaziabad?

AV
Ashmita Verma Posted On : February 4th, 2022
studied at Institute of Management Technology, Ghaziabad

IMT Ghaziabad shortlists students based on their cumulative weighted average of academic scores, work experience (if any), and score obtained in CT-GE-PI, i.e. Critical Thinking-Group Excercise-Personal Interview. 

From a few years back, IMT Ghaziabad adopted a slightly different approach regarding its selection procedure. Here is a brief insight into it. 

Critical Thinking: 

The process starts with the critical thinking step. You will be given a topic, which is socially relevant and debatable. You will need to present your argument for or against it. This test aims to evaluate critical thinking, creativity, and written communication skills. 

You may get a topic like - ‘National Anthem in cinema hall is not a real test of patriotism’.

Group Excercise: 

In this exercise, you will be divided into small groups. Each group is given a problem to solve or a task to perform. You need to perform the exercise by discussing it with your group members. They often provide props or kits for the task. 

Example - Your group can be asked about the Govt. of India to design a new INR 1000 rupee currency note that would come into circulation later. Design the currency note by discussing your ideas. The various elements of design for the new currency note should have the contributions of each person. 

GE aims to evaluate innovative thinking, leadership potential, interpersonal skills, communication, attitude. 

The next step in the selection process is the personal interview. In the PI round, students are evaluated on their academics, versatility, communication skills, as well as values, and maturity.

You may want to consider MDI Gurgaon over IMT Ghaziabad. MDI offers superior course content, faculty involvement, and in-class experience. Additionally, MDI has a stronger alumni base and better placement record, which is crucial in today's competitive job market.

Recruiters also view MDI as comparable to the IIMs, making it a more reputable brand in the industry. This is especially important when you are competing against a large pool of candidates for that coveted job.

When it comes to placement packages, MDI outperforms IMT. The average and median packages offered during IMT Ghaziabad PGDM placements in 2023 were INR 17.35 LPA and INR 16.0 LPA, respectively.
