Answer laterShould I opt to XISS Ranchi PGDM IT or take a drop this year according to situation. please suggest
Dear student,
I hope you are doing well. If u want to take a drop u are free to do so but I won't suggest u this. Taking drops can be create a gap between you and ur studies due to this you can loose touch with your studies and u may lack the interest to study again. If u can cope up than yes u can surely take a drop or else study hard.
Hope this helps!!
i have been selected for Admission in IMS Ghaziabad in pgdm marketing and IT.Today I got an offer from XISS Ranchi for pgdm rural management. I have already deposited 65000 to IMS ghaziabad which is refundable if declined. My parents want me to go to xiss ranchi but NGO and villages dont appeal me.
Hello aspirant,
If we compare IMS Gaziabad and Xiss ranchi for it's specific specialisation, then undoubtedly with past records rural management at xiss ranchi stands at a better position. Rural management may involve you in NGo and travelling to villages to work in those areas but that's not always the case. MBA graduates in rural management is also required in CSR wings of the corporate and public sector, livelihoods focused organisations, micro-finance institutions, small finance banks among others.But moreover it's your decision and you should choose the field which interest you the most. Also if you are taking admission this year, then I'll recommend you to please take college reputation in the industry into consideration as placements are going to be severally affected due to covid-19.
Good luck

Nirma Mba or Xiss Hr which should i join?
No offense against any institutes as both of this institute are very well known and have their own pros and advantages. But if I were about to choose, I would have gone with NIRMA UNIVERSITY, AHMEDABAD. It's ranked among the top 30 B-schools of India and is one of the best in the field as well as it has great faculty and educational facilities along with well equipped labs and infrastructure. The placement opportunities are also decent.
