IIM Ahmedabad - Indian Institute of Management Vastrapur Answered Questions

Hi,
It does not really matter. But, having said that, an undergraduate degree in computer science may give you an upper hand in product management and tech management roles.
The specialization that you choose in your MBA and the subjects you study are the main factors that can land you in your preferred job.
Thanks.

Hi Shubamdange,
The percentile varies from year to year as the selection criteria vary. IIMs look for overall performance and potential of a candidate apart from academics and percentile, there is a significant shift in the selection process from academic-centric to overall performance and capabilities of the students. Having said that, it is always good to have a high percentile to strengthen your chances.
All the best.

Hi,
If you want to have a career in Agri related sectors, then specialisation in Agri-business managements helps.
You can opt for a general MBA programme if you are okay to pursue a career in other sectors and fields of specialisation.
MBA from a very good college always gives you an upper hand. I would suggest you to score well in CAT and then apply for MBA programme.
Thanks.

Hi Kashish,
It 's hard to answer which is better as you did not mention which college are you comparing with. Once you get into IIMA, you need not worry about placements. Banks would be waiting for you to give the loan, I still remember my first day in college when many bank managers and their staff approached my parents and me, asking us to take the loan from their bank with minimal procedure and documentation.
