We do not calculate details of placement for individual streams. The average package this year was Rs 9.4 lacs across all branches, including finance. We had quite a few banks and other financial institutions hiring for finance this year. As far as Tapmi goes, it is certainly good for finance, but I would put it in the same league as Somaiya. However, Somaiya definitely has a location advantage, being in the heart of the financial capital of India.

The placements have been very good this year. The highest package offered was Rs 21 lac, while the lowest has been around 6 lacs. The average package has been around 9.4 lacs. As for the GD, just read one newspaper daily, especially the editorial page. This will help you form an opinion about various topics. Also try going through the business news. For the PI, be thorough with what you've written in your candidate profile form and sop, especially your hobbies and interests. Be sincere about what you're saying. That should be enough.

The cutoff for CMAT was 96 percentile this year. The cutoff for CET last year was 98.2 percentile (Maharashtra State), 99.81 percentile (OMS seats) and 94.8 percentile for Gujrati Language Minority seats. You can expect the cutoffs to remain approximately similar.

While both institutes are at par regarding curriculum and placements, SIMSR has two distinct advantages: ROI and Location. SIMSR has always maintained low fees, which enables the students to get good ROI, as the placement packages are similar to those in TAPMI. Location plays an important role in the deciding the kind of guest speakers and peers a college can attract. Being in the heart of Mumbai, SIMSR is in a position to call industry leaders to interact with the students. Moreover, it also helps in interacting with other top colleges via participation in various events. This factor also enables students to bag live projects to enhan

There is no such minimum cutoff to clear the paper. For SIMSR, the cutoff was 98.2 percentile for students of Maharastrian domicile, and 99.91 percentile for students domiciled outside Maharashtra.

The main difference between the two programs is that the PGDM program is fully autonomous, which gives much more flexibility in terms of curriculum and activities. Moreover, you have courses in PGDM which offer specialization right from first year, such as Retail Management and Financial Services. The placements are common for both PGDM and MMS. The average package this year was 9.4 lacs.

No, we don't. We accept CAT, XAT and CMAT for the PGDM Program. We do accept CET for MMS, for which you can apply through DTE.
