Entrance Preview

I took CAT & CMAT. I scored 72 percentile in CAT & 85 percentile in CMAT 2016 exam. I opt for SDMIMD, mysore because it has every thing which a world class college should have.

Course Curriculum Overview

Course curriculum of SDMIMD is Updated every year . It follows the books & curriculum of Best b schools of the world like Harvard, Stanford etc. All cases discussed in class are of harvard & curriculum is designed keeping in mind the industry requirements. Here is SDMIMD dual specialisation is there so students get benefit of opting for two specialisation. Marketing, Finance, System,HR, Operations are the specialisations.

SDMIMD and its peaceful life

I had applied to CMS Jain Bangalore, PES university Bangalore and Symbiosys Pune. However with few student feedback from CMS Jain and PES Bangalore I decided not to join them, when it comes to Symbiosys Pune I felt the fee structure is not financially viable for my family we we did not go with student education loan option. I choose SDMIMD comparing all the factors like faculty, placement support and the reviews from alumni students. All the students to be eligible have to complete their 10th, 12th and Undergraduate degree with not less than 60% of marks, work experience will be added advantage....Read More
