Jayati Bose, Posted On : November 10th, 2021
Studied at Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) (2018)

One of my friends studied at St. Joseph College Bangalore. According to him, it is a very green and safe campus. Here are some facts about it:

  • Classes start here at 6:30 AM, this gives time to do internships later in the day.
  • St, Joseph Bangalore is a bit expensive compared to other courses but the global exposure offered is beneficial for your career. 
  • The placements are conducted at the end of the year and various companies recruit students from this campus. 
  • Admission process starts with a written aptitude test followed by an interview. 
  • The hostels in St. Joseph’s College are affordable compared to others. They do not provide food as there are almost 10 food joints around the campus. 
  • The faculty is highly experienced. Most of them are visiting faculty. 

This course gives students a global aspect of accounting. It includes various fields of the business like entrepreneurship and finance specialization. The exam structure is divided equally between end-semester papers, CIAs, and mid-semester papers. Cultural fests and Inter-College competitions are also conducted which provides enough exposure.

Which is better, Bethune College or Vidyasagar College?

RD
Riyanka Dasgupta Posted On : October 30th, 2021
B.Sc in Economics from Bethune College, Kolkata (2018)

I know people from both Bethune College and Vidyasagar College. According to what I heard from them, I will say the former is better. 

  • Bethune is an all-girls college and it is quite strict. If you want good academics with regular classes then Bethune is the right choice.
  • Vidyasagar has union problems too. At Bethune, you won’t have to face such problems as party politics doesn’t exist here. 
  • The faculties and the ambiance of Bethune are great.
  • The facilities offered at the college are good. Both the central and departmental libraries have a good collection of books.
  • There are many extracurricular activities for you to participate in. 

These reasons make Bethune a better option for pursuing your course.

Which college is better for computer science engineering: VIT, Pune or PICT? Which of these colleges promote extra-curricular activities the most?

AG
Akriti Gupta Posted On : October 16th, 2023
lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

PICT is the best option for CSE in Pune followed by VIT Pune. The faculty pool of PICT stands apart from other colleges making it the dream college of many. I once visited a technical project exhibition in PICT and fell in love with the innovative environment of the college.

The cutoffs are usually high for PICT and it accepts only the best crowd. So you will get an amazing experience if you choose PICT over VIT.

What is the minimum percentile for making it to HRM in XLRI (not for getting a call?)

GS
Gaurav Sharma Posted On : April 22nd, 2023
studied at Xavier School of Management

XLRI Jamshedpur is one of the premier management institutes in India, known for its two-year postgraduate management programs - PGDM (Business Management) and PGDM (Human Resource Management).

XLRI accepts scores from multiple entrance exams such as XAT, GMAT, and GRE for admission into its programs. The admission process includes two stages - the first stage involves shortlisting candidates based on their entrance exam scores and profile, and the second stage comprises a written ability test (WAT), group discussion (GD), and personal interview (PI) rounds.

To make it to the HRM program at XLRI, one needs to clear the first stage of the selection process, which involves obtaining a minimum percentile in the entrance exam. The minimum percentile required for the HRM program at XLRI varies each year and depends on various factors such as the number of applicants, the difficulty level of the exam, and the overall performance of the test-takers.

However, based on previous years' trends, candidates generally need to score above 90 percentile in XAT to get shortlisted for XLRI's HRM program. It is important to note that clearing the minimum percentile requirement does not guarantee admission to the program, as the final selection also considers the candidate's profile, work experience, academic performance, and performance in the WAT/GD/PI rounds.

In summary, the minimum percentile required for making it to XLRI's HRM program varies each year and depends on the number of applicants and the overall performance in the entrance exam. Candidates generally need to score above 90 percentile in XAT to get shortlisted for the HRM program.
