Remarks

BBA and marketing always been my interests and HV desai was an accidental choice to be honest. But now its a family here. My college staff and my classmates have helped me throughout the year, me being a science background student. That didnt matter here at HV Desai, all are treated equally.

Course Curriculum Overview

All have been managed well. But not everything is perfect, there are loopholes in this factors. Addressing them is not necessary, the faculty takes pretty good care of those things. Also the academics and curriculum are too interesting.

Class Size: 88Course Fees: INR 32600 per year

Placement Experience

3.5

SDA Bocconi Asia Center, IMB ( International Masters in Business)

Reviewed on May 3, 2020

Remarks:

I had honestly applied in only a selected number of colleges, as I was doing really well in my coaching and was always among the top 2. Since, I was expecting a lot from myself, it created performance pressure and I went blank during the actual CAT examination. So SDA bocconi was among the top 2 options that I had. It is less than a decade old and has still managed to provide good placements. The most fascinating part is the entire semester in Bocconi,Milan which is the 21st best college in the world and 7th in Europe. I also spoke to many aluminis and hardly got to hear anything that will stop me from taking admission in SDA bocconi. Plus, the advantage of the college being in a city like Mumbai has it's own advantages.

Remarks:

College management is highly supportive of student needs. The management listens to student issues and tries to solve it with proper thinking and strategy. The college and the composition, though is extremely dynamic and diverse, students live together peacefully in harmony, supporting and helping each other whenever needed. Though being it's initial stages of setup, the college faces certain issues with placements and internships, but slowly with every batchs learnings, these are also being cured. This ensures that students are always on their toes and ready to take on challenges.
