The campus is a 40-year-old campus, new wings are built. During my time a whole new hostel block was inaguarted. had lifts and the infrastructure of the new block was very very good. Has a good canteen and does have a good infrastructure with the space they have.
Case-based study pattern is used. You have to read the case and come to the class or else you won't be allowed to sit. Everyone participates in discussion willingly and the classroom has a really positive and healthy environment.
Placements are pretty good. Our batch of 500 plus got placed in a record time of 17 days. I think roles offered can be better, less of corporate giants like Marico, and new age startups like Zomato came to campus.
Fairly good. you will more or less get a minimum of the package that you paid your tuition fees to.
Very very good. IMT gives you the freedom to do what you want and see, and explore yourself.
Better than Baby iim's or iim tag. A rich history with unique experiences awaits you.
Yes, the space are well clean and the overall facility is provided with utmost satisfaction and due diligence. All the basis requirements and infrastructure are available with best quality being provided.
The quality for PGDM finance which i m studing is really appreciated and never thought of studing with such high quality infrastructure facility which is required for the course . Yes the study of PGDM finance makes job ready as this course provides the knowledge which makes me stand out of queue.
The placement percentage is above 90 which is really appreciated that students studing with so much of hard work gets job ready in hand even before completing the degree this keeps students motivated and make them ready for future endeavours.

The infrastructure of the college is good and well maintained. All basic facilities that are required are present in the campus. The living spaces are regularly cleaned and the food is also decent in comparison.
The college is academically sound and the curriculum followed is very good for the overall development of the students. All the case studies are mostly based on the recent developments in the field of management.
The summer placements even during the pandemic era has been satisfactory. The placement process has been well supportive even during this era and also the number of opportunities that came in were good enough.
We are more or less getting what we are paying for at the end of two years.
The main highlight of this college.
The college provides an amazing infrastructure for all the activities that you can think so, including academics, stay, sports, library, knowledge classes, extra curricular activities, fun, hangout, food etc
The processor are very trained and highly educated in their respective fields and knowledge. The concept of visiting facilities from renowned colleges all over the world makes it even more enriching and knowledgeable
The placement happens in sessions and we have an amazing record of 100% placements, each year, the students are well trained and equipped for such an process and have top renowned companies visiting the campus
The cost for the entire course boils down to 18L but the entire cost can be recovered in 1 year due to placement in big and renowned companies, the knife if exposure that you get in this college is totally worth it

Yeah, it does have the necessary infrastructure for all the students. The only problem which I see is the hostel facility for 1st-year students. 1st-year students do not have space to stay on the campus, they will have to stay in CDL, which is 3 km far from the main campus of IMT. Only in the second year, we can go to the main campus
Teaching very good and quite professional teachers are there with relevant industry experience. Also, many guest lectures happen during 2 years of MBA, where many industry specialists come to teach us!
For marketing, the placement opportunities are in huge numbers. More than 150 companies visit on campus from the Marketing domain, but the average package less as compared to similar ranked colleges like MDI, SIBM, XIMB, and all. Also, placements are not so good in the finance domain. Besides placement committee always has some upper hand in the placements, where they use a lot of illegal means to get their committee members placed in high profile companies.
ROI factor might not be seen in the initial few years, but the kind of opportunities that we get at the campus has got a long-term growth perspective. The chances of getting a good hike, good company switch, and onsite opportunity is way too high. Also, a large network of alumni always help in this process
Campus life is great, especially the nightlife. Not many restrictions are there, free flow is there for everyone, even at night. You can go to any corner of the college at any point in time. And a lot of case competition opportunities are there on the campus, which make your campus life way too better.
I have already provided my experience in a detailed format via previous questions that have been asked. It was a good experience overall, I enjoyed it. Do come to IMT, Ghaziabad, if your opportunistic person!
The college is great. There is all the necessary infrastructure. Amazing campus. Clean hostel rooms. Great mess. Lots of sports and activities are provided. Separate hostels for boy and girls and safety is ensured at all times.
Quality education is provided. Campus has great facilities. Amazing classrooms . Highly equipped. Amazing databases are provided. Bloomberg terminal is also provided. Great faculty and subject choices.
Some great and renowned companies and brands visit the institution. Averages for both summer internship and final placements are great and at par with some great business schools in the country. Definitely recommended
Definitely value for money
Amazing campus life
One of the best business schools
Yes, the college campus had all the necessary infrastructure, facilities and equipment like medical services, sports activities, canteen services, lodging services, etc. The classrooms and the campus was very neat and clean which is very important.
Yes, the course material was updated one and it was practical oriented as well. The quality of teaching is also good. They gave us assigments and which can really help to get the practical insights in the industry.
Around 60% of students were placed and the average salary offered was around Rs. 6 Lakhs and the highest package offered was of Rs. 10 Lakhs. I was talking about IMT CDL GHAZIABAD not the regular one which is in Raj Nagar, GHAZIABAD.
It's around Rs. 28000 per semester as there were four semesters. I was talking about IMT CDL GHAZIABAD.
Anyone can find the location easily. Yes, it is safe and also handle the emergencies if any. I was talking about IMT CDL GHAZIABAD.
The facilities are pretty well rounded and we'll maintained. The library is open for 24/7 with lots of books material to read. Rooms are air conditioned. College occupy large space in city and also the whole campus have WiFi facility.
Our college offers specialization in areas like finance , marketing , operations , business analytics and in human resources management. I opted for marketing field .The exams were conducted at the end of semester.
Placement of our college is very good . Lots of big companies like amazon , , HCL , HDFC bank visit here for placement. The highest package offered is upto 22 lack. Internships are also provided to all the students
The grand total fees for PGDM course is 17.5 lakhs , that includes tution fees , admission fees and other fees . As it is 1 tier college with good and easy returns for the students making it a good state of return on investment.
Campus life is awesome. We had sports events , several cultural events , etc . There are many types of clubs to join in our college which organised different programs . College also organised workshops and seminars frequently.
None as of such as the course covers the entire things and the college provides ample of opportunities for the students to learn and grow giving them chance to understand the industry and then practically applying in that.
More hostels needed to fit in the students at CDL from the first year. More gaming and extra co-curricular spaces needed. The ground gets waterlogged easily. No personal toilets. Working AC is a pro with spacious rooms.
A couple of very good faculty, rest not good. More faculties from industry should be engaged. Elkana and Jishnu sir are god level. A couple of good visiting faculty like Prantosh Banerjee makes it worth.
good if you are among top 20%. Few good companies with high packages and as batch size is large its a lot of competition to get into them. Maintain good academic records. very poor for operations student with few companies.
Based on ROI not very good, If you get good placement its worth it else it can cause a dent in your pocket. Its comparable to other private B schools. Slowly it is being increased though which might create issues for deserving students
Amazing, full of activities. lots of clubs and events happening all round the year. Helps students get to network and build strong CVs. Senior mentorship is very good and parties or social gatherings happen a lot.

Hello aspirant,
CAT does not directly send your scores to individual institutes.
After you take the CAT exam, you will receive your scorecard from CAT. This scorecard will contain your overall score, sectional scores, and percentile rank.
You will need to update your CAT score on the individual institute portals yourself. Each institute has its own application process, and you will typically need to upload your CAT scorecard to their portal. This allows them to evaluate your application based on your CAT performance.
Therefore, it is important to be prepared to update your CAT score on multiple institute portals after receiving your scorecard.
I hope this information helps you.
