Question 7

Which place is better for an MBA, NIT Trichy or BHU?

Accepted Answer

Having known some people studying in both these institutes, I can say that BHU is a better university than NIT Trichy. NIT Trichy considers the CAT score to select the candidates. Here, the students from different states enjoy the 50% quota for MBA admission. NITs are engineering-oriented and you might have less exposure in terms of management studies. IM (FMS) Banaras Hindu University also enrolls students with a good CAT score. Combined merit is formed for the students of the MBA and MBA (IB) program. The merit includes:- Written Test (CAT Conducted by IIM) - 50% Academic Records - 20% Group Discussion and Interview (Conducted by FMS BHU) - 30% BHU&rsquo;s major recruiters include -Infosys, Wipro, Tata Consultancy, Federal Bank, Ansal API, IDBI Bank, Pantaloons, etc. Categories MBA at NIT Trichy MBA at BHU Course Fee 2.89 lakhs 1.5 lakhs Highest CTC 12 LPA 12-16 LPA Average CTC 8 LPA 8-10 LPA Recruiting Companies HSBC, American Express, ITC, Asian Paints, etc. Aditya Birla, Wipro, IDBI Bank, Reliance, etc. A total number of 38 companies visited and a total of 119 students were placed from campus. Thus, FMS BHU is quite prominent compared to NIT Trichy.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Placements for FMS BHU are quite impressive. It added one of the prominent financial institutions of India i.e. Reserve Bank of India in its recruitment list in the recent past. Moreover, many students got a chance to get recruited in the top international company and organizations including research & consulting firms such as iCRM. The job profiles offered were diverse, i.e. encompassing Corporate Finance, Equity Research, Investment Banking, Marketing, Sales and Distribution, Supply Chain Management, Business Consulting, IT consulting, Agri-Business, Industrial Relations, and Corporate HR.

Question 9

Can you share the FMS BHU GD PI experience in detail?

Accepted Answer

Two years back my brother performed in the GD and cleared the PI round. Here is his experience in brief. GD: In the GD, the topic was &ldquo; Democracy benefits only the people with power &ldquo; At that moment there were about 10 other people including my brother, they all had 1 minute to think on the topic, followed by discussion and summarise in points. Everyone had different points to talk about. After the discussion, 1 min for summarizing was given to each individual. PI: PI Started with the extempore. There was a panel of 5 members. The first question they asked my brother was the general intro about himself. After the introduction, one of the panel members starts off with the extempore topic. Extempore Topic: In a rat race even if you win you are only a rat. In the PI round, they ask multiple other questions like hobbies, movie interests, job profile and all, mostly general questions.

Question 10

Is FMS BHU worth joining? If yes, what are the positives and negatives?

Accepted Answer

FMS BHU is a Central Government university, and they lack proper quality classrooms, ambiance, and all. You can expect to get a proper MBA (rather than a PGDM, which is what most top-rated B schools offer) with an average package of 6 to 7 lakhs per annum by paying an overall fee of 1.6 lakhs for both two years (including hostel rent plus food equivalent). Here are the recent placement statistics for the institute, in brief. Highest CTC 18 LPA No of companies visited 25+ No of placement offers 140+ No of placements 126 Major recruiters Infosys, IDBI Bank, Wipro, IBM, etc. It is the cheapest when compared to other top-rated B schools where you spend around 16 lakhs plus interest on loans, and you get a package of 10 to 12 lakhs. Even if you earn well after getting placed, the majority of your salary will go to the repayment of the loan. Most of the banks want students to take loans so that they become their useful mode of income.

Question 11

Which is better, IMI Bhubaneswar or FMS, BHU?

Accepted Answer

My brother has studied at IMI Bhubaneswar and its the best because of its brand value. It is a new and upcoming institute with IMI Delhi&rsquo;s reputation and brand value. The following points explain a brief overview of the institutes: If you compare the fees, FMS BHU will be the winner by a good margin. When it comes to the average placement data, youll find that it is the same as that of CAT cutoffs. The class profile will be as good due to rigorous entrance processes and scores. You can find a better crowd at IMI because it might have more polished candidates. Now, the difference to be highlighted in the degree is that FMS BHU will give you an MBA degree whereas, IMI will give you a PGDM degree; although this is not a huge difference you might choose an MBA over a PGDM program. So, finally, the choice lies with you because both institutes are quite similar in academics, facilities, and opportunities. It will definitely not create a huge impact if you choose one over the other.

Question 12

Which is better, FMS (BHU), UBS (Chandigarh) or DSM (DTU)?

Accepted Answer

I talked to a few of the students from these institutes and based on the reviews I got from them, I will say the preference order for most of the applicants is somewhat like the following. UBS (Chandigarh) > DSM (DTU) > FMS (BHU) Here is a brief highlight of the institutes. Institute UBS, Chandigarh DSM DTU FMS BHU Average CTC 9.44 LPA 5.5 LPA 6-7 LPA Highest CTC 55 LPA 18 LPA 15 LPA Major recruiters American Express, HSBC, Tolaram TCS, Outlook Group, KPMG IDBI Bank, Coal India, ICICI Bank Course fee 52,295 3.96 lakhs 2.42 lakhs Here are some of the parameters based on which you should judge these institutes. The most important thing you need to consider while deciding on a management institute is the faculty, alumni base, industry orientation of curriculum, and placements. The next important factor is the location of the institute and its connectivity from your place. Total number and recognition of the visiting faculty. Judging by all these factors, I will say that you should prefer UBS Chandigarh.

Question 13

Is FMS BHU good for Finance?

Accepted Answer

Before we get into a college, we normally do prior research on various factors that we require in the desired course. Generally, it is about placements, packages, and corporate exposure. And, if you are assuming to find all of that in FMS BHU, you are wrong! But then, if you are looking for a place with some spiritual retreat and carrying a degree just for the sake of carrying one without bringing out any benefit- FMS BHU would welcome you with open arms! Some people beg to differ- which I am assuming is because they must have been placed in good company. But then, if you have prior work experience, carry a strong and valuable work ethic with a good educational convent background, FMS BHU should not be considered. FMS BHU is ranked similar to what a mediocre MBA college is. Save your time by not going for this. Not choosing FMS BHU can save your career from being wasted. Because its better to test your luck in some betting app than choosing this institute as your place to study. The profiles that the companies show up are in the name of sales, but you would beg to differ when you observe companies like Berger Paints, Kent RO, Gyan Dairy, etc. show up. They offer an average package of 2.4-5 LPA. The batch of my friends is facing this issue as they have no other option left. All in all, I would not recommend FMS BHU at all.

Question 14

Does FMS BHU take sectional cutoff?

Accepted Answer

No, FMS - BHU does not consider sectional cut-offs. Usually, the cut-off of the general category ranges from 82 to 85 percentile. This is the required criteria for any candidate to receive a GD-PI call. However, the cut off required is as mentioned below, Courses General (Criteria) MBA Agribusiness 85 MBA International Business 85 IMS BHU (which technically was known as FMS earlier) generally accepts CAT score for admission purposes. If you are considering section-wise, then 80 percentile or above can increase your chances of selection after the GD or the interview session.

Accepted Answer
