IIM Bangalore - Indian Institute of Management Bannerghatta Road Answered Questions

Hi Alen,
MBA has great opportunities and wide scope. First thing is that you need to identify your area of interest in which you would like to make your career. Go for MS as they have MBA in IT and systems or else you can go for PGDM (Operations, HR, Marketing, and Finance). Good Luck Mate.

Hi Harshita,
Congratulations on scoring 97 Percentile in CAT. I would say that there are chances for you to get a call. Also you have a strong score in past academic years. Hope for the best and also try out for other institutes along with IIM. Good Luck Mate.

Hi Ansh,
To get through any IIM you need to appear for CAT. Only if you score distinctively high I. e. around 96 percentile (Depends on year on year) you might stand a chance to get a call from them. Aim to score 98-99 percentile. Also they would check your academics throughout and you need to meet up to their criteria to get through the interview and GD rounds. Start studying hard and smart and appear as many Mocks as you can. Also refer to various authors and apply for test series at different places. As they say the more, the merrier. Good Luck Mate.

MBA is a good option after B.Tech as it generates a lot of job opportunities for an engineer in several fields related to his/her stream. Pursuing MBA from reputed college is important otherwise you may suffer for good placement. Now, it's up to you if you have interest in MBA then go for it. It will surely help you.
Good luck.

Speaking frankly, I am doing my MBA and went through the same phase. There is no chance that you get into IIMs if you are from general category. Their first criteria is 90+ in academics and graduation. Over it, you have to score 97-99 percentile in CAT. You can get any other good college if you don't make to IIMs, what matters the most is things you learn in those 2 years.
