Dear Maverick,

For the Aptitude test you will be tested on your English, Math skills, as well as Logic and General Knowledge.
It is multiple choice questions and we do have negative marking.

Thanks.




Hi Rutty,

Can you please throw some light on the aptitude test ?
It would be really helpful for the candiadates if we get to know some details like the number of questions asked, negative marking etc.
The best would be if you post a sample paper on this thread .

Thanks.

Hi Rutty,

B.Tech. - 7.5 CGPA(Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology) in 2006.
Currently working in Persistent Systems Pvt. Ltd as a Software Engineer.(Work-Ex : 13 months)
CAT 2007 : 87 percentile

Is my profile fine to apply?

I am interested in the Jan 2008 intake. My CAT score is not good so I'll definitely need to apply for your internal aptitude test. So whats the procedure for the same . As your aptitude test is on Aug 12th so please reply as soon as possible.

hi,

i have applied for the Jan 2008 intake. My status online says wait list. How would i know the reasons my application is under waiting list? all i have done is applied online. no doucments sent as yet. I have not written my CAT or GMAT. I will be writing the SPJ Aptitude Test scheduled for August 12th. Is it bcoz of me not writing the test, that my application is under the wait list mode? also the site mentions the duration of the test as 1 hour. i needed to confirm tat once again.

the site also mentions math, english and gk being the core content for the test? wher can i get more information about the test? would appreciate help on my queries.

Thanks and Regards,

Apurva Shah

Hi Rutty,

Although I clear your cutoff for CAT i.e. 80 but do I stand a better chance to get shortlisted if I get a better score in your aptitude test. I read it on your site that you consider the best score out of two

Thanks.

Hi Rutty,
Thanks for the info...
One more question.... I am interested in Retail Management... but hav an experience in IT industry only.. so do u think i shud go for IT management rather than Retail management? And does the selection committee look if the candidate has relevant work exp?

Dear Sdinesh,

Work Experience includes only full time work after completion of graduation.Article ship/internship etc which form the integral part of the course study would not be counted as work experience.

Your profile looks ok, you can apply , whether you will be shortlisted or not will be the decision of the admissions committee.

Thanks

Dear Apurva,

Since you have not given us any scores that could be one of the reasons that you are on wait list, once test results are out then the score will be collated with your application form.

The test is for One hour , multiple choice questions, we have negative marking and you will be tested on Maths ,logics, English and GK.

Thanks.

Hi rutty,
I have applied for the january intake of GMBA and i have been kept on the waitlist. Regarding this i would like to know how much time would it take for me to know if i have been called for the evaluation stage ?? Secondly how can i know about the reasons for me being on the waitlist ??

Also i have recieved a mail inviting me to the sp jain interactive sessions to be held. Do these interactive sessions have any relevence to the admission procedure ?

Dear Sauri,

As long as you meet all our criteria you will be short listed for the Evaluation stage, your chances will depend upon your profile and the decision of the admissions committee.

When we say we will take the best score , it means that a candidate has the opportunity to give us more than one score and we would consider the best of the scores.

Our cut off is 80 percentile and above, as long as you meet this criteria it is fine.should you wish to take the test again you can , and between the two scores we will take the best score.

Hope I have answered your query.

Thanks

Dear Sdinesh,

One of our criteria is that you need to have relevant experience in whatever specialization you are applying for. However this is not the only criteria that you are short listed on.

The decision whether you should go in for IT or RM is up to you.

Thanks

Hi

Iam Sajith Kurup, currently working in a company called Symphony Services in Bangalore. i earn 5 lakhs per annum right now and i was planning to do an MBA from S P Jain Dubai. I have 19 months of experience as of today. I have a few questions for which i needed answers so that i can make a decision. My questions are as follows:

1) What kind of salary can i expect after completing the course, in India and abroad as i am earning 5 Lakhs now.

2) A lot of blogs and ex S P Jain Dubai students say that the course is not worth 15 Lakhs whats your take on it.

3) What will be the Living expense in Dubai and Singapore on a monthly basis in Indian Rupees.

4) How good a course is this for freshers and what kind of salaries can they expect.

I have huge respect for S P Jain and want to join this one year course as it suits my reqirements perfectly, but reading a lot of blogs and talking to some ex students have put me in doubt so please clear all my questions so that i am in a better frame of mind to make my decision.

Thanks & Regards

Sajith

Hi,

Thanks for rolling this thread.
I had given CAT in 2005 Nov (86%). Can i use it for Jun-07 intake? Other credentials. Or do you think i may stand a better chance if i take CAT 2007 and arrive at the same percentile?

Best Regards!

Dear Sajith,

With regards to your queries about placements pls follow these links,

S.P.Jain Center of Management - Dubai . Singapore
S.P.Jain Center of Management - Dubai . Singapore



Considering its a one year program conducted in 2 cities would give more exposure to the candidates as well as enable them to finish the course in a year and get back to work.This is a great advantage as compared to other MBA programs.I would suggest you go through the course curriculum and placements information and take a call on whether it is worth doing a course from S P Jain Dubai/Singapore.

It is normal to spend AED 600 in Dubai (Approx.7500 INR) /SGD 450 in Singapore (Approx.13500 INR) towards food and other expenses on a monthly basis.


Thanks.

Dear Gaba,

The reason why you are wait listed could be because that you are falling short on anyone of the criteria.The wait list is screened from time to time as and when the need be by the admissions committee and students are put through to the evaluation stage.There is no fixed time frame for this.

Interactive session do not have any relevance to the admissions procedure.These sessions are normally conducted so that you can get more information about the course and also clear all the queries you would have.

Thanks
