Hi Mansi!

First of all, congratulations on getting a call for GD-PI from IPE, Hyderabad. You would seem to have a really good and since the MAT cut off for this college is 94 percentile, you have already crossed that milestone too.

Going by your profile, it shouldn't be a problem in converting the call if your GDPI goes well enough. It need not be exceptional but once should also make sure that it isn't downhill. The competition for management seats are high and thus it is advisable for you to buckle up and prepare most of the current affairs, your aspirations after an MBA, a sound knowledge about your work-related stuff and also about the undergraduate program. Make sure that you give them enough fodder material to ask questions upon and keep the interview running in your favor. That should work in your favor.

The fees of the college along with hostel and other charges can come up to 11 lakhs and the median package is around 5 lakhs. They have different courses like Retail marketing, banking, and financial services, Human resource management and international business. Before you enter in please make sure that you're aware of what you want to pursue because once you choose, you'd be specialized in the same and changing the course would be difficult. Regarding the placements, please talk or get in touch with the alumni over LinkedIn to understand the inside scenario of the college, as most of the data available online could widely be overshadowed.

Though the college is considered as one of the best in AP and Telangana, there are other colleges which can give a high return on investment and it would be wise if you could check out the same. Please read reviews on other platforms too and make a decision. Right now, if you've made up your mind to do an MBA because of any reason whatsoever, then start preparing for GDPI as soon as possible.

If you have great scores at the academic level, it is also advisable for you to attempt for CAT/MAT once again next year because most of the colleges would give you a call based on decent CAT scores and academics, like IIM Indore and IIM Bangalore. Your work experience will also add to the advantage.

Good luck! Feel free to contact for further queries.

Hello Mansi

You need to have more than 94 percentile in your MAT exam to qualify for IPE management program. You have already received a call that means you have crossed the required benchmark to get the admission. So you need not worry about cut off now. Instead you should practice for group discussions and personal interview. Hone your soft skills and do well to grab a seat there.

Good luck for your career ahead.
