Dear Yazhini,
The difference is not much in terms of placement record as you compare the average salaries across the schools. But the decisive factors are the ROI on your fee payment. Check on that aspect by comparing the fee structure and mapping it to your goals in the end. Chennai is a strategic location for most of the opportunities. SSN fee structure and SSN strategic location could be evaluated. I advise that you visit all the three schools and make an informed choice.

Congrats that you completed B.E this year. 60 direct admission seats come under 'TSM Quota' seats for MBA in TSM. Your B.E marks are not looked into and any entrance exam's marks will confirm your skill set to pursue MBA. So MBA colleges expect entrance exam marks like CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT.

You have a very good score so it's your choice between TSM and PSGIM. To be frank Placement in PSGIM is better than TSM, as you have international opportunities in PSGIM. Whereas TSM gives you placement into companies for the intermediate level of the organisation structure.

Hostel in TSM is good and is surely different from other college hostels and it is located near to college entrance, classes and mess. The rooms are of double and single occupancy, it has good ventilation facility and separate cupboards. You have to buy a safe lock with key for both the room and your cupboard. Better get 2 or more keys as if you lost one, you could use the other. Even if you lose the key, there will be staff that will help to force open the door. Safety and Comfort will be above expectations. There is a policy to be present in the hostel premises after 21:30.

For MBA: TANCET cleared students will be along with you in the courses, 2 months internship period, same hostel facilities and mess food.
But PGDM offers one step more than MMB course, so is the fee.
For PGDM: Workeds, Graduates from a variety of fields will be there for to give you a more sweeter exposure of the industry environment, Along with +2 extra industrial visits, + extra guest lectures and more quality staff(Staff from Northern parts of India, so you are compelled to converse in English to clarify doubts) to guide you in the course.
But ultimately choice is in your hands, an effective manager works efficiently in any situations. (A bad workman never blames his tools, he consistently sharpens his [Skills])
