    The best two years of my life at Goa Institute of Management

    College Infrastructure

    GIM is one of the best B-school campuses in India with world-class infrastructure. It has all the facilities for the students a residential campus should be having. Most importantly the hostel food is comparatively good.

    Academics

    I have completed the PGDM Healthcare Management program of GIM in 2020. This program is considered as the best Healthcare Management course in the country where students come from very diverse backgrounds including B.Tech, BBA graduates apart from the Doctors and Pharma, and other medical graduates. The curriculum is well updated with vast industry exposure.

    Placements

    The quality of placements at GIM is impressive and it is getting better over the years. PGDM being the flagship course attracts recruiters from all over the industry almost. PGDM Healthcare is a new program but it has already attracted prominent recruiters from various domains of the healthcare industry and placements are improving every year.

    Value for Money

    GIM is a good value for money among the tier two b-schools in India for its outstanding infrastructure, campus life, good placements. Recently it has started PGDM in Big Data Analytics which is already creating a lot of buzzes among the industry recruiters.

    Campus Life

    This is the best thing about GIM. It is known as 'God's own campus' as it is established in nature's lap where you can feel the beauty of western ghat and clouds all over it in the morning from your own hostel room. It is a heavenly experience!

    Others

    Most importantly if you join GIM it will be two years in GOA which is really fascinating. GIM is known for it's Give Goa initiatives where every Thursday students of GIM visit various NGOs, orphanages, schools, etc. and work for them with social causes with the motto of giving back to the Goan community which is very close to my heart as a proud alumnus.

    Unforgettable Journey

    College Infrastructure

    GIM has one of the best Infrastructure. It has a state of the art library, tennis,basketball court, gymnasium, individual Wi-fi in hostels and a reasonably good food in cafetaria. A dedicated Finance lab with Thomson Reuters and live stock market index are there. However, since new courses are added, library needs to be expanded. Also, a dedicated Auditorium is required as Multi Purpose Hall gets blocked for big functions

    Academics

    The pedagogy includes a mix of Case Study and Experiential learning through activities. Case studies used in Harvard and other top B Schools are used. Industry talks and guest lectures happen regularly. Industry visits especially for Marketing people can be done. Since many Sales Manager roles come, this could be included in the curriculum. Also, more focus on Excel and Analytics can be made. Some Professors are extremely good, some will be average, although everyone come from top colleges.

    Placements

    The placement figures in the reports published are genuine. The Placecom team is unbiased, supportive and doesn't do favours to their friends like in other B-Schools. Top companies like RIL, JPMG, EY, Texas Instruments, Signify, Barclays, Infosys, Mahindra come to the campus. Details can be found the the report published. This year, apart from 2 students who opted out due to family business, all got placed in good companies. The average was 11.7 LPA with a very good median of 11.4 LPA.

    Value for Money

    The course will cost around 18-20 for 2 year. Add 2-3 lakh more on your personal expenses. You'll get an ROI after 2-2.5 year considering the average package.

    Campus Life

    Located at Sahyadri Hills in Western Ghats, it's one of the most beautiful campus in India. The college is always buzzing with lots of club and recreational activities in sports and courts. Students wil always be busy. There are nice places to sit down and eat at the midnight. Cleaning services and guards are very cooperative. The campus is a little isolated but there are lots of scenic spots available nearby and many new restaurants/cafes are coming up in the town.

    Others

    Life at GIM will be a roller coaster ride. You need to be immersed in it fully to relish it. At times it will be very tough and at certain times, it will be smooth sailing you won't even realize. We work hard and party hard. I have had few ups and downs. But, got placed in a FMCG sector which I wanted at a reasonable package.

    Value for Money

    Yes. There is a scholarship scheme too for meritorious students who have a diverse profile (although I do not know how CVs are shortlisted for this scholarship round). But any aspirant should fill up the application form really well. Make sure you highlight your experience or extra curricular if any. It is called the achiever's round.

    Campus Life

    The campus life itself offers a scope of peer learning. There is a diverse mix of people from almost every state of India as well as students are both freshers and experienced. Also the male female ratio is +- 50% each year.

    Others

    Gim is an experience which prepares you for the life ahead. Having a batch size of 250 approx and with an alumni base which is 25+ year plus, it is a global network of closely knit people. Even after college, the relationships you built here stays with you for a long long time.

    Have a question related to GIM Goa ?

    Hii,

    If banking, finance, and insurance are of interest to you, pick GIM Goa (BFSI); it has a strong brand and excellent industry connections.
    If you enjoy managing factories, supply chains, or logistics, SIOM Nashik (Operations) is the best option. It's a specialized field with excellent operations.
    Overall, IMI Bhubaneswar (PGDM) is respectable, but not as good as SIOM or GIM.

    GIM Goa (BFSI) is the best choice overall because of its superior brand, placements, and potential for expansion.
    SIOM Nashik is the best for operations only.

    Is it worthy to study MBA Finance from NIA PUNE or NIBM PUNE rather than from GLIM Chennai or GIM Goa.

    Hello,

    Studying MBA Finance from NIA Pune or NIBM Pune can be valuable if you aim to specialize in insurance, banking, or financial services. These institutes focus on niche domains, offering strong industry connections, sector-specific curriculum, and placement opportunities in reputed organizations within their respective fields. However, if you're looking for broader career prospects and better brand recognition, GLIM Chennai or GIM Goa may be better choices. Both are well-regarded for their comprehensive programs, diverse peer groups, and strong placement records across various sectors.

    Hello friends, 10- 85 12- 93.8 B.com(2021)- 83 Work experience - 14 months CAT raw score - 55, VARC-0, LRDI-26, QA-29 What calls can I expect and I am targeting for GIM, GLIM Chennai, IMT Ghaziabad, IMI Delhi. Any other calls can I expect and Is there any chance of getting IIM SAP call? Please guide

    Hello Varun,

    Based on your CAT raw score and profile, here's a breakdown of your potential calls and your chances for different institutes:

    1. GIM Goa, GLIM Chennai, IMT Ghaziabad, IMI Delhi:

    • GIM Goa : With a score of 55, GIM typically looks for candidates with a higher percentile. However, you may still get a call if your overall profile, including your academic background (93.8% in Class 12, work experience), is strong.

    • GLIM Chennai : GLIM has a competitive cutoff, but with a solid academic record and work experience, there may be a chance, especially if you belong to a diverse background.

    • IMT Ghaziabad : Your chances with a score of 55 are slim, as IMT usually looks for a higher percentile. However, if you have an impressive profile and high academic scores, there may still be a slim possibility.

    • IMI Delhi : Similar to IMT, IMI Delhi has high cutoffs and competitive selection criteria. However, work experience and other factors like diversity can sometimes offset a lower CAT score.

      2. IIM SAP (Special Admission Program) :

    • The IIM SAP is typically for candidates with significant work experience or other unique factors. Your 14 months of work experience could be beneficial, but your CAT score of 55 is on the lower side, making it unlikely to receive an IIM SAP call. However, if you have other outstanding features in your profile (e.g., exceptional academic performance, leadership qualities, etc.), you might still stand a chance.

      3. Other Possible Calls :

    • UPES Dehradun : Known for considering work experience and unique profiles, UPES could be a potential option for you.

    • Bimtech Noida : You could expect a call here, considering your work experience and overall profile.

    • XIMB Bhubaneswar : This institute also considers profiles with good work experience, and you may stand a chance despite your score.

    Overall, you can expect a call from institutes that weigh work experience and academic performance heavily, but you should also be prepared for lower-tier institutes in terms of CAT score cutoffs. Ensure you target institutes that match your profile for better chances.


    I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.
