Birla Global University - [BGU]: 5 answered questions

Ques
Which B School should I opt for, GL Bajaj Institute of Management & Research (Greater Noida) or PIBM (Pune), or Birla Global University (Bhubaneswar)?

● Top Answer By Ipshita Chaudhuri on 28 Jun 21

Ans
Having talked to multiple students studying in these colleges and based on the interaction I had with them here are some of the insights that might be useful to you: If you want to pursue MBA, go with GJ Bajaj of Management and Research due to location advantage and slightly better branding. All the mentioned colleges are tier 3 colleges so if you want to take admission in any other course, you can go with any of them. Particulars GL Bajaj of Management and Research (Greater Noida) PIBM (Pune) Birla Global University (Bhubaneswar) Placement Rate 85% 99% 97% Highest Package Offered 32 LPA 17 LPA 10.2 LPA Average Package Offered 4.8 LPA 6.5 LPA 7.8 LPA Top Recruiters ICICI Bank, Axis bank, HDFC bank, TCI, Paytm, BATA, OYO, etc Deloitte, Futurism, Elf, XL Dynamics, IFFCO TOKIO, Hettich, S&P Global, etc. TVS, Infosys, Kotak, ITC, HDFC, SBI, Extramarks, etc. You need to introspect and work hard for the MBA entrances this year and aim to get into the top or at least good mid rung institutes. That being said, if you have to take admission this year, no matter what, I would suggest going for GL Bajaj of Management and Research.

Between BIMTECH and BGU, which one is best for BBA and MBA, and how can I join them after completing my 12th?

● Top Answer By Pratik Gandhi on 17 Apr 23

Ans
BIMTECH does not offer BBA and neither MBA, it offers PGDM instead. BGU does not offer BBA as well. But why only these two, you can and you should in fact wait for the 12th result and you might get a better score and get into DU or some better college.
