Hey Surya Abhishek.....

The IMUCET generally reveals the rank that student secures instead of their marks. If you want to get a good lMU campus, you should get a rank of approx between  less than 1500 also the same applies for getting into IMU Chennai

Hello Sumedh,

See it depends upon company to company. If you got a sponsorship from a company who already have their college then you have to go to theirs college this type of companies are Anglo Eastern, Great Eastern etc. But if you're getting sponsorship from a company who doesn't have it's own College then you have to go for the counselling of IMU.

Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask any query.
