Hello,


See, this is big debate because both the colleges are world class and its hard to differentiate between them.So, you will have to decide.
Doon business school is considered better than UPES in terms of ROI and course fees, academics and faculty members are also good.
But, also on the other hand UPES is better in terms of placements, curriculum and infrastructure.
So, there is a cut throat competition between both these college there is no strong reason to consider one of them as second best.

I hope this helps.

GBS Kolkata MAT cut off for mba is approx 75%+.

The average package (100% placements) of GSB is 5.97 lacs and highest is 16 lacs while of Doon is 5.20 lacs average and highest being 17 lacs. In doon placements are good for marketing.

Shubhadeep, Doon Business School accepts a score of 400+ in MAT for admission. Although MAT score is a qualifying criteria. You will have further rounds- group discussion and personal interview. The final admission is done on the basis of your performance in GD, PI as well as your MAT score. So yes, according to your composite score, you can get a call for the next rounds. Although the final admission will be given only after you qualify your GD and PI rounds. Hope it helps.

Hello!

Although it is advisable to take a drop, prepare well of mba entrances and get admission in top b schools of india, but if you cannot afford to take a drop then i would say that doon b school is okayish. Better go for ndim delhi, itm navi mumbai, bimm pune, christ University banglore, jims rohini.

Tution fees can go upto 7.5 lacs. The institue has facilities, hostel, cafe, auditorium, good library, sports, wifi, convenience store, ac classrooms. The campus is surrounded by greenery.

As per past students reviews, placements are good for marketing field.

Hi aspirant,

UPES hands down. There is no comparison between the two schools. The College of Management & Economics Studies of UPES provides way better internships, certifications, industry recognised degrees, domain tailored MBAs, and finally, better job offers. They hold around 95% placement stats and serious students have landed up in Crisil, KPMG, Amazon, etc. with 6 digit salaries, which in a few cases exceeds those of IIMs. Generally, ROI too would be better than that of an ICFAI or DBS for most pupils. It is true UPES is not in the league of IIMs and other top privates, but then again it is not in the league of those like DBS. So if fees is not an issue for you, and you manage to clear the entrance procedures, UPES of course is a better option.

hope this may help you

best of luck

Doon Business School is an average college for management education but since you've a decent CAT percentile so you can look out for some better options. You can check out the following colleges
  • BIMTECH Noida
  • XISS Ranchi
  • Prin LN Welingkar Institute of Management Development and Research Bangalore
  • IMT Nagpur and Hyderabad
  • IMI Kolkata
  • NDIM New Delhi
  • JIMS Rohini
  • ICFAI Business School
  • Globsyn Business School Kolkata
These are pretty good colleges and you can easily get a good company with an average compensation package of 6 lakhs. They also offer good ROI. Though some of the colleges like BIMTECH and ICFAI Business School charge a little higher fees which is 12lakhs and 14.1 lakhs respectively but plethora of reputed companies visit the campus offering high salaries.
For Doon Business School, though the fees is less than 5 lakhs but the placements are not up to the mark and with your percentile you can go for a better college.

All the best

College Infrastructure

Campus is well equipped with gadgets such as digital classrooms, library, and IT labs but few of the technology facilities are old. Wi-Fi facility exists but AI-integrated labs and cloud computing facilities will be helpful for the students.

A well maintained academic environment and beautiful campus.
