Academics

The curriculum at K J Somaiya Institute of Management is designed to offer a strong foundation in core management subjects—Marketing, Finance, Operations, and HR—while also incorporating newer domains like Analytics and Digital Business. Professors often blend theory with practical case studies, which helps bridge the gap between textbooks and real-world scenarios. Many faculty members have extensive industry experience, bringing relevant insights and best practices into classroom discussions. Occasionally, I wish there were even more live projects or collaborations with corporates to deepen that industry interface

SIMSR, Mumbai, is a good place to study.

I got 74.65 percentile in XAT . I belong to OBC category. can i apply in KJ Somaiya and welingkar institute for HR specialization. is their any girls quota in these colleges ?

KJ Somaiya requires a minimum of 85 percentile for both CAT and XAT. There's no different cutoff for different categories so anyone who wants to apply for the college has to score a minimum of 85 percentile. But you can definitely apply for Welingkar Mumbai and Bangalore campuses as the shortlisting for PGDM HCM is completely profile based. The fees for Welingkar is nearly 11 lakhs and the average compensation package offered for Human Resources is 6-7 lakhs. The last date to apply for Welingkar is 14th February 2020. But you have a decent score so you should check some other good colleges also like

XIME Bangalore (fees = 10 lakhs)
XISS Ranchi (8 lakhs)
Praxis Kolkata (4.4 lakhs)
Great Lakes Gurgaon (11.76 lakhs)
IMT Hyderabad (12 lakhs)
NL Dalmia Mumbai (9.3 lakhs)
SIES Mumbai (7.9 lakhs)
NDIM New Delhi (9.3 lakhs)

All of them are decent colleges in terms of both academics and placements and you can easily get an average compensation package of around 6-7 lakhs.

And if you want to pursue Human Resource Management and build a good career in that then XISS would be a great option which will provide you great returns on investment. The average compensation package offered for HR is nearly 9-10 lakhs.

Good Luck

I have 82.05 percentile in XAT Class X - 92.6 Class XII - 87.4 BE - 83.1 Work Ex - 3+ Do I have chance to get a call from KJ Somaiya

You have a pretty decent XAT percentile but KJ Somaiya Institute of Management Studies and Research requires a minimum of 85 percentile in both CAT and XAT exams. The Institute considers only the overall percentile. So it may be a little difficult for you to get a call. But you can still get some very good colleges with your XAT scores like

IIFM Bhopal
XIME Bangalore
IFMR Chennai
IMT Nagpur and Hyderabad
Prin LN Welingkar Institute of Management Development and Research
Christ University Bangalore
Great Lakes Gurgaon and others.

These colleges will also offer you good placement opportunities and good academics and you must try to attend as many interview processes as possible to get enough options to choose from.

Good Luck
