Going by last years trends, you should be able to get FS, through wait list if not directly through counseling itself. Please do come to counseling.

Just come with a fresh mind and a willingness to learn. For finance, you can go through sites like investopedia to get an idiea of what finance is all about.

A rudimentary knowledge of finance terms may prove useful. Go through sites like investopedia for the same. Other than that, you can relax. It's important to enter the program with a fresh mind. Everything that you need will be taught tp you in the course.

We have a quota for NRIs (3 seats) within PGDM Core. Moreover, there is also a supernumerary quota of 6 seats each fot indians living in the gulf region and Indians of Foreign origins. Howeve, there is no management quota as such.

RM students are allowed to sit for all marketing profiles. As such, companies like nestle, sap, google, Accenture, hul etc. come for recruitment. The packages offered vary between 8 to 16 lakhs.

You should be able to get RM, Communications and FS through counseling. However, you may be able to crack IB through the waitlist. This will become clearer only after counseling, when you get your waitlist number. Last year, IB closed around 800.

Chances of FS are slim, as it closed around 1500 last year. However, as the procedure has changed this year, even i cannot say with certainty. I suggest you attend counseling and get yourself wait listed for the course. We will have a better idea based on your waitlist number.

As part of RM, you will essentially be a marketing student. As such, you will be allowed to sit for all marketing profiles which the college gets like Business development, b2b sales, product management, deputy manager etc. Moreover, as the course is oriented towards the retail sector, it may give you an edge if a retail company comes for recruitment.

You have a great chance of getting either Comm or RM. Communications, as a course, is more oriented towards the advertising sector. So more focus will be on brand creation, brand management etc. However, it is still a marketing course and you will be allowed to sit for all marketing profiles on offer. Companies themselves do not differentiate between courses and will select your only the best, irrespective of the course.
