I am an IT professional with 2.5+ Yrs of workex and good academics. I have been offered admission and i have accepted the same.I have also paid my confirmation fee for GMBA .
After going through your questions i felt compelled to reply. The reason i chose GMBA are as follows:
1> I know two students (one is a friend and one is a distant acquaintance) from GMBA (Retail and Finance) and both gave me a great feedback on the course.Not to mention both have very good profiles and academics.
2> Going through blogs and roadshows helped me gauge the course a bit better and it definitely sounded good.
3>International exposure (to a certain extent) will help in long term career goals as well.
4> SPJain Faculty + great visiting faculty.
5>Good placemnets record for the 04-5 and 05-06 batches.
I hope the above reasoning helps people clear their doubts on the kind of course and its quality.
On the other hand, It would be great if SPJain Dubai & Sing (Rutty in this case) would publish a bit more placement details and Alumi contacts such as:
>>>> Classification of Indian Job offers , and foreign offers. >>>> Classifiaction of AVG salaries in INDIA , DUBAI and Singapore. >>>> Latest (06-07) placement trends. >>>> Alumi contact numbers and profiles.
This would bring more transperancy to the whole process and furthur enchance GMBA and SPjain image.
"I think i have forgotten this before" - Its like haveing Dejavu and Amnesia at the same time.
Hi,
I have similar profile like you. I have 5 years of IT experience and majority of the same is in Banking domain.
I have chosen IT as specialization, though now I feels banking could have been more suitable. I already paid the initial advance and looking at the profile of students getting selected, I think I have made the right decision.
Placements is also a concern and I am also looking for absolute answer. Answer coming out is that, placement is there but compensation package depends upon your experience and skills.
Hi, Hardcopy application is just fine. PLs do not submit the application online as well if you are applying on paper. It would not be an issue regarding your aptitude test. thanks
Rutty, There seems to be a problem with the SUBMIT page in the online application form. I have sent an email to [email protected] and a cc to [email protected], however I still havn't received a reply. Could you please let me know how soon the problem will get resolved? Also i am sending a hard copy today....but i hope its not a problem later when i have tosubmit my 25th Feb aptitude test marks:)
Hi, If you are unable to attend the evaluations, you need to inform us by sending an email to [email protected] mentioning your inability to attend this round and to delete your name from the time slots ( if you have taken a time slot) and to consider you for the next round of evaluations. The date for the next round of evaluations has not yet been fixed.
thanks
I have alreday applied for 10th march as evaluation date. but due to some resons i think i may not be able to attend the eval process on that day. can i have it during last week of march. please help. i have already submitted the date. but call letter is yet to come.
Hi Kunal, Any requests for extension need to be sent as an official email to [email protected]. The Admissions Committee will then look into the same and we will revert back to you with their decision.
We do not have any placement agency working for us nor are we a placement agency. we have a dedicated team which comprises the placement cell working towards placing SPJCM students. Students could be placed either in Dubai,Singapore or India irrespective of where they complete their course. Companies can interview candidates via video conferencing facilities that we have at both our campuses. Students also play a role and form a placements committee You need to decide whtehr you wish to be in our placements or non-placements category. If you opt for non-placemetns then you would not be a part of the campus interviews.
For further details regarding placemtns pls red the post on this blog SP Jain Dubai and Singapore - Admission Queries
thanks'
Hi there, I have call for BM and have to send in 2500 USD as a confirmation amount by 2nd March Can this be extended by a week.
I have heard so much about SPJD (good and not so good) now i want to hear it from your words ... how good is it .. and then a few q
1 --> Is the placement Agency same in SPjain Mumbai and Dubai? If so would they place their own students first and then the dubai students
2 --> How are people placed ... in Sigapore and Dubai Simultaniously ..
3 --> If i assume i will get a better option while applying in companies in singapore would i be flown there for the interview if i am short listed
4 --> are students part of the placement agency (and roping in companies)
5 --> What is the current status of the last year batch .. from what i have heard that the placement week has started ...
6 --> I have a experience of 38 months in IT (woeking for a Bank) and now i am joining BM .. Can i talk with my ex company to take me back in the same company? (plus i want to try for other options also ... so should i say that i would need placement or not) and will this be considered as a out of campus placement
7 --> Can u direct me to a student who i currently pursuing BM and has a similar profile like mine ... so that we can have a more candid talk ...
It would be of gr8 help if u could respond to these queries .. it would help me take decission in time.
Dear Bhuwan, this is fine just remember to inform the staff at the venue about your train timings so that they keep the same in mind. thanks
Hello Rutty
I have selected evaluation slot of 11:30AM for 11th March. As per one of your replies who have said that one should plan to leave after 10:00pm. I have my last train at 9:30 pm from Andheri that means I will have to leave by 8:30-9:00 Will be it be OK if I book this otherwise I will have to wait for one day for the same train.
Dear Chetan, yes we do offer scholarships but we have not yet started accepting applications for the same. The amount of scholarship is on a case to case basis. Pls check our website in a months time or so for further updates regarding scholarships. thanks

If you are offering please let me know how to apply for the same and also the maximum scholarship offered by SP Jain.
Also if you are aware of any other external scholarships that we can apply for studying in SP Jain, please let me know about it.

During Filling the application forms in the section where we have to enter our Academic and Professional achivements, Do we need to list them down or write it as a paragraph??
I have an interview call for 10-11 march at SPJ mumbai...I needed to ask you is it possible to reschedule the interview as I may not be able to attend on those dates....
What are the next earliest dates on which Interview could be held
I am appearing for your Aptitude Test on 25/02/2007 at Mumbai.
I am also planning to appear for the GMAT around the 10th of March just as a backup since I have been studying for the same all this while.
I was wondering whether the people who do well as per your criteria on the 25th Feb Test stand a chance of appearing for the Evaluations on 10th March?
In case your reply is negative, then what are you considering a cut-off date for the scores to be posted for your next round of evaluations, ie, as I am planning to appear for GMAT on 10th, and I would be able to post the score on the same date, I hope that will not be late for consideration to the next round of evaluations? I would be posting my GMAT score to make doubly sure. In that case, I will give my GMAT earlier.

Dear Avdesh, Students who do well in this aptitude test could be called for evaluations on the 10-11 March. IF you take the GMAT on the 10th of March it would not be late to be considered for the next round of evaluations.
Thanks
