Can I convert to FMS Delhi if I score 100 percentile in CAT and do really well in the Extempore and PI?

TS
Tanveer Singh Posted On : January 10th, 2023
MBA in Management, Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (Graduated 2020)

If you got a perfect score of 100 percentile on the CAT, you're almost there. The reason for this is that FMS has set a very high weightage of 85% for the CAT score in the final selection, so a 100 percentile means you don't need to worry about the other criteria.
However, this 85% does not take your CAT percentile into account. Rather, it considers your CAT scores (not percentile) with the following modifications (the figures represent the weightage given to the specific section):

WEIGHTAGE

VARC

40%

DI/LR

This gives you your overall score. Additional 5 points are awarded to female candidates who appear for the interview when calculating the composite score. 

The following are the weightage in the final section of FMS admission 2023:

RJ

Studied at Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad

Yes, girls and boys are allowed to stay in each other’s hostel in IIM Ahmedabad. The hostels are not common but you can visit the opposite gender hostels anytime. 

This relaxation is because of group studies and assignments which require students in the same group to spend time together in a room.

Which one is better for study in Canada? York University or Humber college? take into consideration Humber college is much cheaper in tuition fees

PM
Peter McDonald Posted On : January 13th, 2021
Studied at Glendon College, York University

As both are good colleges, there is no right answer to this question. Humber College ranks #20 and is among the Top 50 Research Colleges in Canada. It is also a lot cheaper if you compare a Humbler diploma and a York degree. If you are comparing equivalent credentials, there might not be a difference at all. A quick check online shows York's domestic undergrad fee to be $7,743. At Humber, a degree is $7,737.84. So tuition wise, there is not too much difference.

Humber College also provides 28 undergraduate courses whereas York university has a staggering 106. No. Of scholarships provided by Humber and York is 25 and 27 respectively.

As far as degrees are concerned, York would be better known as a degree-granting institution. However, others might value the more practical content of a degree from a community college (technically, Humber is now an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning, but few people know that and still fewer could explain the significance).

Here’s a factual comparison between the two:

Content Humber College York University
Average Attendance Cost $12,924 $24,312
Acceptance Rate 28.4% 50.5%
Student Faculty Ratio 98:1 37:1
Exam Score(MIN) IELTS-6 PTE-60 TOEFL-84 GMAT-550 IELTS-6.5 TOEFL-80

Other factors would include the actual program to be studied (perhaps one is better than the other), the locations of the campuses, activities on campus, housing, etc.

After weighing all the pros and cons the student has to make the final decision. Keeping in mind your goals and what you want from your future you have to choose carefully and make the best of the option you choose.

In comparing NITIE, Mumbai and IIM, Lucknow, which one is better in all aspects?

IC
Indranil Chaudhary Posted On : August 16th, 2021
National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2019)

In a simplified way, it is often said that IIM Lucknow is better and a lot of factors are in favor. However, both NITIE and IIM Lucknow have their fair share of advantages. 

  • NITIE is comparably old and has a strong and wide alumni base. And as a student, the alumni base of any college helps immensely. 
  • NITIE has a tag of “Mecca for OPS and SCM”. The students in NITIE get job roles in OPS and SCM which sometimes aren't even offered in the big 3 IIMs as per their alumni. So if you are interested in OPS or SCM then they should opt for NITIE. NITIE is a far better choice for Operations and SCM in terms of the course fee, placements, environment, etc. 

Here is a brief comparison of the two institutes. 

Parameters  NITIE  IIM Lucknow
Average CTC  20 LPA  58 LPA 
Highest CTC  44 LPA  23 LPA 
Major recruiters  EY, IDFC First, ETLI Deloitte, Flipkart, Jio, Amazon 
Course Fee  11.33 lakhs  19.25 lakhs

Else wise, you can go for IIM L.

Which one is better, XIMB or SCMHRD?

SS
Sushant Saraf Posted On : April 23rd, 2021
MBA in Marketing, Symbiosis Centre for Management and Human Resource Development

One of my seniors used to be a student of SCMHRD and he gave an analytical comparison between the two institutions.

Name of the institute

Fees

Average Placements

Size of the batch

SCMHRD

15,45,000 INR

Marketing: 14.70 LPA

HR: 15.3 LPA

240 (180 core+ 40 IM + 20 BA)

XIMB

18,70,000 INR

13-18 LPA

Above 400

In terms of location, SCMHRD is one step ahead of XIMB because the former is closer to Mumbai, the financial capital of India.

In spite of both institutes having an equally strong alumni network but as HR is the strong point of SCMHRD, it edges out XIMB in this regard as well. Marketing is also very strong in SCMHRD.

So, my senior recommended SCMHRD. Consulting is the forte of XIMB. However, both colleges are unique in their own ways.
