For BBA, SCMS Noida is the best college. But like B.Com, after BBA you won’t be eligible for a job.

SCMS Noida is not comparable with SCMS Pune as it is an old institution and has a different level of reputation. Along with that, the students of SCMS Pune have a better peer group than SCMS Noida which affects the environment of SCMS Pune. As there are good students in SCMS Pune, it develops a healthy competition on campus.

SCMS Noida does have a locational advantage as it gives you exposure to Delhi NCR industrial zone. 

If you are considering BBA, you can also keep Christ University as an alternative.

If your waiting list number lies within the first 100 then you have more chances to get into that. Most of the students that get into the first list have a waiting list number below 100.

I have a friend who is an alumnus of SCMS, Pune and she had many classmates who got admission through the 2nd and 3rd list. Most of them had a rank within 150.

Every year SCMS usually publishes a 2nd and 3rd list. Usually, the 2nd and 3rd waiting list comes out by 10 days or a week after the fee payment is done by the first waiting list candidates.

According to the current cutoff trends, you have a good rank and a valid chance to secure admission at SCMS.

It is not hard to get into SCMS Pune. I am listing down a few pointers that might help you secure a good SET score. A score above 115–120 would be quite sufficient and even can help you with the preparation for the interview.

  • You can be asked to speak about yourself, your hometown, your education, and qualifications, etc.
  • You can even be asked some questions based on your 12th curriculum, general knowledge such as ministers, presidents, etc.
  • You can prepare a few Good essays for the WAT - Writing ability test.

To be honest, many of my friends have recently graduated from SCMS Pune. They say their interviews were pretty basic. The interviewer asked them about their hometown and the different establishments, factories, and industries operated there, such as the textile industry, diamond industry, etc.

Finally, I would like to advise you don't panic, be confident, speak on point and stick to the specifics.
