With a long-term aim at IIM A, B, C BA Program Eco Pol Science at Mata Sundari DU or TAPMi BBA or Azim Prem JI BA Eco Hons Already selected in the above colleges. Interview and result awaited for IIM Sirmaur BMS and IIM Sambhalpur BMS Which one will be the best option? Got selected but left NMIMS BBA Advertising and Branding, BBA Navi Mumbai, KREA IPM and Nirma IPM. Already planning for the second round of DU for BBE from Gargi. If not selected, you must choose from Azim Premji BA Eco, TAPMI BBA (fee paid), or the BA Program from Mata Sundari. Also, is an English score of 203 and GAT 140 in CUET enough for the IIM Sambhal undergraduate program? Which of these 3 is more beneficial in the long term? Planning to work for 3 to 5 years after graduation. That's why I'm not interested in IPM
Since your goal is to get into top IIMs (A, B, C) through the CAT route after graduation, and not through IPM, here’s the best option:
- Mata Sundari College (DU) – BA Economics Hons
Best for CAT prep: Delhi University has a strong academic base and gives enough time for CAT preparation.
Economics Hons is well respected by IIMs.
DU students often do well in CAT due to strong peer competition.
Low fee, great ROI.
- TAPMI BBA
Known for business exposure, but it’s a private institute, and TAPMI is more known for PGDM, not UG.
Costlier than DU.
You may be able to convert to their PGDM directly, but it won’t help for IIM A/B/C.
- Azim Premji University – BA Economics
Good for social sector and research.
Not ideal if you want corporate MBA via CAT.
Focus is more on development, not business.
- IIM Sambalpur BMS
It's new and doesn't have the brand weight like IIM A/B/C yet.
Since you’re not interested in IPM, this won’t align with your plan.
