Is it worth joining SIBM Nagpur for MBA??

Hello Anurag,

It depends actually

.
If you had no calls from any other tier-1 management institute, then yes I would definitely say it is worth joining. I would definitely recommend it over the likes of SCMHRD, IMT G, XIMB and the lot. I think if at all SIBM Pune can be considered to be a tier-2 management institute, it leads the pack. However, if new IIMs give you call, you should not let go of that opportunity.
The final placements for the Class of 2018 were not that bad, to be honest. The average placement stood at over 16 LPA, and the top-100 received an average of 20 LPA. That’s not too bad if you try and ignore the inflated figures and other factors. Also, if you aim to be a Consultant at a top firm (McK, BCG and the lot), that won’t be possible at SIBM. However, if FMCG is where your interests lie, then SIBM Pune is the place for you.
The batch size is relatively small, and the Class of 2020 has an approximate batch size of 195 students (not verified), which is lower than top-ranked colleges like FMS, and the IIMs. There is a lucrative foreign exchange programme as well (which I am assuming is based on your academic performance).

Finally, don’t take my word for it. Do your own research and take decision.

Good luck

Hi Anurag,

SIBM Nagpur has been established only this year and will have its first batch commencing from 1st July. So, the situation becomes something we aren't very sure off. With the Symbiosis tag, the college can do great in terms of placement. They do have good infrastructure and facilities and learned faculty. However, if you have an option to choose from another college with substantial past records, it is always better to go for such options from which we have a clear cut idea.

Hope this helps. All the best.
