Globsyn Business School is one of the top B-Schools in eastern India with a track record of 15+ years. It offers AICTE approved full-time PGDM programme, which is accredited to NBA and Association of Indian Universities (AIU). As far as I know only 5-6% business schools in India are accredited by National Board of Accreditation or NBA. NBA is one of the two major bodies responsible for accreditation of higher education institutions in India, along with the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). This proves that the quality of education in Globsyn is certainly among the best in the country. It has an alumni base of 3000+ who are working world-wide in different top-level organizations. With Globsyns AIU accredited PGDM you can opt for further higher studies in both India and aboard. It also gives you an option to opt for jobs in government or PSU sectors. As far as placement is concerned leading organizations regularly recruit from Globsyn. The list of recruiters include Amazon, Nestle, Cadbury, ITC, Parle, Reckitt Benckiser, HDFC Bank, Axis Bank, Asian Paints, Pantaloons, Berger Paints, Dabur, PwC, Deloitte, Shoppers Stop, Spencers, etc. On the other hand, BIBS programs are not AICTE accredited. It provides MBA in distance mode. Compared to 8 acre campus of Globsyn, BIBS offers very limited infrastructure. These points are very important for your future. I would recommend you to go for Globsyn Business School as the facility and exposure that you are going to get will be much better than any other private business school in Kolkata. Best wishes for your future. Go for Globsyn.

Even your co-curricular activities and academic background play a pivotal role in your selection process. Make sure you mention your co-curricular activities and any achievements related to your academics.

Praxis Business School is now AICTE approved college and it no longer conducts Praxis Admission Test and accepts scores of CAT CMAT ATMA. Our expected cut-off score for CAT would be 70 percentile and above. We give 20 percent weightage to CAT XAT CMAT scores and give importance to co-curricular activities and academic background. Though you can be shortlisted if you have a strong academic background (10th,12th, and graduation) it's difficult to get selected for Praxis Business School since your CAT percentile is low.
